I always thought they were exactly the same concept, just rephrased differently ..but I found out they’re actually different ..can you explain
here are the pillars of faith?
1- Faith in Allah (SWT):
The first of the pillars of faith is to have faith in Allah (SWT). A Muslim, first, believes that Allah (SWT) does exist and is One; this universe is a work of His. He has no partner or match either in His Person, or in His attributes, and His actions. His attributes do not resemble those of the creatures.
2- Faith in Angels:
Another pillar of faith is to have faith in angels. Allah Almighty has incorporeal beings called angels. These beings glorify Allah Almighty, besides they perform other duties consigned to them. These beings, who never rebel against Allah, are not bound to test; their natures are pure, they are sinless and their places (before Allah) are stable.
3- Faith in Books:
One of the pillars of faith is to have faith in Divine Books. Although man knows the existence and Oneness of Allah Almighty through reason, he cannot know what His orders and prohibitions are, how he can perform his duty of worship for Him, in short what Allah Almighty is pleased with, and not. For this reason, Allah Almighty sent down the Divine Books. One hundred of the Divine Books came in the form of scriptures while the four came in the form of books. These four Divine Books, in sequence, are The Psalm of David, The Torah, The Bible, and The Qur’an.
4- Faith in Prophets:
Another pillar of faith is to have faith in prophets. That Allah Almighty warns people with a prophet who is himself a human being is a divine law.
Faith in the Hereafter: One of the most important pillars of faith is to have faith in resurrection after death and in the life in the Hereafter. Allah Almighty, who bestows both material and heavenly bounties upon them in this worldly life, will be bestowing again both material and heavenly infinite bounties upon His servants who passed the test on earth.
6- Faith in ‘Predestination and Decree’:
One of the pillars of faith is to have faith in Qadar (Predestination and Decree) is examined in two ways. The first; the ordaining and creation of all beings in the knowledge of Allah (SWT) in terms of “person, shape, and all features.” This field is out of testing.

1 pillar
5 pillars is what hold your religion from falling, just like you are building a building and those 5 pillars are holding that building.
1) believe and witness that there is no God but Allah and Muhammad is his prophet
2) perform your salah (praying)
3)fasting
4) Zakah (required charity)
5) perfom Haj (visit Mecca) if you have the ability to to
The 5 pillars are all action. Say the shahada, praying 5 obligatory prayers, Fasting in Ramadan, Paying Zakat, Performing Hajj.
The 6 pillars you have to believe in your heart, it’s not a physical action like the 5 pillars.
