The question text was not published separately; the title stands in for it.

Is namaz more important than any of the other pillars of Islam?

Answer

The first and most fundamental pillar of Islam is Imaan (faith). Thereafter comes Salaah (Namaaz). Thus Salaah is more important than the other pillars, besides obviously Imaan.
