THe Shahada
This page is not about convincing you to become a Muslim or about convincing you take the Shahada.
Becoming Muslim is a very personal decision and should be one made by yourself after you have explored, read and looked for guidance from a knowlegdeable Muslim.
I have had a request just recently from a brother about taking the Shahada, so I decided to compile some information about this.
Like the rest of the site it's about sharing information and improving understanding.

The declaration of faith in Islam, which includes declaring your belief in One God (Allah) and also that you believe that the Prophet Muhammad is the last and final messenger of Allah. Also you believe and accept all the Prophets and their books before Muhammad (PBUH) including Adam, Abraham, Moses and Jesus (PBUH).
- This is the Arabic inscription for the Shahadah, the "declaration of faith" for every Muslim.
- The Shahada - La ilaha il lallah Muhammadur Rasoolullah - There is no god, but Allah; Muhammad (PBUH) is the prophet of God
- “I bear witness that there is no God but God (Allah – i.e. there is none worthy of worship but Allah), and Muhammad PBUH is the Messenger of Allah.”
- The Oneness of God for every Muslim is non-negotiable.
- When any Non-Muslim person accepts Islam and declares their faith by taking the Shahada, at any stage of their life, then irrespective of their previous beliefs and sins, Allah SWT promises that ALL the previous sins and transgressions of the reverted Muslim is forgiven by God.
- This image below does not belong to any group or organisation (as is portrayed in the media), but is the image of the Shahada. Even though this can be written and inscribed in any other colour or calligraphy I have specifically chosen this image, so there is no confusion about what this image means.
