| | Shahadah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | One of the earliest surviving translations of the Shahadah into a foreign language is in Greek, from the reign of al-Walid I (86-96 AH, 705-715 CE): Οὐκ ἔστι[ν θεὸς εἰ μὴ ὁ θεὸς μόνος·] Μααμὲ[τ ἀπόστολος θεοῦ] (Ouk esti[n theos ei mē ho theos monos;] Maame[t apostolos theou]). | | | Al-`Ilm (Knowledge of the meaning of the shahadah, its negation and affirmation) | | | It is considered correct to refer to previous figures, such as Jesus (in Arabic, Isa) as Messengers (rasul), and some groups (notably certain Sufi mystics) will amend the declaration to mention prior prophets whose names are found in the Qur'an. |

| | The Shahadah, therefore, cannot be the correct way to affirm faith as the name of the prophet Muhammad, besides God, is included in this attestation and also used in the salat prayers. | | | The Shahadah testimony that is recited by the Sunnis originates from Abu Hurairah and is recorded in the 'hadith' - the oral traditions attributed to the prophet Muhammad. | | | This testimony is called the Shahadah and according to Sunni belief it must be recited by every Muslim as an attestation of their allegiance to Islam. |

| | The ninth condition of the shahadah is that the Muslim adheres to the shahadah until he dies. | | | If a person makes the shahadah but does not love the shahadah and what it stands for, then, in fact, his faith is not complete. | | | In Surah al-Baqara, Allah clearly reminds us of this important aspect of the shahadah, the shahadah is not merely an affirmation but it is both and affirmation and a negation. |

| | The shahadah is one of the five "pillars of Islam." It is a short prayer: "There is no god but God; Muhammad is the Messenger of God." The four other pillars of Islam are prayer five times daily, fasting, alms-giving, and the pilgrimage to Mecca. | | | However, pious Muslims recite the shahadah throughout their lives, even as often as several times each day -- particularly in times of distress. | | | It is recited as one is dying, and if one cannot do so someone else may recite the shahadah for them. |

| | Sunni Islam’s Real Shahadah |
| | The only problem with this argument is that it fails to mention that the Shahadah found in the so-called sound narrations, found in those hadiths that are part of the sahih collections of Al-Bukhari and Muslim, do not limit the confession to Allah's unity and Muhammad's apostleship. | | | Some even amended the Shahadah, the profession of faith, to say: "There is no god but al-Lah and Jesus is His Messenger," which was technically correct but intentionally provocative. | | | Although currently still a small minority, there is a modern movement among Muslims that vigorously rejects such an assertion, denying that the Shahadah is an essential act or profession of the Islamic faith. |

| | Iman Way - Giving the Shahadah Through the Internet |
| | To illustrate, the verses of the Qur’an and the hadiths of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) indicate that saying “La illaha illa Allah” (there is no god but Allah) is a condition for one to embrace Islam. | | | The reason why a person seeking Islam has to repeat the Shahadah in Arabic is that faith in Islam is a confession by the tongue and conviction in the heart. | | | Furthermore, the scholars of Islam have unanimously agreed that Iman is a belief reposing in the heart and reflected through the verbal words (of Shahadah) and the religious observances. |

| | A Muslim does not ONLY bear witness or confess, while reciting his or her Shahadah that the reciter will not worship any another entity beside Allah. | | | Even the conceptual admission of a thought or belief that there IS another entity beside Allah (The God), negates the Shahadah of a True Believer. | | | Note: The literal translations provided by the translators; Yusuf Ali, Pickthall, Malik and Asad, for the Shahadah La illaha illallah has the philosophy of "double negation". |

| | .:The Institute of Interfaith Dialog:. |
| | In theory, all that is necessary for one to become a Muslim is to recite sincerely the short statement of faith known as the shahadah: I witness that there is no god but God [Allah] and that Muhammad is the Messenger of God. | | | Although in an historical sense Muslims regard their religion as dating from the time of Muhammad in the early 7th century ad, in a religious sense they see it as identical with the true monotheism which prophets before Muhammad, such as Abraham (Ibrahim), Moses (Musa), and Jesus (Isa), had taught. | | | The first of these pillars balances external action (the recitation of the shahadah) with internal conviction (although different groups within Islam have held different views about the relative importance of recitation and belief in the shahadah); the other four, although they take belief for granted, consist predominantly of external acts. |

| | The noblest death - Shahadah |
| | Sacrifice comes in many shapes, forms and levels, it can be performed through many different channels, but there is no doubt that the sacrificing of one's soul for the sake of Allah in order to defeat His enemies and support Islam is the very highest level. | | | When the time of Khalid (RA) came to depart from the world, he said, "I reached every possible place for Shahadah, but it was written in my fate that I should die of my bed. | | | Therefore, it comes as no surprise that these poignant prophetic words had such a great impact on the hearts of the pious chosen generation of the companions of the Prophet(SAW). |

| | Why has the Shahadah Changed? |
| | In both instances the affirmation is mentioned, one symbolizing the humility and honesty of submitting to God& will and the other to the hypocritical and desperate measures that some will take to save themselves. | | | So when a person converts he testifies to Islam by submitting to God and pronouncing his adherence to the message of the Prophet who invited him. | | | As a matter of fact Pharaoh does pronounce the shahadah but this did not make him a believer nor was his pronouncement accepted from him. |
