What Is Islam?
Faith has six pillars: belief in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day and divine decree. Tawhid means worshipping Allah alone. Say the Shahada with understanding and sincere faith. No certificate is required. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah. Build daily life around the five prayers, remembrance of Allah, halal food and earnings, good character, family rights, honesty, and avoiding what Allah has forbidden.
