Believe
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.
Foundations of Faith
Faith has six pillars: belief in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day and divine decree. Tawhid means worshipping Allah alone.
Quran
The Quran is Allah’s revealed word and the Muslim’s main guide. Read it often, learn its meaning in your language, and gradually learn Arabic.
