The Shahadah and The Conditions of the Shahadah.
 
The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Islām is built upon five: The declaration that there is none worthy of worship except Allāh and that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allāh…”(Bukhārī and Muslim)
 
The first pillar is the duty to declare the two great beliefs of Islām: these are to believe in the Oneness of Almighty God in worshipping Him alone and in the Prophethood of Muhammad as the final Prophet and best example to be followed.
 
The Shahādah is to utter: Ash-hadu an laa ilaaha illallaah, wa ash-hadu anna Muhammadan ‘abduhu wa rasooluhu (I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allāh alone – and I bear witness that Muhammad is His slave and messenger).
 
And to follow the  conditions that must be implemented alongside this In’shaa’Allah.
 
I feel this resource is so important for Muslim children as many do not know that the Shahadah is not something we just say, it is something we live by. We must believe with certainty that it is the truth and we must not have any doubt with in this statement of belief.
 
The only way we can  do this is by learning exactly what it means and also learning all of the conditions that are attached to it In’shaa’Allah.
Many Muslim parents do no know about the conditions of the Shahadah. So maybe this is something families can learn together.
I hope this resource benefits you and your family In’shaa’Allah.
