    The first pillar of Islam is the Shahada, which is the Muslim profession of faith that expresses the fundamental belief that Allah is the only God and Muhammad is his messenger. By reciting the Shahada, one proclaims their acceptance of this core tenet and their commitment to obeying all aspects of the Islamic faith.

    Five Pillars of Islam

    1. Shahada: Faith
    The shahada is the Muslim profession
    of faith, expressing the two simple
    fundamental beliefs that make one a
    Muslim.
    The word shahada in Arabic means ‘testimony.’
     The shahada is to testify to two things:
    (a)  Nothing deserves worship except God (Allah).
    (b)  Muhammad is the Messenger of God (Allah).
    "There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad
    is his messenger.“
    This is the basic statement of
    the Islamic faith: anyone who cannot recite
    this wholeheartedly is not a Muslim. When a
    Muslim recites this they proclaim: That
    Allah is the only God, and that Muhammad
    is his prophet.
    When a Muslim recites this they proclaim:
    That Allah is the only God, and that Muhammad is his
    prophet
    That they personally accept this as true
    That they will obey all the commitments of Islam in
    their life
    .  Muslims say this when they wake
    up in the morning, and before they
    go to sleep at night.  It is repeated
    five times in the call to prayer in
    every mosque.
