Ideally it is best if you say the Shahadah in front of Muslim witnesses. Normally, if there is a mosque nearby, it is best to say it there, so that after saying your shahadah, you will have someone to guide you and help you in matters of Islam. However, if there are no mosques/Muslims nearby, you can say the shahadah yourself, without witnesses, in front of Allah, and that makes you just as Muslim as any other Muslim. Later, if you are able to, you can repeat it in front of Muslim witnesses.
Please let us know if we can help you in any other way.

It only takes a matter of seconds to say the Shahada, a few words spoken with sincerity. the only required witness is Allaah(swt). Although most who say the Shahadah alone will seek to repeat it at a Mosque in front of witnesses. Short simple words that mean so much if you believe them to be true.

It only takes a matter of seconds to become a Muslim, but it takes a lifetime to be a Muslim.
