    Taking my Shahada.

    Report bad ads?

    ok, so today, I'm ready,I'm ready to submit myself to Allah, I know it's recommended to have at least 2 people to witness my Shahada but as I don't have anyone I'll probably take another infront of fellow Muslims at a later date, but today, I'm ready to submit myself, with you, my new Brothers and Sisters, as my witnesses.

    I will post a text Shahada, but just so you all know I am saying it out loud (probably as you read this).

    لا اله الا الله محمد رسول الله

    (lâ ilâha illallâh, Muḥammadur rasûlullâh)
    There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.

    Thank you for reading this and Welcoming me into Islam my Brothers and Sisters.

    Allahu akbar!!

    Brother, congratulations. This is a major decision in your life but I think you will not regret it!

    It's okay! Remember Islam came in stages. For example the issue of intoxication. At first it was only haram to be intoxicated during prayers. But other wise it was okay. But when liquor was scarce and it became easy to ban it fully, it was. And now alcohol and intoxication is haraam! But it happened over a period so that the people could adjust. So understand that this religion is made to be an easy-to-follow religion and a simple religion. Try your best to not sin but we understand if you do!

    Allahu Akbar!

    Prayer is non negotiable. here's a link to a video on prayer:

    http://www.kalamullah.com/new-muslims.html

    until you learn how to pray, you can follow someone else [which makes it a good idea to find the nearest mosque] OR:

    repeat in each position [as shown in the vid]:

    Sub-han Allah, wa-Al-hum-du-lillah wa-La ilaha il lallah, wa-Allahu Akbar

    Fajr is 2 rakah about 1.5 hours before sunrise
    Duhr is 4 rakah about .5 to 1 hour after the sun is at it highest noon pos.
    Asr is 4 rakah halfway from duhr to sunset
    Mahgrib is 3 Rakah just past sunset
    Isha is about 1.5 hours after Mahgrib

    here's a link for prayer times:

    http://www.islamicity.com/prayertimes/

    here's a link for some great videos from Bilal Philips:

    http://www.bilalphilips.com/bilal_pa...sk=view&id=288

    here's some great audio by Mufti Ismail Menk:

    http://www.muftimenk.co.za/Downloads.html

    here's the homepage for Kalamullah:

    http://www.kalamullah.com/index.html

    May Allah guide you and strengthen you in the Faith!
    Taking my Shahada.

    Had the non-believer known of all the Mercy which is in the Hands of Allah, he would not lose hope of entering Paradise, and had the believer known of all the punishment which is present with Allah, he would not consider himself safe from the Hell-Fire
