First Kalima

The first kalima, also known as the “Tayyabah” or “Kalima-e-Tauheed,” is a declaration of faith in Islam. It is considered the most important and fundamental of the five kalimas, which are recited by Muslims worldwide as a way of affirming their faith in the oneness of Allah and the prophethood of Muhammad (peace be upon him). The first kalima consists of two simple phrases, “La ilaha illa Allah” (There is no god but Allah) and “Muhammad Rasul Allah” (Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah), and serves as a powerful reminder of the central beliefs of Islam.
