Six Kalimas

The Six Kalimas are six sentences that are very important to Muslims. They are considered the core teachings of Islam, which is one of the major world religions. These sentences are said in Arabic and they help people to learn and practice their faith.

The first Kalima is the Shahada, which is a declaration of faith. It is saying “There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad is his messenger.” This means that Muslims believe that there is only one God, named Allah, and that Muhammad is God’s messenger or prophet.

The second Kalima is called the Tawhid. It is saying “Allah is one.” This means that Muslims believe that Allah is the only true God, and that there is no other God besides him.

The third Kalima is called the Risalah. It is saying “Muhammad is the messenger of Allah.” This means that Muslims believe that Muhammad is the prophet who was sent by Allah to spread the teachings of Islam.

The fourth Kalima is called the Kalima Tayyabah. It is saying “I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and that Muhammad is His messenger.” This means that Muslims believe that Allah is the only true God and that Muhammad is his messenger or prophet.

The fifth Kalima is the Iman. It is saying “I have faith in Allah and His angels and His books and His messengers and in the Last Day.” This means that Muslims believe in Allah, His angels, His books and prophets, and in the judgment day when everyone will be judged by Allah.

The sixth Kalima is the Taqwa. It is saying “I take refuge in Allah from the evil of my own”. This means that Muslims try to be aware of Allah’s guidance, and ask for protection from becoming evil.
