In the name of Allah, the Merciful, the Compassionate,
Praise be to Allah, Lord of all the Worlds
Belief consist of belief in Allah,
His angels, His books, His messengers, the last day, and
belief that the Decree both the good of it and the evil of
it, the sweet of it and the bitter of it is from Allah.
MESSENGER
1. And we are certain that Muhammad (may Allah bless him and
grant him peace) is his chosen Servant and elect Prophet
(peace be upon him) and His Messenger with whom is well
pleased,
2. And that he is the Seal of the Prophets and the Imam of
the God fearing and most honoured of all the Messengers and
the Beloved of the Lord of all the worlds.
3. Every claim to Prophethood after Him is falsehood and
deceit.
4. He is the one who has been sent to all the jinn and all
the mankind with truth and guidance and with light and
illumination.
5. The Ascent through the heavens (al-miraj) is true. The
Prophet, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, was taken
by night and ascended in his bodily form, while awake,
through the heavens, to whatever heights Allah willed for
him. Allah ennobled him in the way that He ennobled him and
revealed to him what He revealed to him, "and his heart was
not mistaken about what it saw" (53:11). Allah blessed him
and granted him peace in this world and the next.
6. The Pool (al-hawd), which Allah has granted the Prophet
(peace be upon him), as honour to quench the thirst of his
Community on the Day of Judgment, is true.
7. The intercession (al-shafaa), which is stored up for
Muslims, is true, as related in the hadiths.
8. We believe in the angels, and the prophets, and the
books, which were revealed to the messengers, and we bear
witness that they were all following the manifest Truth.
9. And the whole of what is proven from the Prophet (peace
be upon him) regarding the Sharia and the explanation (of
the Quran and of Islam) is true.
10. We believe in all these things. We do not make any
distinction between any of the messengers, we accept as true
what all of them brought.
