lmplication for the Non-Muslim

All6h  (God)  makes it  incumbent  on  Muslims  to  convey  His
message  to  all  humanity  in  its  final  form,  the 
Qur'En. We are
not  talking  here  about  conversion,  merely  enlightenment.
Indeed,  to  turn  to  IslEm,  the religion  of  all  the prophets,  is not
to  turn  one's  back  on  preceding prophets. It  does not  involve
changing  one's  basic  spiritual nature.  In the 
Q[r'dn, 
pure  human
nature  is  a "Muslim"  nature,  which knows its  Lord  and wishes
to  submit  to  Him.  The 
Qur'En  states:  "There  shall  be  no
compulsion  in 
[acceptance 
ofl  the  religion.  The right  course
has  become  clearfrom  the  wrong. "(Q  2:256)


How  Does  One Become  a Muslim؟
To become  a Muslim  a person  simply needs  to  pronounce  the
shahadah  (declaration of  faith)  with  sincere  conviction;  "Ash
hadu  al-la  ilaha  ill-Allhh,  wa  ash-hadu  anna  Muhammadan
rasululldh  !'.  This  means,  "l  testifu  that  there  is  no  deity
fwort]ry 
ofworshipJ  except  AIlAh,  and I  testify that  Muhammad
is  the  messenger  of  Alldh."
