I have a friend who has started listening to the Quran as well as practicing some of the codes under \”a code of practice for Muslims in the West.\” In addition, he has recently inquired about the process of converting to Islam and would like to practice the phrases needed to be said in Arabic. Can you provide this language in phonetic English as well as the direct translation?

As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatullahi Wa Barakatuh,
We hope this answer finds you in high Islamic spirit.
Below is what he/she has to say to convert to Islam, along with the Arabic phrases and their translation.
اشهد ان لا اله الا الله واشهد ان محمدا رسول الله.
(( Ash hado an La Ilaha Ila Allah,
Wa Ash hado Anna Muhamedan Rasul Allah ))
“I bear witness that there is no god but Allah and I bear witness that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is His last Messenger”.
