The Shahada
The Shahada is the Muslim profession of faith and the first of the Five Pillars of Islam. The word Shahada in Arabic means testimony. The Shahada is the Muslim creed, and declaration of belief in the oneness of God and acceptance of Muhammad as Gods Prophet: There is no god but God, Muhammad is the messenger of God La Ilaha Illallah, Muhammad Rasul Allah Muslims recite the Shahada when they wake up in the morning, and before they go to sleep at night. It is repeated five times every day in the call to prayer in every mosque. A single honest recitation of the Shahadah in Arabic is all that is required for a person to convert to Islam.

Arabic Script and Art


Arabic script is a form of art. It is featured prominently on paintings, ornaments, coins, jewelry, and walls of buildings in the Muslim world. Throughout history, Muslim artisans produced handcrafted items considered the most elegant in the world that included Koranic messages.

Obamas Islamic Ring


The first half of the Shahada is the most powerful part. It is enough for a Muslim to read the first half only, as the second half comes to mind immediately. There can be no doubt that someone wearing the inscription There is no God except Allah, is fully committed to Islam and has a very close connection to Islamic beliefs, the Islamic religion, and Islamic society to which this statement is so strongly attached. There is no God but Allah is a blessed statement in Islam. By wearing this religious statement on ones hand, it connects the person to Islam. It is worn in hopes that Allahs protections would be with the person, in hopes of gaining favor with Allah. As Obama has worn this ring constantly since his youth, there can be no doubt that Obama is aware of what is written on his ring, and that he knows the exact meaning of these words.
