XV. HOW TO BECOME A MUSLIM

Each of the following religions has requirements for entrants:

To be a Jew one must: 1. Deny the prophethood or divinity of Prophet.
Jesus, 2. Deny the Gospel, 3. Deny the prophethood of Prophet Muhammad
and 4. Deny the Qur’an.
To be a Christian one must: 1. Believe that God has a partner, a mother, and
a son, 2. Believe that God became a man and descended on earth to die for
the sins of people, 3. Deny the prophethood of Muhammad and 4. Deny the

To be a Muslim one must: 1. Bear witness that no one deserves
worship except God, 2. Reject all false gods, 3. Believe in all prophets
including Moses and Jesus ending with Mohammed (mercy and peace of
God be upon them all) and 4. Believe in all scriptures revealed to them (in
their original form).
One can become a Muslim if he/she does the following:
• Believes that God is one and distinct from his creation.
• Truthfully bears witness that there is no god worthy of worship but
God, and Muhammad (mercy and peace of God be upon him) was a
messenger of God.
• Believes that Jesus Christ, the son of Mary, was only a prophet of
God.
• Believes in the six pillars of faith and worships God alone, without
any intermediary or partner, in the way taught by Prophet
Muhammad (mercy and peace of God be upon him).
• Makes the declaration openly in front of witnesses.
May the light of truth shine in our minds and hearts. May it lead us
to peace and certitude in this life and eternal bliss in the Hereafter.
