11. The Remembrance of Allah (Thikre)
a. Remembrance - Although it is essential to state the Declaration of Faith during one‟s
initiation into Islam, stating it frequently is highly recommended. It means that one accepts
the Oneness of Allah and the Prophethood of Muhammad (May Allah bless him and give
him peace.) One can also continuously repeat the first statement as a means of
contemplation.
“I declare that there is no god except Allah.”
“Ash hadu enla ellahah ella Allah.”
b. Worship - Aside from believing in your heart, the next best form of worship is the prescribed
pattern of prayer (salat.)
c. Glorification - The best way to give glory to Allah is to say:
“Exalted are You. We are unable to glorify You as You glorify Yourself.”
