===[[Quran]]===
The Islamic creed (known as the shahādah) is the declaration of belief in the unity of God and the prophethood of Muhammad. Its recitation is considered one of the Five Pillars of Islam. When sincerely stated aloud, one is considered to have officially declared oneself a convert to Islam.
In Islam, there are five daily obligatory prayers for all Muslims. Many Muslims find salat the most important part of their faith.
