Shahada
Muslims believe that there is only one god called Allah. Allah sent an angel,Gabriel
To a man named Muhammad who lived in saudi Arabia. The angel told Muhammad
That allah wanted to teach others.
There are no pictures or statues of Allah or the prophet muhammad inside a mosque.
Instead the walls and ceilings are decorated with beautiful patterns and writing.
Shahada is the main belief for muslim people because it shows their faith.
People say that the english words are there is no god but Allah muhammad is allahs
Messenger .But other Muslims believe that it is right to say that there is no god but the
one god Allah . The meaning is one god for mankind.
