In each civilized society there is freedom of religion. Many are wondering why they were baptized in childhood or imposed other rituals, not allowing to make their own choice? In some cases, people show a desire to change the religion on the one that is more suitable for them in the worldview.

The Adepts of the Muslim Faith are convinced that only she is true. According to their statements, the messages of God, transferred through the prophets of Jesus, reached our days in a distorted form. The last of the prophets was Muhammad. It was he who passed to people exact information about God. Therefore, it is believed that Muslims are truly believers. The desire to change faith may arise for various reasons, for example, by internal beliefs, as a result of marriage with a representative of another religion, etc. If you want to accept Islam, think about this step. Be prepared for what you have to regularly perform certain rituals and follow new traditions.

Before making a final decision, check out the Quran - the Holy Book of Muslims. You must take faith in the heart along with its laws and scriptures. Realize all the responsibility of the transition to a new faith. The procedure for adopting Islam is very simple, but it is desirable to go to Imam in the nearest mosque. Tell him about my intention. He can ask you why you decided to make a choice in favor of Islam, so prepare the answer in advance. If you are already adhering to any religion, you need to abandon it aloud.

On that day, when you are going to take Islam, the body is well. Purchase clean and if desired, elegant clothes. This ritual is a symbol of the purity of your intentions and the occurrence of the holiday. To accept Islam, it is enough to pronounce a simple shakhada, which is the most important out of five pillars of faith. She says: "I believe with all my heart that there is no God besides Allah, I also believe and confirm it in the words that Muhammad is his prophet." Learn this phrase in Arabic and say it out loud: "Ashkhadu Alla Ilyaha Illlalyah. Va Ashkhad Anna Mukhammadan Abduha Va Rasuluh. "

You can read Shahada absolutely anywhere, even at home. But it is preferable to voice it into a mosque, in the presence of two men. If necessary, they will be able to confirm your adoption of a new faith. If so while you can't do this, say Shahada before yourself, and then with witnesses.

You should know that after the adoption of faith, the Koran will become the main leadership in all life spheres. Read it well, pray five times a day, regularly communicate with other believers and come to the mosque on Fridays. If you want, you can find a spiritual mentor who will teach you properly pray and read the Quran. It is worth noting that for beginners, non-compliance with the Scriptures for ignorance says goodbye, but they must be learned.

The rite is called "Hajja", it is held on the twelfth month of the Muslim calendar in special white clothing. In Mecca, it is necessary to bypass around Kaaba (Muslim shrine in the form of the Cup) seven times and kiss the black stone, which is in the Cup.
Accepting Islam, be prepared for the fact that some surrounding can negatively treat your religion. Do not give in public prejudice - listen only inner voice. If you regularly spend time with believers, you can develop a powerful immunity to the negative attitude of other people.
