وَأَنَا أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ، وَأَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ، رَضِيتُ بِاللَّهِ رَبًّا، وَبِمُحَمَّدٍ رَسُولاً، وَبِالإِسْلاَمِ دِينًا.
"Wa anaa ash-hadu an laa ilaaha illallaahu wahdahu laa shareeka lah, wa anna Muhammadan 'abduhu wa Rasooluh, radheetu billaahi Rabbaa, wa bi Muhammadin Rasoolaa, wa bil-Islaami deenaa."
Nami pia ninashuhudia kwamba hapana mola apasaye kuabudiwa kwa haki ila Mwenyezi Mungu Mmoja pekee hana mshirika, na kwamba Muhammad ni mja Wake na Mtume Wake. Nimeridhika na Mwenyezi Mungu kuwa Mola wangu, na Muhammad kuwa Mtume wangu, na Uislamu kuwa dini yangu.
And I bear witness that none has the right to be worshipped except Allah alone, without partner, and that Muhammad is His slave and Messenger. I am pleased with Allah as my Lord, Muhammad as Messenger, and Islam as my religion.
Mwenye kuisoma baada ya muadhini kutoa shahada anasamehewa madhambi yake yaliyotangulia.
