Becoming a Muslim

Even on a small island like Dominica, we have people who visit the masjid and request to accept the Declaration of Faith (Shahādah).

The procedure towards becoming a Muslim is very simple. All one has to do is to pronounce the Declaration of Islamic Faith. This, however, must be done with conviction of belief for it to be a valid acceptance of the faith and lifestyle that is Islam.

The masjid provides this conversion (Reversion) service and it is usually carried out by Imam (Sheik Idris) who speaks with individuals before assisting them in the Arabic transliteration of the Shahādah, which they then follow with the English translation and a description of the main articles of faith which they then choose to accept.

Literature and advice are made available to new Muslims and many return to learn more and all are welcome. Classes to teaching new Muslims about prayer is also available upon request.

Anyone wishing to accept Islam or just wishing to learn more may visit the masjid office during the week.
