Learn 6 Kalimas of Islam (Online Course)
Learn and Understand the 6 Kalimas of Islam
with Al Qalam Online Quran Academy
The Six Kalimas are the foundation of a Muslim’s faith. Each Kalima expresses a unique aspect of belief — from declaring the oneness of Allah to seeking forgiveness. At Al Qalam Online Quran Academy, we help children and adults memorize, understand, and apply these Kalimas in daily life through interactive and guided online sessions.
1st Kalima – Tayyab (Purity of Faith)
“Laa ilaaha illallahu Muhammadur Rasoolullah”
Meaning: There is no god but Allah, and Muhammad (PBUH) is the Messenger of Allah.
This Kalima declares the core belief of Islam — pure monotheism.
Learn with us: Tutors ensure perfect pronunciation (tajweed) and explain the deep meaning behind this short but powerful statement.
2nd Kalima – Shahadat (Testimony)
“Ashhadu an laa ilaaha illallah, wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan abduhu wa rasooluhu”
Meaning: I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad (PBUH) is His servant and Messenger.
This Kalima confirms one’s faith through testimony.
In our classes: Students learn how this declaration forms the entry point into Islam and the essence of every Muslim’s identity.
3rd Kalima – Tamjeed (Glorification)
“Subhanallahi walhamdulillahi wala ilaha illallahu wallahu akbar…”
Meaning: Glory be to Allah; all praise be to Allah; there is no god but Allah; and Allah is the Greatest. This Kalima teaches glorification, gratitude, and humility.
At Al Qalam: Tutors help learners memorize it with meaning and understand how each phrase reflects Allah’s perfection.
4th Kalima – Tawheed (Oneness of Allah)
This Kalima reinforces the absolute unity of Allah.
Our guidance: We explain the importance of Tawheed as the foundation of every act of worship.
5th Kalima – Astaghfar (Seeking Forgiveness)
“Astaghfirullaha Rabbi min kulli dhanbin…”
Meaning: I seek forgiveness from Allah, my Lord, for every sin I have committed knowingly or unknowingly.
This Kalima is a reminder of repentance and mercy.
Our tutors help students reflect on personal accountability and the beauty of Allah’s forgiveness.
6th Kalima – Radde Kufr (Rejection of Disbelief)
“Allahumma inni a‘udhu bika min an ushrika bika shay’an wa ana a‘lamu bihi…”
Meaning: O Allah, I seek refuge in You from associating anything with You knowingly or unknowingly.
This Kalima strengthens faith and protects from shirk (polytheism).
Learn online: Students are taught how this supplication safeguards belief through remembrance and sincerity.
