“We intend that ARAYA’s activities will aim to assist humanity in living together peacefully and harmoniously, even with religious differences, while supporting those interested in Islam to experience and learn about it without facing coercion or distress.”

Yaoharee Lahtee , Founder

The process of converting to Islam and becoming a new Muslim is not difficult at all. It is considered simple because, if summarized briefly, there are only two steps. The first step is to calm your mind and be aware of what you are about to say. The second step is to recite a specific statement called the “Declaration of Faith.” That’s it, you’re done. This is the simple process of converting to Islam and becoming a new Muslim.

The declaration that must be recited is:

 “Ashhadu alla ilaha illallah, wa ashhadu anna Muhammadan rasulullah,”

which means:

“I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His messenger.”

Once you have recited this declaration, you have become a new Muslim.

Do You Need Witnesses or Documents to Convert to Islam?

Is it necessary to have witnesses or documents to convert to Islam?
While it is not required to have witnesses in practice, since this is a matter between you and Allah, witnesses become necessary when you need documentation. If you require such documents, there will be additional paperwork involved.

Another aspect of having witnesses is that it can make certain religious activities that require your Muslim status, such as marriage or Nikah, easier. If you have a witness who is a respected figure known to the Muslim family, it can facilitate a smoother wedding process. The person conducting the Nikah will know that you have already converted to Islam through a familiar figure, ensuring that the ceremony is in accordance with religious principles. This brings peace of mind to all parties involved.Nikah in Thailand with ARAYA NIKAH

Where can you convert to Islam with a certificate in Thailand?

You can convert to Islam anywhere – at home, at a mosque, or any other location. Nowadays, ARAYA NIKAH company has developed an online self-conversion process that can be accessed 24/7 via mobile phone and TikTok application.

However, arranging witnesses and practical learning differs. Some witnesses prefer to ensure that you are converting with true intention, so they may ask questions about your Islamic studies or the religious teachers you consulted before accepting to be a witness.

Currently, ARAYA has developed a combined Islamic studies and conversion program, designed for multicultural families. This ensures that couples who go through this program will understand both the practices and beliefs of Islam and be able to live harmoniously in a Muslim family and society. Additionally, they will be able to care for their non-Muslim families warmly. You can learn more about the Islamic studies course here.

This course comes with Islamic studies, the conversion process with a certificate issued by the company, and the arrangement of an officiant for couples planning an Islamic wedding with ARAYA.

Converting to Islam and learning about Islam are different concepts. Although the conversion process is concise and simple, learning about Islam is a lifelong journey. Best wishes to all future new Muslims.
