لا إله إلا الله محمد رسول الله
lā ʾilāha ʾillà Allah, Muḥammadun rasūlu Allah
"There is no god but Allah [The God], Muhammad is the messenger of Allah."
There is a lengthy description on the meaning of this phrase, and what in entails, but that is not the point of discussion here. InshaAllah, that topic will be covered at a later time.

The shahada is the key to paradise, but every key has ridges. Only the key with the right ridges will open the door for you. This means that the shahada has conditions to it. These conditions are the differentiators between those who will benefit from the statement, and those who will not.
There are 9 conditions of the shahada. We must do our best to learn these conditions and implement them before it is too late.
