First, one must be convinced that Islam is the truth. Otherwise, it is no use 'becoming' Muslim.

One takes a bath (or shower). Then one sits with a number of Muslim witnesses to declare the testimony of faith. this is done both in one's native language, as well as Arabic. At least, that is the common practice - eventhough as far as God (Allah) is concerned, one's own language is enough.

The testimony is this: "I testify (or, "I bear witness") that there is no one worthy of worship but the One God (Allah), and I testify (or "I bear witness") that Muhammad is the Messenger of God (Allah).

Sometimes the person who is administering the testimony of faith (called "the Shahaadah") wil say: "Muhammad is the Final Messenger of Allah" or "the Servant and Messenger of Allah".

If it is repeated in Arabic, then the transliteration of that Shahaadah is: "Ashadu Al-laa ilaaha il-Allah, WA ashdadu an-na Muhammadan Rasool Allah".

That's it. The person's past sins are forgiven and the new Muslim brother or sister is welcomed by the community.
