CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
A Background
For Muslims,
the word Syahadah is not a foreign word in the human ear. Creed is like a
breath that always accompanies human life. Creed is one of the main
requirements of a person's Islam. Without creed in their hearts, thoughts,
words and actions, there is no Islam in human life. Creed is a vital matter in
the life of Muslims. Shahada is like a spirit, while Islam is like his body.
Then the body will die if the spirit does not exist or dies. The case of
syahadat is a matter which concerns one's unity. That is why this Creed is one
of the primary parts for Muslims. In Islam, the two sentences of the Creed are
an intact series that must be thoroughly believed. Forbidden for Muslims to
only believe in one of them. It is unclean for Muslims to only acknowledge
Allah but do not recognize the Prophet Muhammad, and vice versa. In order for
Muslims to maximize the quality of the Creed in their lives, they must first
know the meaning contained in these two sentences.

CHAPTER II
DISCUSSION
A.
Definition / Terminology Of Syahadah
Syahadah is taken from the verb شَهِدَ يَشْهَدُ
, meaning to observe, witness,
testify, and believe. translates as "testimony" in both the everyday
and the legal senses. The Islamic creed is also called, in the dual form,
Syahadatan ( literally "two testimonials").
Two sentences martyrdom is a
testimony that there is no mandatory that free with love but only God's sake
only. Then Muhammad's testimony that free is the messenger of Allah.
Syahadatain This is the spirit that underlies the beliefs, thoughts and actions
of believers. To realize believer must interact with the content through
several stages syahadatain meaning of love and redha namely God, Islam dam
Apostles. Syahadatain based on love and redha be sibgah to the heart, mind and
body.
B. Word and the Meaning of Syahadah
Creed is the
principle and basis for the other pillars of Islam. Creed is the soul, the core
and foundation of all precepts of Islam. Creed commonly called the Syahadatain
because it consists of two sentences (in Arabic means two sentences Syahadatain
Creed). The two sentences of Creed / Confension is:
1.
Asyhadu an-laa ilaaha illallaah
Meaning: “ I
testify that there is no god without Allah ”
2.
Wa asyhadu anna muhammadan
rasuulullaah
Meaning: “ And
I testify that Muhammad SAW is the messenger of Allah SWT “.
So, we can know that
Asyhadu an-laa ilaaha illallaah Wa asyhadu anna muhammadan rasuulullaah means is: ” I bear witness that there is no God without Allah and
Muhammad SAW is the messenger of Allah “.
C. The Content of Creed Sentences
C. The Content of Creed Sentences
1.
Pledge
Pledge of a Muslim that is a
statement of what was believed. When we uttered those words the testimony, then
we have a duty to uphold and fight for it.
2.
Oath
Creed also means curse. A person
under oath, he or she is willing to accept the consequences and risks in
adopting any such oath. That is, a Muslim means that completion and is
responsible for the enforcement posture of Islam and Islamic teachings.
3.
Promise
Creed also means promise. This means
that every Muslim are those who swear allegiance to hear and obey in all
circumstances on all orders of God, contained in the Qur'an and Sunnah of the
Prophet.
If someone understood correctly
about islam it will bring a positive impact on every god creature, which among
others can be gauged from the attitude that was born from her the love and
sincerity. A Muslim must give a supreme love to God and then to the Prophet and
strive in the path of Allah SWT. bring peace and love to every creatures. This
as evidence of a deep sense of love so willing to do whatever is commanded and
forsake anything that is prohibited.

Rasulullah SAW said in Hadit: “ The lucky human being will get my
blessing in dooms day, it is anyone who said ‘lailahailallah wa’ honestly from
heart and soul”.
E. The Pillar Of Syahadah
E. The Pillar Of Syahadah
The pillar of
syahadah is two statements of Syahadah. Syahadat is the confession
statement, confession of something. It is an obligation Islamic matters of
someone. The first syahadat is Lailaha Illallah it means : there is no god
except Allah. In this statement contains the tauhid’s meaning, it means that
there is no god that must be worshiped except to Allah SWT. Talking about
syahadat it’s not enough, if we just say it, but we have to apply and implement
it in our life and every action.
So, it is
useless although we say it every time,
everywhere, and everyway if we are still doing something that worship to beside
Allah SWT such as honoring the holy trees, giving ritual offering to our god or
to our family who has died and so on. Those things can make our essential of
syahadaH faulty although we don’t commit it, even though the refusal to
syahadah has been described by those action.
The second
syahadah is we confess that Muhammad is Allah’s messenger . The application of
syahadah are :
a)
following
what Rasullaah commanded
b)
approving
what Rasullah said
c)
don’t
worship to Allah SWT except it is proper with what Rasullah explained.
F. The Relevance Of Syahadah For Our Life
F. The Relevance Of Syahadah For Our Life
1. The Entrance into Islam
Received the
faith and action of someone is with statement of syahadah. Without saying
syahadah, so every action that people have done it’s useless, like dust that’s
seen but nothing. It is as distinguishing factor between Islam and infidel.
Allah SWT recites in the holy Quran :
!$uZøBωs%ur 4’n<Î) $tB (#qè=ÏJtã ô`ÏB 9@yJtã çm»oYù=yèyfsù [ä!$t6yd #·‘qèWY¨B ÇËÌÈ
Meaning:
“ And we shall turn to whatever deeds they (disbelievers,
polytheists, sinners, etc.) did, and we shall make such deeds as scattered
floating particles of dust”. (Q.S Al-Furqan : 23)
2.
The
core of Islamic’s doctrine
Comprehension of Moslem to Islam depends on comprehension to
syahadah. When someone tries to comprehend the meaning of syahadah truly and
know the obligation of it, actually they have comprehended the core of
Islamic’s doctrine, because in both of these statments contains 3 the important
things.
The first : statement of Laa Ilaaha Illallah is acceptance of
servitude to Allah SWT. The essence of servitude in someone just to Allah that
has created the human beings. Allah recites :
$tBur
àMø)n=yz
£`Ågø:$#
}§RM}$#ur
žwÎ)
Èbr߉ç7÷èu‹Ï9
ÇÎÏÈ
Meaning:
“ And I (Allâh) created not the jinns and
humans except they should Worship Me (Alone)”. (Q.S Ad-Dzariyat :56)
3. The base of changing
Syahadah can
change the human beings in faith aspect, thinking, and life’s way. Change
includes every aspect of life individually or with citizens. There are the
differences in receiving syahadah in the
fist generation of Muhammad’s community with this generation certainly. Those
differences cause comprehension to the meaning of syahadah with linguistic and
meaning, and consistent to syahadah in applying when receive or ignore.
4. The essence of every messenger’s preaching
Every messenger from
Adam A.S until Muhammad SAW take the same mission of in their preaching, it is
Tauhid. The Rasulullah’s preaching always brings people to worship just to
Allah SWT. ( QS. Al-Kahfi: 110 )
5. Having the big prominance
There are many rewards that will be given
by Allah SWT and promised by our prophet Muhammad SAW. This prominence is
always correlated with application and implication of syahadah in our life. The
biggest prominance is Allah’s heaven. Rasulullah said : “ two things that are
sure”. So a friend asks him, what it is? Rasulullah answer : anyone who has
died in the situation that they don’t worship except to Allah, they will enter
the heaven (narrated by Ahmad).
