Learning the Quran is an extremely good demonstration, which each Muslim should perform daily. It gives them insight into all parts of life, likewise, presents them close to the Creator, and will be proof of the prizes of their great deeds on the Day of Judgment.
One vital memorial service ritual in the Islamic confidence is that entombment happens as fast as conceivable in the afterlife. Consequently, there is no survey, wake, or appearance. Following passing, the body is washed and covered with a sheet by relatives. The hands are put as though in supplication. Then, at that point, the body is shipped to the area of the burial service, a mosque.
Building a mosque is a magnificent demonstration of Sadaqah Jariyah! The compensation for building a mosque is ceaseless, and for however long individuals are profiting from the mosque you’ve assisted, you will keep getting prizes from Allah (SWT) even in the Hereafter.

To enter the fold of Islam, all one needs to do is to pronounce the testimony of faith (shahaadah) with sincere conviction, being fully aware of its meaning. The shahaadah is the first and most important of the five pillars of Islam and consists of two parts:
Ashhadu an laailaaha illallaah: This means I bear witness that there is no god worthy of worship except Allah; I worship Him alone without associating any partners with Him in worship.
Wa ash hadu anna Muhammad an rasool-ullaah: This means And I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah whom he has sent to all mankind.
The moment a person embraces Islam is undoubtedly the greatest moment in his/her life. It signifies a rebirth through which he/she has come to better understand the actual reason behind our existence in this life. After pronouncing the testimony of faith, a new Muslim is recommended to take a bath (ghusl), washing his entire body with water.
