The first of them, known as the ''kalimat tayyibah or "word of purity", second is called the shahada (evidence), third "tamjeed" (Glory Of Allah), fourth "tawheed"(Oneness of Allah), fifth "istighfar"(Repentance) and sixth is called "radde kufr"(Refutation of Disbelief). Recitation of the six kalimas is taught in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and other Muslim countries' madrasas,[1] Conversely, religious leaders are expected to be able to recite them, and the Pakistani Ministry of Religious Affairs in one instance earned political criticism for appointing as head of its Council of Islamic Ideology a man who was not able to recite them.[2] Riaz (2008) records memorization of the six kalimas as part of the syllabus of grade 3 (darja saum) education (i.e. taught in the third year of a five-year course) at the Deobandi school Darul Uloom Deoband in Uttar Pradesh, India.[3]
