Sh. Abdullah Oduro reflects on his own journey to Islam, and the factors that helped him embrace Islam. By focusing on foundational elements, we can seek the religion of Allah (swt) which starts and ends with the Shahada- a statement of the oneness of Allah (swt). Searching for a relationship with our Creator is why we say these words.
