اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ أَنْ أُشْرِكَ بِكَ شَيْئًا وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ بِهِ وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا لَا أَعْلَمُ بِهِ تُبْتُ عَنْهُ وَتَبَرَّأْتُ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ وَالشِّرْكِ وَالْكِذْبِ وَالْغِيبَةِ وَالْبِدْعَةِ وَالنَّمِيمَةِ وَالْفَوَاحِشِ وَالْبُهْتَانِ وَالْمَعَاصِي كُلِّهَا وَأَسْلَمْتُ وَأَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ
Allahumma inni a'udhu bika min an ushrika bika shay'an wa ana a'lamu bih, wa astaghfiruka lima la a'lamu bih. Tubtu anhu wa tabarra'tu minal-kufri wash-shirki wal-kidhbi wal-ghibati wal-bid'ati wan-namimati wal-fawahishi wal-buhtani wal-ma'asi kulliha. Wa aslamtu wa aqulu: La ilaha illallah, Muhammadur Rasulullah.

Sixth Kalima in Arabic
اللَّهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ أَنْ أُشْرِكَ بِكَ شَيْئًا وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ بِهِ وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا لَا أَعْلَمُ بِهِ تُبْتُ عَنْهُ وَتَبَرَّأْتُ مِنَ الْكُفْرِ وَالشِّرْكِ وَالْكِذْبِ وَالْغِيبَةِ وَالْبِدْعَةِ وَالنَّمِيمَةِ وَالْفَوَاحِشِ وَالْبُهْتَانِ وَالْمَعَاصِي كُلِّهَا وَأَسْلَمْتُ وَأَقُولُ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ
Its four movements
- Refuge — from knowingly associating partners with Allah (a hadith wording, Musnad Ahmad).
- Repentance — for unknowing violations too.
- Renunciation — kufr, shirk, lying, backbiting, innovation, tale-carrying, indecency, slander, all disobedience.
- Renewal — “I submit, and I declare” the testimony.
Start the set again from the first kalima and teach all six to your family.
❓ Frequently asked questions
What is the sixth kalima?
Radd-e-Kufr (rejecting disbelief): refuge from shirk, repentance, disowning kufr, shirk, lying, backbiting, innovation, tale-carrying, indecencies, slander and all sins — then renewing the testimony.
When should I recite it?
After sins, doubts, or negligence — and regularly, as renewal. Its opening matches a hadith wording (Musnad Ahmad) on hidden shirk.
Does it replace the testimony of faith?
No — it ends with the testimony itself. Radd-e-Kufr cleans the slate; the kalima Tayyibah seals it.
