As the practical concepts like piousness, good deed, favour-evil, pray, hajj, alms, punishement-payoff, etc.; and the belief concepts like angel, jinn, prophet, the holy book (Qur’ân), heaven, hell, etc., particularly the belief of Tawhid that underlie the Qur’ân, have much more important in tems of both islamic culture and islamic sciences; the concept of “shahadah” has also aqually important. This concept that means, in fact, “to be present at anywhere and to get information about one thing”, refers sometimes to not to stand by polytheists or in any places where polytheism comes up in the Qur’ân, that is, to stand against supersititious, and sometimes to stand next to the right and tell the truth. Generally, when the concept of shahadah is mentioned in any context, the things being far away from a pack of lie and fiction comes to our mind (al-Baqarah, 2/282; al-An’âm, 6/19, an-Nûr, 24/13). However, there are some exceptions, for instance; as the hypocrites openly said “we testify that you are prophet of Allah”, but in fact they were keeping what they think secret. Thus, we can say that the concept of shahadah doesn’t always mean to real face of something
