What should I do first after becoming Muslim?

The most important first steps are:

  1. Believe in Allah alone without partners, and in Prophet Muhammad ﷺ as His Messenger.

  2. Learn how to pray (salah) since prayer is the foundation of Islam and connects you to Allah daily.

  3. Learn how to perform wudu (ablution), as it’s required for prayer.

  4. Develop good character: kindness, honesty, patience, and avoiding harm to others.

Allah says:

“Allah does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear.” (Qur’an 2:286)

This means you don’t have to do everything perfectly right away. Islam is a journey, and your effort is seen by Allah.
