سُبْحَانَ ٱللَّٰهِ وَٱلْحَمْدُ لِلَّٰهِ وَلَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّٰهُ وَٱللَّٰهُ أَكْبَرُ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِٱللَّٰهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ ٱلْعَظِيمِ

Glory be to Allah and praise be to Allah and there is no other God except Allah and Allah is the greatest and there is no power and there is no strength except from Allah the most high the magnificent.
Fourth Kalima - Tauheed (Oneness of Allah)
لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّٰهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، لَهُ ٱلْمُلْكُ وَلَهُ ٱلْحَمْدُ، يُحْيِي وَيُمِيتُ وَهُوَ حَيٌّ لَا يَمُوتُ أَبَدًا أَبَدًا، ذُو ٱلْجَلَالِ وَٱلْإِكْرَامِ بِيَدِهِ ٱلْخَيْرُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ
Translation
There is no other God except Allah and he is one without partner. To him belongs all sovereignty and all praise, he gives life and causes death and he is alive never to die, never, ever. Possessor of majesty and reverence. In his hand is all good and he is over everything omnipotent.
Fifth Kalima - Astaghfar (Seeking Forgiveness)
أَسْتَغْفِرُ ٱللَّٰهَ رَبِّي مِنْ كُلِّ ذَنْبٍ أَذْنَبْتُهُ عَمْدًا أَوْ خَطَأً سِرًّا وَعَلَانِيَةً وَأَتُوبُ إِلَيْهِ مِنَ ٱلذَّنْبِ ٱلَّذِي أَعْلَمُ وَمِنَ ٱلذَّنْبِ ٱلَّذِي لَا أَعْلَمُ، إِنَّكَ أَنْتَ عَلَّامُ ٱلْغُيُوبِ وَسَتَّارُ ٱلْعُيُوْبِ وَغَفَّارُ ٱلذُّنُوبِ وَلَا حَوْلَ وَلَا قُوَّةَ إِلَّا بِٱللَّٰهِ ٱلْعَلِيِّ ٱلْعَظِيمِ
Translation
I seek forgiveness from Allah. My lord, from every sin I committed knowingly or unknowingly, secretly or openly. I also seek his forgiveness for all sins which I am aware of and for all sins which I am not aware of. Certainly, you (o Allah!), are the knower of the hidden and the Concealer of mistakes and the forgiver of sins and there is no power and no strength except from Allah, the most high, the most great.
Sixth Kalima - Radde Kuffr (Rejection of Disbelief)
ٱللَّٰهُمَّ إِنِّي أَعُوذُ بِكَ مِنْ أَنْ أُشْرِكَ بِكَ شَيْءً وَأَنَا أَعْلَمُ بِهِ وَأَسْتَغْفِرُكَ لِمَا لَا أَعْلَمُ بِهِ تُبْتُ عَنْهُ وَتَبَرَّأَتُ مِنَ ٱلْكُفْرِ وَٱلشِّرْكِ وَٱلْكِذْبِ وَٱلْغِيبَةِ وَٱلْبِدْعَةِ وَٱلنَّمِيمَةِ وَٱلْفَوَاحِشِ وَٱلْبُهْتَانِ وَٱلْمَعَاصِي كُلِّهَا وَأَسْلَمْتُ وَأَقُولُ لَا إِلَٰهَ إِلَّا ٱللَّٰهُ مُحَمَّدٌ رَسُولُ ٱللَّٰهِ
Translation
O, Allah! Indeed I seek protection in you from associating with you anything whilst I have knowledge of it and I seek your forgiveness for what I do not know about it I repent for it and I distance myself from disbelief and polytheism and lying and backbiting and heresy and talebearing and obscenity and slander and sins in totality and I submit to your will and I declare: there is no other God except Allah and Muhammad (S.A.W) is the messenger of Allah.
