The Muslim babies and Muslim logic

I'm sure you would agree with me our dear shaan the not very wise that if I wish to convert to the religion of the Arabs (may the Gods forbid) then I must recite al-shahada. Right? as in ashadu ana la ilaha ila allah wa ashhadu anna muhammadan rasul allah. Right? A real mouthfull for sure and I'm sure that even a Muslim like you must be able to rcite it in-order to be a real Muslim. Right? But if one does not recite it then he /she ain't Muslim. Right?

Then you tell us ya ayuha al-falyasoof al-kabeer can a baby that was just born recite al-shahada? Let me help you: No. can a year old or a two year old or even a tree year old recite it? Let me help you: No

Therefore I must conclude that babies and toddlers cannot be Muslims not even those that were born to Muslim parents.

So much for poor Muslim education and logic

I uge you to abandon the religion of the Arabs and be whole again
