Title
A Muslim father whispers the shahada in his new baby`s ear
Caption
It is a custom in Islam for a father to whisper the `shahada` or testament of faith in a new baby`s ear. Thus the phrase `There is no God but Allah, and Muhammad is the Prophet of Allah` will effectively be the first words it hears.
