testimony of faith

Belief's spoken affirmation

A testimony of faith is a personal declaration of religious belief, often shared publicly within a faith community.

In Christian contexts, it typically recounts one's conversion experience or spiritual journey: She gave her testimony of faith at the revival meeting.

In Islam, the testimony of faith (shahada) is the formal declaration that there is no god but God and Muhammad is his messenger—the first of the Five Pillars.
