There is a brother who embraced Islam approximately two years ago, but
he cannot remember whether he uttered the shahaadatayn (twin
declaration of faith). He prays and fasts and strives to follow the
religion as much as he can .
Praise be to Allaah.
Firstly:
We praise Allaah for having guided our brother to Islam, and we ask
Him, may He be glorified and exalted, to make him steadfast,
strengthen his faith and increase his worship.
Secondly:
If this brother is doubting that he uttered the shahaadatayn after two
years of fasting, praying and striving to follow the religion as much
as he can, this is undoubtedly waswaas (whispers) from the shaytaan
who wants to upset him and make him feel anxious and worried. What is
definite is that this brother has repeated the shahaadatayn during
this lengthy period time after time. Has he not been repeating the
adhaan after the muezzin all this time? Has he not said sometimesLaa
ilaaha ill-Allaah Muhammad Rasool Allaah? Does he not pray? For in the
tashahhud during the prayer he says: I bear witness that there is no
god but Allaah and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of
Allaah.
Moreover the fact that he prays is regarded as entering into Islam.
Hence the scholars said of the kaafir: If he prays then he is a Muslim
according to the rules, i.e., he is judged to be a Muslim even if he
does not utter the shahaadatayn.
See:al-Sharh al-Mumti'(2/12) andal-Mawsoo'ah al-Fiqhiyyah(4/272).
This is also indicated by the report narrated by al-Bukhaari (391)
from Anas ibn Maalik (may Allaah be pleased with him) who said: The
Messenger of Allaah(peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said:
"Whoever prays as we pray and faces the same qiblah (direction of
prayer) that we face and eats meat slaughtered by us, he is the
Muslim."
We should beware of waswaas which befalls some people and makes them
confused as to whether they said or did something or not, because
waswaas is a sickness, and the remedy for it is dhikr (remembering
Allaah) and not paying any attention to it.
And Allaah knows best.

*- WHAT ISLAM SAYS -*
-
Islam is a religion of Mercy, Peace and Blessing. Its teachings emphasize kind hear tedness, help, sympathy, forgiveness, sacrifice, love and care.Qur’an, the Shari’ah and the life of our beloved Prophet (SAW) mirrors this attribute, and it should be reflected in the conduct of a Momin.Islam appreciates those who are kind to their fellow being,and dislikes them who are hard hearted, curt, and hypocrite.Recall that historical moment, when Prophet (SAW) entered Makkah as a conqueror. There was before him a multitude of surrendered enemies, former oppressors and persecutors, who had evicted the Muslims from their homes, deprived them of their belongings, humiliated and intimidated Prophet (SAW) hatched schemes for his murder and tortured and killed his companions. But Prophet (SAW) displayed his usual magnanimity, generosity, and kind heartedness by forgiving all of them and declaring general amnesty...Subhanallah. May Allah help us tailor our life according to the teachings of Islam. (Aameen)./-
