Islamic Studies The Five Pillars of Islam – First Pillar: Shahadah (Kalimah Tayyibah)
Which condition of Shahadah ensures that the heart and tongue are aligned without any hypocrisy?
Explanation
Truthfulness means the heart and tongue are aligned — a person genuinely believes what they say. The opposite (saying it without believing) is hypocrisy (Nifaq), which nullifies the Shahadah.

Hint
This condition is violated by hypocrites (Munafiqeen) who say it with their tongues but not hearts.
