The Second Kalma, also known as the Shahada-e-Tawheed, is a declaration of faith in Islam affirming the belief in the oneness of Allah. It goes as follows:

"أَشْهَدُ أَنْ لاَ إِلَهَ إِلاَّ اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لاَ شَرِيكَ لَهُ وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ"

Transliteration:
"Ash-hadu an la ilaha illa Allah, wahdahu la sharika lah, wa ash-hadu anna Muhammadan 'abduhu wa rasuluh."

Translation:
"I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, alone without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger."

Reciting the Second Kalma is a fundamental part of the declaration of faith in Islam, known as the Shahada, which is required for someone to convert to Islam. It encapsulates the core belief in the absolute oneness of Allah and the prophethood of Muhammad.
