A common Mormon testimony
 
A common Muslim testimony
 
I bear you my testimony that I know the Book of Mormon is true,
I know that Joseph Smith is a true Prophet of God and
I know that the Church is the only true church
 
 
I bear witness that there is no god but Allah, and
I bear witness that Mohammed is the servant and
Messenger of Allah
