2. Documents to submit for Conversion to Islam
Before the Kalema ceremony (conversion process), you need to take proof of your name, age and nationality. For example your:
- valid passport
- national identity card from the European Economic Area (EEA) or Switzerland
- biometric residence card or permit
- valid travel document with photograph
- valid UK or (EEA) driving licence
You might need other documents if you don't have a valid passport. A valid photo ID is a must.
At the Conversion Ceremony
Both original and photocopies of the required documents must be submitted to the ShiaJamaat representative for verification prior to the Kalema ceremony. Please note that the ceremony will be cancelled if the applicant fails to present a valid photo ID on the day of the ceremony.
