Six Kalimas

The Six Kalmas (Arabic: ٱلكَلِمَات ٱلسِتّ al-kalimāt as-sitt, also spelled qalmah), also known as the Six Traditions or the Six Phrases, are six Islamic phrases (prayers) often recited by South Asian Muslims. The phrases are taken in part from hadiths.

Recitation of the Six Kalimahs is taught in South Asian Muslim schools.[1] The importance of learning the Six Kalimahs is disputed, with some regarding them as essential phrases to be memorised and others arguing that they are not present in the Quran or substantiated by Muhammad.[2]
