Maulana Abul Kalam Azad (d. 1958): He was a Muslim theologian, scholar and author of 20th century in India, who also held high political and ministerial posts in the republic of India. In his well-known Urdu commentary of the Quran, he writes: Here we draw attention to just one thing. What Islam has made as the basic expression of its teaching is known to everyone --- Ashhadu an la ilaha ill Allah, wa Ashhadu anna Muhammad-an abdu-hu wa rasulu-hu. That is, I confess that there is none to be worshipped besides God and I confess that Muhammad is the servant of God and His messenger. (Tarjuman al-Quran, Delhi, 1931, vol. i, p. 119)
