Chhata Kalma Meaning in English and Urdu

English: O Allah, I seek refuge in You from knowingly associating anything with You, and I seek Your forgiveness for what I do not know. I repent from it. I free myself from disbelief, polytheism, lying, backbiting, innovation, tale-carrying, indecency, slander and all sins. I have submitted, and I say: there is no deity worthy of worship except Allah; Muhammad ﷺ is the Messenger of Allah.

Urdu tarjuma:

اے اللہ! میں تیری پناہ مانگتا ہوں اس بات سے کہ میں جان بوجھ کر کسی چیز کو تیرا شریک بناؤں، اور تجھ سے معافی مانگتا ہوں اس (گناہ) کی جسے میں نہیں جانتا۔ میں نے اس سے توبہ کی اور میں بیزار ہوا کفر سے، شرک سے، جھوٹ سے، غیبت سے، بدعت سے، چغلی سے، بے حیائی کے کاموں سے، بہتان سے اور تمام گناہوں سے۔ اور میں اسلام لایا اور کہتا ہوں کہ اللہ کے سوا کوئی معبود نہیں، محمد ﷺ اللہ کے رسول ہیں۔

The 9 Sins Named in Chhata Kalma

In this kalma a Muslim declares himself free from nine things. Knowing what each word means turns the kalma into a checklist for daily life:

The Quran warns about several of these directly, for example shirk in Surah An-Nisa 4:48 and backbiting in Surah Al-Hujurat 49:12.

Is Chhata Kalma Found in the Hadith?

The opening of this kalma is close to a dua the Prophet ﷺ taught Abu Bakr (RA). He told him that shirk can be more hidden than the creeping of an ant, and taught him to say:

Reference: Al-Adab al-Mufrad 716

The rest of the wording is compiled and is not found as one hadith. It is taught in South Asia as a declaration rejecting disbelief and major sins.

Pronunciation Tips

• Ushrika (أُشْرِكَ) means “I associate”; say the “sh” and “r” clearly so the word is not blurred.
• Al-kidhb and al-ghībah use ذ (dhal) and غ (ghain), two letters many learners mix up with z and g.
• An-namīmah has a stretched “ee” sound in the middle: na-mee-mah.
• The list of sins is long, so read it in small groups of two or three words and take a breath between groups.

Why Read Chhata Kalma?

• It asks Allah’s protection from hidden shirk, which the hadith says can creep in unnoticed.
• It seeks forgiveness for sins we did not even realise we committed.
• It renews the declaration of faith at the end with the words of the first kalma.
• It reminds us of everyday sins like lying, backbiting and chughli that are easy to fall into.
