memorial prayer
Explanation:
Buduci da se trazi prevod na engleski jezik, ja bih se odlucila za ovu varijantu. Naime, pretpostavljam da je na smrtovnici navedeno da ce se "tevhid obaviti tu i tu, tada i tada". Ako je tako, onda u ovom slucaju tevhid znaci (pozivam se na Skaljicev rjecnik turcizama u srpskohrvatskom jeziku i na svoje poznavanje islamskih obicaja u nasim krajevima) "muslimanski pomen za mrtve, koji se sastoji u grupnom ucenju poboznih izreka i molitava. Obicno se uci u kuci umrle osobe na dan sahrane, na sedminu, cetrdesetinu, na pola godine i na godinu".

tawheed


Explanation:
Slazem se sa Dejanom, s tim sto bih samo napisala "tawheed" sto vise odgovara originalu. Evo i malog pojasnjenja ako je bitno. Naravno, vazan ti je prevod:
"the term Tawheed is used in reference to Allaah in Holy Koran i.e. Tawheedullaah. It means the realizing and maintaining of Allaah's unity in all of man's actions which directly or indirectly related to Him".

On this special day the Muslims, the Jewish, the Christians and even atheists all danced in semâ (the ritual dance performance of the whirling dervishes) which shows us tevhid (unification) is genuinely realized in Islam.
