In making salah,do you combine Fardh and Sunnah rakahs??
Or you do one(fardh)or the other(sunnah)?
Also, to become a Muslim,is it necessary to declare that you are a Muslim in the company of two other Muslims?
thank you

Answer

Praise be to Allah.

al-hamdu lillaah.

 1. Fardh and sunnah prayers have to be performed separately.

 2. You don't need witnesses to become a Muslim. Once you utter the Shahadatain believing in them, you are then a Muslim.

Please see the section on "Accepting Islam & Related Issues ".
