You can supplicate (perform du3a') in any language. Between you and God, you can communicate to Him in any language. It's what's in the heart that matters.
However, when you say the Shahada, it should be in Arabic, just like when you pray, you repeat verses from the Qur'an, in the divine language in which it was revealed in.
(12:2)
We have sent it down as an Arabic Qur'an, in order that ye may learn wisdom.
إِنَّا أَنزَلْنَاهُ قُرْآنًا عَرَبِيًّا لَّعَلَّكُمْ تَعْقِلُونَ

i believe it can be said in any other language. but to be more accurate we use the language that God has spoken with in the Quran.
and God here is explaining your question:
[44] And if We had sent this as a Qur'ân in a foreign language (other than Arabic), they would have said: "Why are not its Verses explained in detail (in our language)? What! (A Book) not in Arabic and (the Messenger) an Arab?" Say: "It is for those who believe, a guide and a healing. And as for those who disbelieve, there is heaviness (deafness) in their ears, and it (the Qur'ân) is blindness for them. They are those who are called from a place far away (so they neither listen nor understand)."
Quran 41:44

Why can't Muslims face up to the fact that Jesus is Son of God?
Jesus is Son of God, that so all His teaching are about love, forgiveness and peace.
How come Muslims cannot face up to the fact that mohamad are not prophet of Allah ??,
Because Allah, will not allow man to have 2/3/4 wife by any excuse. So all the pervert, sex maniac, child molester cannot be good man.
Because Allah, will not allow their beleiver to kill, torture, harash, hate other beleiver. Allah never teach full of hate with each other human being that He created. Also Christians, Chatolics, Jews have the same God, Allah of Abraham, I dont know about Islam because if your prophet from the same God your prophet will not teach you to hate the same beleiver.
Infront of Allah, all human are the same right. But Mohammad that claim him self as prophet teach many discrimination against women ????
Allah never teach with violent, full of hate, full of pleasure, so do you think Mohamad is the real prophet from Allah ???
Wake Uppp !!!

Of course for the reasons that you mentioned. Otherwise those without the ability to vocalize would be excluded from those that submit.
