| what is the islamic creed: The Fundamentals of Islamic Creed Abu Ja`far Ahmad Salamah Al-A Al-Tahawi, 2020-09-04 The Book in hand is a summary of the Faiths and beliefs of the mainstream Muslims Spread all over the globe. Muslim Scholars are unanimous in opinion that the articles of faith as formulated by Imam Tahawi in the treatise reproduced here, most accurately reflect the mind and understanding of the earliest Muslims. It is free from incorrect interpretations, over-exemplification and any distortion of the ideas promulgated by Islam. There is also a general agreement that the comentary on Tahawi's work as done by Abi Al-Izz is an accurate elucidation of what Tahawi meant to express. Also, it strives to be very close to the texts of the Qur'an and the prophetic saying, and, without over-stretching the meaning, attemps to project the opinion of the great majority of scholars in maters pertaining to Islamic creed. It would be interesting for the followers of other faith to compare their faith and beliefs with those of Islam as illustrated in this standarad Textual work that dates back to the late third Islamic century. Further, since the Muslim creed, truly dating back to the Prophetic times has never undergone revision, this book should help the non-Muslims to get an insight into the Muslim mind. |
| what is the islamic creed: A JUZ A DAY Yahya Ibrahim, The Qur’an refers to a wealth of human experience, seeking to enrich our lives on earth before our eventual return to our Maker, the Most High. Although it is impossible to articulate a translation that clearly establishes the majestic nature of the Qur’an in any language of the world, nevertheless, Muslims need to become more familiar with the overall coherence of its message in their native language. The aim of this work before you is to highlight key themes and messages of the Qur’an that will be recited throughout our lives so those who are not able to understand the Arabic reading can feel a connection with what they will hear and recite by reading this summation. |
| what is the islamic creed: A Brief History of Islam in Europe Maurits Berger, 2014 This book presents an overall presentation and discussion of developments ever since Islam appeared on the European stage thirteen centuries ago. The events and stories presented increase the understanding of present debates on, and notions of, Islam and Muslims in Europe. This book shows that in the course of thirteen centuries the Muslim as well as Islam have undergone many metamorphoses. The Muslim has entered the European stage as a conqueror, antichrist, scholar, benign ruler, corsair, tradesman and fellow citizen. The image of Islam has meandered accordingly, as a religion that was feared as an enemy or embraced as a partner against heretical Christians, despised as an abomination or admired as a civilization, and studied for missionary, academic, colonial or security purpose. |
| what is the islamic creed: Doctrinal Instruction in Early Islam Maher Jarrar, Sebastian Günther, 2020-05-06 This pioneering study casts important new light on key issues in the development of dogmatic instruction in early Islam, as it examines the creed written by the Basran and Baghdadi Sunni preacher Ghulām Khalīl (d. 275/888). It includes a critical edition of the Arabic text and an English translation of what appears to be one of the earliest statements of religious beliefs in Islam. In particular, this book argues convincingly that this influential text was authored by the ninth century Ghulām Khalīl rather than the Hanbali preacher of Baghdad, al-Barbahārī - a claim repeatedly made by modern scholars, both Western and Eastern. The present publication broaches multi-layered themes with the aim of specifying the parameters of this “Muslim Creed” in terms of the composite relationship between its content and its origin. In addition, it tackles the important question of what may have led modern Salafis to embrace the doctrinal positions of this particular statement of belief and practice and, perhaps more importantly, to pursue its “institutionalization” as a religious orthodoxy. |

| what is the islamic creed: Key to the Garden Habib Ahmad Mashhur al-Haddad, It is now forty years since this book was written, twenty since it was translated into English, and twelve since the translation was first published. The issues that had caused the author so much concern at the time have become, without exception, all the more pressing today. The need to convey the Islamic concept of Tawhid to the world at large in clear unequivocal terms has been and shall remain a Muslim's first duty. Now that there is renewed worldwide attention towards Islam, it has become even more urgent to convey its core concept, without which there is no religion: The Oneness of God. Key to the Garden is an elaborate exposition of Prophet Muhammad (s) teaching that the inner life must pass through three stages: affirmation of faith with the tongue, then the mind, and finally the heart. The Muslim Testimony of Faith, that there is no deity save God, is at once the essence and the highest principle of Islam. This book is a demonstration, by one of the greatest recipients of the Prophet's heritage of knowledge, of how the whole spectrum of Islamic thought and worship unfolds naturally from these few words. |

| what is the islamic creed: Diseases of the Hearts & Their Cures Ibn Taymiyyah, 2018-09-28 Actions are distinguished, one from the other, with respect to their excellence in the Sight of Allah in accordance with the condition of the heart, not by their number or form, but rather due to the strength of the caller, his truthfulness, his sincerity and the extent to which he prefer Allah over himself. The heart has been singled out for this because it is the leader of the body, and through the purification of the leader the subjects become purified, and with his corruption they become corrupted. So if you, Observant of Allah, wish to cure your hear then it is upon you to be truthful with regards to seeking refuge with Allah and putting your trust in Him, to pray a great deal of supererogatory prayers, to perform the actions of obedience to Allah frequently, to pray the night prayer while the people are sleeping, and to treat your heart by making it continuously stick to the remembrances and by befriending only the righteous and to frequently recite the Quran. And Allah will indeed allow all of this to be preserved by him. |

| what is the islamic creed: Islamic Creeds , 1994 There are no official creeds in Islam comparable to the Apostles' creed and the Nicene creed in Christianity. In mainstream Sunnite Islam, however, there is broad agreement about the chief doctrines, and over the centuries these have been expressed in creeds by individuals and groups, some of which have been widely recognised and used for instruction. These creeds are basic material for the study of Islamic religion, and a selection is given here in translation, together with a historical introduction, explanatory notes, and a single Shi'ite creed to show the contrast. |
| what is the islamic creed: Stations of the Travelers Hatem Al-Haj, 2020-06-21 This book, Manâzil as-Sâ'ireen, is a masterpiece of taṣawwuf written by Imam Abu Ismâ'eel 'Abdullâh ibn Muhammad ibn 'Ali al-Anṣâri al-Harawi, one of the greatest Sufi masters of all times. The sheikh was Hanbali in his fiqh and Athari (scripturalist) in his creed. This makes it easier to decipher the symbolism of his statements: a result of the book's brevity and the sheikh's inclination toward linguistic finesse. I provide detailed footnotes for clarification. While I consulted many commentaries on Manâzil, including the rather brief commentaries by Imams al-Lakhmi and al-Munâwi, I owe most of my understanding of it to the instruction of my teachers and to Madârij as-Sâlikeen, another masterpiece written by Imam Ibn al-Qayyim, the erudite scholar who embodied the loving yet critical approach to the great legacy of Islamic spirituality.

| what is the islamic creed: The Fundamental of Islamic Creed Abu Jafar Ahmed Al-Azadi, 1999-03-05 The Fundamental of Islamic Creed: All praise be to Allah the Lord of the worlds, and peace and blessings be on the most honored of Messengers and the best of creations, Muhammad, a slave of Allah and His Messenger: the trustworthy guide. Peace and blessings also be upon his kinsfolk, Companions and all those who followed him in right stead - until the day of Judgement. We feel extreme pleasure at presenting a fresh translation of the fundamentals of Islamic faith as formulated by Imam Tahawi and explained by Ibn Abi Al-'Izz. It might be appropriate too, at this point, to reproduce the following lines that appeared in the preface of the original text and abridged commentary published by the Ministry of Justice and Islamic and Endowment Affairs of the United Arab Emirates. The starting point of the journey taken up by the present-day Islamic refor- mation activities has to be firmly rooted in right faiths and beliefs especially with regard to the concept of Oneness of Allah, so as to be free of all adulteration. The Islamic awakening of our times has to have this 'truth of all truths' firmly estab- lished so that, on the one hand the new generation follows the right sign posts on its march forward, then, on the other, the older generation may be warned of the infiltration of superstitions, fetishes and adulteration into the value system of Islam. Hence the choice of the work at hand. The scholars and the jurists are unanimous that the articles of faith as formu- lated by Imam Tahawi, may Allah show him mercy, most accurately reflect the mind and understanding of the earliest Muslims. It is free of incorrect interpreta- tions, over-exemplification and any distortion of the ideas put forward by Islam. There is also a general agreement that the commentary on the original work as done by Qadi Ibn Abi al-'Izz al-Adhru'i is also an accurate elucidation of what Tahawi meant to express. It strives to be very close to the texts of the Qur'an and the Sunnah, and, without over-stretching the meaning, attempts to project the opinion of the great majority of scholars where differences in opinion prevail. This commentary was first published about 75 years ago in Makkah al-Mukar- ramah in 1394 A.H. under the supervision of a team of scholars headed by Sheikh Abdullah b. Hasan b.

| what is the islamic creed: Introduction to Islamic Creed (Bajuri's Epistle) (HB) Imam Ibrahim Al-Bajuri, 2025-03-21 This book is the first step to properly and formally studying the Islamic belief (aqidah). It is intended for both youth and adult. As a response to a request, Imam al-Bajuri outlines the core beliefs of the orthodox Sunni doctrine (aqidah) that must be known by every Muslim.

It is hoped that by including the facing, vocalized Arabic script that 1) students of Sacred Knowledge will be aided in learning the language of the Qur'an, the Prophet (saws), and the ulama, 2) it will serve as a teaching aid for the ulama when teaching this text to reference the original work and 3) to preserve the actual words of Imam al-Bajuri.
