Description :
A simple but comprehensive book covering every aspect of fundamental Islamic belief (
aqida). Whilst the print may be old the language is very easy to follow and understand, hence the reason why it is still widely used across
madrassahs and Islamic schools in the west. Includes exercises at the end of each chapter to aid students revision.
Review : The book, “
Islamic Beliefs” ---Over a dozen of the books compiled by the respected ‘
Allama, on a variety of important topics (such as Arabic Grammar,
Fiqh, Hadith and
Seerah) are receiving appreciation and acclamation. Praise be to Allah, the respected ‘
Allama
has presented to the academic world the present counselling and thought
provoking work. May Allah accept this endeavour of the ‘
Allama.
This
book is a collection of the important and fundamental beliefs of Islam.
It is a unique gift for the sound natured man. A glance over its
contents reveals that along with being beautifully composed, it is full
of many thought provoking subjects and intellectual and narrative
proofs. Due to its logical and intellectual proofs, this book
will on one hand play a very effective role in erasing the doubts in
the minds of wavering Muslims and will make them into right believing
Sunnis. Whilst on the other hand, it will be very efficient to remove the ‘scientifically’ based arguments of the non-Muslims.
May
Allah bless the author and reward him for compiling such a valuable and
informative book and make this book useful for all Muslims, especially
the Muslim students.
