Prologue

All Praise be to Allah, the Cretor of the worlds. The learned authority on Islam, Abu

Ja'far AI- Warraq AI-Tahawi of Egypt (May Allah have mercy upon him) said:

This is an exposition of the beliefs Of Ahl us Sunnah wal Jama'h in accordance with the

way of the jurists Of Islam: Abu Hanifa al-Nu'man bin thabit Al-kufi, Abu Yusuf Ya'qub bin

Ibrahim AI-Ansari, Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin AI-Hasan Al-Shaibani (May Allah be pleased

with them all) and this is what they believe about the fundamentals of the religion and the

belief they profess about the Creator of the worlds.

By the grace of Allah, this what we say about the Tawheed[1] (unity) of Allah:

On Tawheed (Oneness of Allah)

1- Allah is one and has no partners at all.

2- Nothing in the whole universe is similar to Him.

3- Nothing can surpass or outreach Him.

4- No one is worthy to be worshipped except Him.

5- He is Qadeem[2] with no beginning and Eternal with no end.

6.- He will never die nor perish.

7.- Nothing happens in this universe except with His will.

8.- No conjecture or thinking can perceive His real essence.

9.-He does not resemble any of His creatures.

10.- He is alive; death will not overtake Him. He is the protector; in no need of sleep at

all.

11.- He is the Creator of the whole universe but He is in no need of it. He feeds all

without difficulty.

12.- He makes all taste death with no fear. He will resurrect them all without any

difficulty.
