The reason for the composition of this creed was that a sheikh named Radi al-Din al-Wasiti, a follower of the Shafi'i school, came to Ibn Taymiyyah from Wasit. They were both pilgrims, and the sheikh complained about the state of the people in that region and under the rule of the Mongols, where ignorance and injustice prevailed. So Ibn Taymiyyah wrote this creed for him, saying about it, "In this creed, I have striven to follow the Book and the Sunnah." He also said, "Every word I have mentioned is based on a verse, a hadith, or a consensus of the early generations."
Author: Ahmad ibn Abd al-Halim ibn Abd al-Salam ibn Abd Allah ibn Abi al-Qasim al-Khidr al-Numayri al-Harrani al-Dimashqi al-Hanbali, Abu al-Abbas, Taqi al-Din Ibn Taymiyyah (661-728 AH / 1263-1328 CE). He was an imam, a leading scholar of Islam. He was born in Harran, and his father moved with him to Damascus, where he excelled and became famous. He was summoned to Egypt because of a fatwa he had issued, so he went there. A group of people there opposed him, and he was imprisoned for a time before being transferred to Alexandria. He was then released and traveled to Damascus in 712 AH, where he was arrested in 720 AH. He was released again, then re-arrested, and died imprisoned in the Damascus Citadel. All of Damascus turned out for his funeral. He was a prolific scholar of various branches of wisdom and a reformer of the faith. He was a master of Quranic exegesis and jurisprudence, eloquent, and his writing and speech were in perfect harmony. In al-Durar al-Kaminah, it is mentioned that he debated with scholars, presented arguments, and excelled in knowledge and exegesis. He issued legal opinions and taught while still under twenty. His writings, according to al-Durar, may exceed four thousand notebooks, while Fawwat al-Wafayat states they number three hundred volumes. Among them are: *al-Siyasah al-Shar'iyyah* (Islamic Governance), *al-Fatawa* (Legal Opinions), *al-Iman* (Faith), *Minhaj al-Sunnah* (The Path of the Sunnah), *al-Wasitah bayna al-Haqq wa al-Khalq* (The Mediator between Truth and Creation), *al-Qawa'id al-Nuraniyyah al-Fiqhiyyah* (The Luminous Principles of Jurisprudence), *al-Sarim al-Maslul 'ala Shatim al-Rasul* (The Drawn Sword Against the One Who Insults the Messenger), and others.
❇️ Some Reviews of Ibn Taymiyyah's Al-Aqidah Al-Wasitiyyah ❇️
▪️Source of reviews: www.goodreads.com/book/show/7161125▪️
- The creed of Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah in a few pages. May God have mercy on Ibn Taymiyyah. He wrote it after Asr prayer, but the sun of his day set, yet the sun of his book, which compiled the creed of the people of the first three centuries in a style free from complexity and philosophy, relying instead on verses and hadiths, has not.
Aboesam
- The book serves as a user guide (catalog) for defining the characteristics and beliefs of those whom Ibn Taymiyyah calls Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah. As a subtitle, Ibn Taymiyyah states, "The belief of the saved and victorious sect until the Day of Judgment: Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah." This book acts as a criterion for evaluating different groups to determine if they belong to the saved sect, Ahlus Sunnah wal Jama'ah, according to the belief of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah.
Mahmood Shamsan
- A simple book, few pages, but of great benefit.
