Commentary on The Creed of At-Tahawi

Islamic creed has never been more important then in current times due to widespread ignorance amonst Muslims and lack of basic knowledge. Every Muslim is obliged to learn it and is promised protection from deviant beliefs by following the unassailable texts of the scholastic community of Islam. Of them all, The Creed of Imam al-Tahawi is the simplest, the most effective. It serves as a sound basis for Islamic faith and is the most reliable of the early articulations of Muslim belief. Because Imam al-Tahawi avoided innovated theological issues and systematically presented the most fundamental aspects of dogmatic theology, his creed has achieved an unusual degree of acceptance in the Muslim world. In the thousand years since it was written, many great Muslim scholars have penned commentaries on it. The one being discussed here by Ibn Abi Al-‘Izz (732 A.H.) was published in 1349 A.H. in Mecca.
