Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat

About this book

Al-Aqeedah at-Tahawiyyah by Imam Abu Ja‘far at-Tahawi (d. 321 AH) is one of the most widely accepted statements of the creed of Ahl us Sunnah wal Jama‘ah. Dars e Aqeedah at-Tahawi is a 519-page Urdu explanation of this text, based on the lessons of Hazrat Maulana Shah Mufti Mohammed Nawal ur Rahman Sahab and compiled by Mufti Muhammad Raza ur Rahman Abid Qasmi and Mufti Muhammad Ata ur Rahman Sajid Qasmi.

The book explains, point by point, what a Muslim must believe about Allah: His oneness, His eternal attributes, His power, knowledge, will and provision, and why He is free of every likeness to creation. It explains taqdeer, guidance and misguidance, and answers the questions raised by philosophers and by sects such as the Mu‘tazila, with proofs from the Qur’an, the Sunnah and sound reason.

Written for students of the deen and for educated readers alike, it is an excellent way to make one’s aqeedah firm and clear in an age of doubts.
