The Creed and Way of Muslim Orthodoxy

The core of Islam is theology. Most of the Qur'an and Sunnah deal with theology and creedal points. It is therefore fitting that for the first time - and long overdue - a catalogue of Muslim creeds has been translated and annotated with Arabic text into the English language. These three creeds - never before brought into contemporary English - will give any reader, Muslim or not, a concise but profound elucidation of the beliefs of the Vast Majority of Muslims in every era according to the agreed upon creedal formulations of Imams Ahmad ibn Hanbal, Abu Mansur Al-Maturidi and Abul Hasan Al-Ash ari.
