THE JEWEL OF THE THEOLOGIANS IN LIGHT OF THE ISLAMIC CREED

From the book: This book comprises questions and answers related to our beliefs in relation to Allah and His attributes, His books, His angels, His messengers, the day of resurrection, heaven and hell and many other relevant topics.

This book is basic, easy to understand and ideal to learn basic beliefs from and to use to teach children without going into the intricacies of theology.

I was forwarded this relatively short work originally compiled in Arabic by the late Syrian Shaykh, Tahir al Jazairi (d. 1920), entitled Al-Jawahir al Kalamiyyah fi Idah al-Aqidah al-Islamiyya, with its subsequent English translation entitled The Jewel of The Theologians in Light of The Islamic Creed.

The author of this work needs no introduction to the avid readers of Islamic literature across the Arab world due to his arduous activities in the proselytization of Islam as well as being a noted author.

The actual work was collated by the late author based on his answers on a selection of some 102 theological questions. The topics chosen were all related thematically to a unique aspect of Sunni Islamic creed and how they may inspire the Muslim reader to envisage the aspiration of contemplating on the beliefs related via divine origin.

The author has not only referred back to the noble verses of the Holy Qur‟an, but has also given copious quotes and references back to the sayings of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam) in the footnotes.

The work has been translated by Shaykh Hafizurrahman Fateh mahomed of Netherlands and through the beneficence of Allah it is anticipated that the Muslim may grow more poised in developing a greater bond with the Creator, as well as developing an abundant sense of God-fearingness (taqwa), and closeness to the Creator by means of adopting the creedal points demonstrated within the text which conform with the doctrine of Ahlus Sunna wa al Jama‟a.
