FORWARD:
All praise in reality is only for Allaah. We laud Him and beseech His
aid and beg forgiveness from only Him and believe in Him and rely
solely on Him. We seek salvation in Him from the evils of our inner
selves and the vices of our actions. There is none to misguide one
whom Allaah intends to guide and there is none to guide whom Allaah
intends to mislead. I bear witness that there is no one worthy of
worship only Allaah, the One who has no partner. I also testify that
Hadhrat Muhammad (Sallahu Alahyi Wassalam) is the faithful servant and
the Last Rasul of Allaah. May Allaah Ta'ala's mercy be on him, his
family and his Sahabaah (Radia Allahu Anhum Ajmaeen) and may He bless
them and raise their status.
In this age of trials and tribulations, every so often, one hears and
reads about a new unheard of fabricated belief floating around or
denial of a standard belief of the Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat.
Furthermore, due to our world becoming a global village because of the
latest advanced communications system at large, there erroneous and
fallacious beliefs circulate viciously and rapidly. We have
translated, "Aqaaidul Islaam", of Hadhrat Moulana Idris Khandhelvi (R.A),
who was a senior authority in Darul Uloom Deoband for many years. He
wrote extensively on most aspects of Islaam. Later he migrated to
Lahore.
Thus in this book, the original (Beliefs) of the Ahle Sunnat Wal
Jamaat have been listed and explained. It is essential for every
Muslim to have valid, reliable and authentic beliefs in conformity to
the Ahle Sunnat Wal Jamaat.
We have commenced verbal commentary of this book.
We earnestly request readers to make duaa that Allaah Ta'ala accepts
us for his Deen.
