The Creed of Imam Al-Tahawi - Hamza Yusuf

This professionally (studio) recorded CD contains the Creed of Imam al-Tahawi in Arabic and English. Shaykh Hamza Yusuf read the 130 lines of Imam al-Tahawi's Aqidah in English and Qari Amar Bellaha read it in Arabic. It's a great tool for memorizing and to listen to what Muslim believe in an audio CD. In an age of bewildering spiritual and intellectual confusion, creed has never been more important. 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, and the least controversial. 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 involuted theological issues and systematically presented the most fundamental aspects of dogmatic theology, his creed has achieved an unusual degree of acceptance in the Muslim milieu. In the thousand years since it was written, many great Muslim scholars have penned commentaries on it. It is still studied throughout the Muslim world and increasingly in the West. Recited by: Shaykh Hamza Yusuf & Qari Amar Bellaha
