A Practical Manual on the Creed of Tawḥīd from the Quran and the Sunna

A Practical Manual on the Creed of Tawḥīd from the Quran and the Sunna is the definitive English translation of Samira al-Zayid’s landmark Arabic textbook, Al-Mufīd fī Bayān ʿAqīdat al-Tawḥīd. Expertly translated by Dr. Tamara Gray, this work presents a comprehensive, clear, and deeply accessible exploration of Islamic creed (ʿaqīda). Structured around the Hadith of Jibrīl, it systematically covers the pillars of faith: belief in Allah, His angels, His books, His messengers, the Last Day, and divine decree. Written for the modern seeker, it bridges traditional scholarship with contemporary need, offering rational proofs, addressing doubts, and ultimately serving as both an academic resource and a guide to nurturing a resilient, rooted faith. This book is the first in a three-part series designed to make the foundational beliefs of Islam practical, substantive, and transformative for today’s Muslim.
