The Illuminating Creed" is a detailed and explanatory examination of the great Islamic creedal work "Lumatul I'tiqaad" penned by Ibn Qudamah al-Maqdisi (1147-1223 CE), a notable Islamic philosopher and theologian from Jerusalem. "Lumatul I'tiqaad" is a simple yet comprehensive treatise on the Islamic creed (Aqidah) that describes the Islamic faith's core principles and tenets. It provides a clear and cohesive grasp of essential theological truths as taught by the early generations of Muslims, with a concentration on Tawheed (monotheism) and Allah's characteristics.

This work's commentary digs deep into each section or chapter of "Lumatul I'tiqaad," providing by explanations, supporting evidence from the Quran and Hadith, and perspectives from other renowned Islamic theologians.

This is a commentary of the classic treatise Lumatul I’tiqaad (The Illuminating Creed) of the great Imam, Abu Muhammad Muwaffaq-ud-Deen Ibn Qudamah AI Maqdisi, may Allah have mercy on him. In this book, Ibn Qudamah presents the Creed of the Salaf as is the custom of the scholars of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jamaa’ah in every century — to preserve the authentic Creed by way of writing it down in books and spreading it. So this Creed became well known amongst the scholars and studied in the gatherings of knowledge. In fact the treatise continues to be studied and reviewed by students of knowledge throughout the world.
