General Precepts of Ahlus-Sunnah Wal Jamaa'ah

This is a translation of the Arabic booklet entitled:

Mujmal Usool Ahlus-Sunnah wal Jamaa'ah fil-'Aqeedah [A Summary of the

Fundamental Precepts of The People of the Sunnah and the Jamaa'ah With

Regards Beliefs and Creed], written by Shaykh Naasir al-'Aql, may Allaah protect

him.

Since there were certain terms and concepts, which were difficult to render

into sound English, I took recourse to brother Ali at-Tamimi's translation of

the book, which appeared in al-Basheer magazine a number of years ago.

[Al-Basheer magazine (March-April 1993CE; pp.8-20)].

May Allaah reward him with goodness and may He also reward those who

aided in checking and editing this present translation. Indeed Allaah is the

One Who hears and the One Who responds.

Finally, all praise is for Allaah, Lord of the worlds; and may He extol and send

the blessings of peace upon our master and leader (Sayyid), Muhammad; and

upon his Family, Companions and all those who follow them upon goodness.
