Explanation of the Three Fundamental Principles (شرح الأصول الثلاثة ) of Shaykh Zayd al-Madkhalī
So this book called al-Uṣūl al-Thalāthah is from the best books of ʿaqīdah (creed) for the seeker of knowledge who is at the beginners level, or at an intermediate level. That means that no one from amongst the students of knowledge is without need of it for the explanation of the correct ʿaqīdah and whatever opposes it. Rather, no one from amongst the Muslims under obligation is free of need from it. So it is built to be memorised and have its meaning understood, and it is also befitting of being taught by the teachers and Scholars, not to mention that the issue of ʿaqīdah discussed herei…

The Legacy of Salafiyyah in the West
All praise and thanks are due to Allāh, we seek His Help and we seek His Forgiveness. We seek refuge with Him from the evil of our souls and the evil of our actions. Whosoever Allāh guides then none can misguide him, and whosoever Allāh leaves to stray then none can guide him. I bear witness that there is none worthy of worship save Allāh, the One Who has no partner and we bear witness that Muḥammad (ﷺ) is his servant and Messenger.
“O mankind! Be dutiful to your Lord, Who created you from a single person (Ādam), and from him (Ādam)He created his wife [Hawwa (Eve)], and fr…

And you hope for the mercy of Allāh, tabaaraka wa Taʿālá, upon the light the guidance of Allāh tabaaraka wa Taʿālá, an…
