The Explanation of the Four Principles – Sheikh Abdu Razzâq Al-‘Abbad Al-Badr
The Sheikh – may Allah have mercy on him – gathered in this treatise four principles and mentioned their evidences taken from the Book of Allah – Exalted is He – and from the Sunnah of His Prophet (may Allah’s praise and peace be upon him). Whoever examines these principles carefully and understands them will not find the matter confusing, things will not be ambiguous to him, and he will not be deceived by the misguidance of the misguiders nor by the falsehoods of the people of falsehood. These are four eminent and tremendous principles, which no Muslim can dispense with in the chapter of knowing monotheism, polytheism, and distinguishing between the truth—which is monotheism—and the falsehood—which is polytheism.
