Fundamental Beliefs of Islam (Al Aqeedah Al Wasitiyyah)

Your beliefs shape everything. How you worship, how you handle hardship and how you understand Allah’s Names and Attributes. But with so much conflicting information out there, it’s easy to feel unsure about what’s actually authentic.

This course walks you through al-Aqeedah al-Wasitiyyah by Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah. It’s one of the most trusted texts in Islamic creed. You’ll study the beliefs of the Salaf (the early righteous predecessors) step by step, with clear proof from the Quran and Sunnah.

No guesswork. No confusion. Just solid foundations you can hold on to with confidence.

What Students Will Learn

• The core beliefs of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama’ah and their reliance on the Quran and Sunnah.
• How the statements of the Salaf serve as a guide to refute deviant ideologies.
• Principles regarding the Names and Attributes of Allah in line with the Quran and Sunnah.
• The correct understanding of matters such as Qadr (divine decree), Iman (faith), and Tawheed (oneness of Allah).
• How to differentiate between authentic beliefs and innovations in creed.

Who is this Course for?

This course is for any Muslim who wants to understand Islamic creed properly. Whether you’re new to studying Aqeedah or you’ve been learning for a while, al-Wasitiyyah gives you a clear framework rooted in the Quran and Sunnah. It suits anyone who wants clarity over confusion.

You don’t need any prior knowledge to get started. The course breaks down each topic in a way that’s easy to follow, even if you’ve never studied a classical text before.

If you’ve ever struggled to answer questions about Qadr, Tawheed or the Names of Allah, this course gives you those answers directly from the sources the Salaf relied on.

Why Learn Al Aqeedah Al Wasitiyyah

Aqeedah is the foundation of your entire faith. Every act of worship, every du’a and every decision you make goes back to what you believe about Allah. Getting this wrong doesn’t just affect your knowledge. It affects your relationship with your Creator.

The internet is full of opinions on creed. Some are authentic. Many are not. This course cuts through that noise by taking you straight to the Quran, the Sunnah and the understanding of the Salaf.

You’ll walk away knowing what you believe and why you believe it. That kind of certainty changes everything.
