Lumatul I'tiqaad (The Illuminating Creed)

Lumaʿat al-Iʿtiqād (The Illuminating Creed) is a foundational text in Sunni creed authored by Imām Ibn Qudāmah رحمه الله. The work presents a clear, concise, and authentic outline of the beliefs of Ahl al-Sunnah wa’l-Jamāʿah, firmly rooted in the Qur’an, the Sunnah, and the understanding of the Salaf.

Taught by Shaykh Ibrāhīm Ibn ‘AbdiDhāhir, the course aims to strengthen certainty in core matters of ʿaqīdah, remove doubts, and cultivate a sound and balanced belief free from theological speculation and innovation.

• The stance of Ahl al-Sunnah on īmān, Qadr (divine decree), and the unseen

• How the Salaf approached creed with clarity, submission, and textual evidence

• Common deviations in ʿaqīdah and how this text safeguards against them
