This course focuses upon the the meaning and conditions of ash-shahadah (the testification of faith). As Muslims we have to understand that Islaam is a complete way of life for us. It is a guide for us, perfected by the Lord of the Worlds, and it is upon us to learn about it, and to follow it as best as we are able. In this explanation of a compilation of points by Sheikh Muhammad ibn 'Abdul Wahaab, we begin the journey towards understanding many important concepts of Islamic belief, and how we can implement them in our everyday lives, such as the answers to the questions we will be given in the grave, the meaning and conditions of ash-shahadah (the testification of faith), the meaning of at-tawheed (singling Allaah out for worship), and what exactly are those things which are worshipped other than Allaah.
The accompanying course book (purchased separately) includes:
Twenty Lessons On Knowledge, Beliefs, & Methodology with Quizzes, Review Questions & Lesson Benefits
The compiler, Umm Mujaahid, may Allaah preserve him, was stated in the introduction:
“....When teaching this course (previously)... I told them that it could have been called, “Survival Islaam”; as through this excellent compilation ‘al-Waajibaat’ one may attain a basic understanding of many of the most important aspects of our belief system. I stressed to them, as I do to you all, that all of this knowledge will not benefit you unless you act upon it.
And so I tried, throughout the explanations, to choose quotes from the scholars of both our times and the past, and to give examples and clarifications that will, insh’Allaah, assist the student in implementing these foundational principles in their own lives. Along with that, I made them each keep a journal in which they took accounting of themselves and their thoughts, speech and actions, in order that they be aware of their conditions, and see how they add up in the scales of good and bad. Armed with self- knowledge, one can see more clearly where improvements have to be made, insh’Allaah. I recommend that the reader also keep one of these little reckoning notebooks, at least for the duration of the course, and that he be honest with himself and take account at least once or twice a week, if not every day."
