Written by the renowned Scholar and Sufi of Aleppo, Imam ‘Abdallah Sirajuddin al-Husayni (ra), The Testimony Of Faith elegantly portrays the beauty of the Shahada, the Islamic testimony of faith, Its Merits, Meanings, Requirements, and Effects.
To endeavor to know Allah is to fulfill the very purpose of our existence, and to know Him is to know His Beautiful Names, Attributes and Acts. In this work, taken from Ibn Ajiba's tafsir of Surah al-Fatiha, the author describes the meanings of Allah's 99 Beautiful Names.
The stories cover topics such as Tawhid, miracles of the Prophet (PBUH), stories of the Sahaba, and other various compilations that are relevant to the belief and life of every Muslim.
The first part of the book deals with the basic beliefs of Islam, the second with aspects of the faith that are widely misunderstood, and the third provides guidance for those wishing to tread the spiritual path.
