About The Book

Sharh Wasitat al-Suluk is Imam al-Sanusi's auto-commentary on his own treatise Wasitat al-Suluk — an exposition of the spiritual path that combines Ashari aqida with practical Sufi tarbiya. Where the Sanusi corpus is best known for its graduated aqida texts (al-Muqaddimat, al-Sughra al-Sughra, al-Sughra/Umm al-Barahin, al-Wusta, al-Kubra) and their commentaries, the Wasita and its commentary open the same author's thought on the inner sciences. The result is a uniquely-integrated presentation of Maliki-Ashari-Sufi spirituality from one of its formative voices.

About The Author

Imam Abu Abd Allah Muhammad b. Yusuf al-Sanusi (832-895 AH / 1427-1490 CE) was a Tlemceni Maliki scholar whose creedal works became the standard aqida curriculum of the Maliki-Ashari world from Morocco to West Africa. His Umm al-Barahin (al-Aqida al-Sughra) and the graduated series of texts around it have been continuously taught for more than five centuries.

About the author

Muhammad ibn Yusuf al-Sanusi: Al-Sanusi (832-895 AH, 1428-1490 CE) was a theologian, jurist, and Sufi who lived his whole life in Tlemcen, in what is now western Algeria, and is counted among the most influential Ashʿari authorities of the post-classical Maghrib. Honored by later tradition as a saint and renewer, he was Ashʿari in creed and Maliki in law. His abiding concern was pedagogical, to make sound belief accessible to ordinary Muslims, not only scholars, by grounding each article of faith in clear rational proof rather than mere transmission. He is best known for a graded series of creeds calibrated to different levels of student, from the longer al-ʿAqida al-Kubra and al-Wusta down to the short al-Sughra and the brief al-Sughra al-Sughra. The al-Sughra, famous as Umm al-Barahin (Mother of Proofs), became one of the most taught theological texts in the Muslim world, studied from West Africa to Southeast Asia and still in seminary use today. Al-Sanusi wrote his own commentaries on these creeds, and his works generated a vast tradition of glosses and super-commentaries. The titles gathered here, including the commentaries on the Sughra, the Wusta, the Muqaddimat, and Wasitat al-Suluk, alongside the multi-volume Silsila al-ʿAqdiyya, reflect that enduring teaching legacy in systematic Ashʿari theology and creed.
