Understanding the Way of Islamic Beliefs

Imam Dardir's Kharida Explained

with Shaykh Faraz Rabbani



Essential Beliefs. Underlying Methodology. Spiritual Relevance.


This course will cover one of the foremost core texts (mutun) in Islamic beliefs, Imam Ahmad al-Dardir's al-Kharida al-Bahiyya, with the goal of giving us a solid understanding of:


(1) The essential beliefs--we must believe about Allah, Prophets, and Transmitted Matters--with clarity and depth, as transmitted by the great imams of Islam.

(2) The underlying methodology of mainstream Islamic beliefs—the way of the Ash`aris and Maturidis—including the breakdown of rational and normative rulings, which is the basis of sound reasoning, and a brief overview of traditional Islamic logic.

(3) The centrality of transcendence (tanzih) in sound beliefs, and its clear Qur'anic basis, through investigation of the verses some interpret in ways that entail affirming similitude between Allah and His creation (tashbih, anthropomorphism).

(4) How the traditional understanding of Islamic beliefs assists in bringing one's faith to life, and is a means towards realization and understanding of the light of the Qur'an and Prophetic example.


Format: 12 Downloadable MP3 Lessons Plus Forum

The course will run for 12 weeks, with 12 downloadable mp3 lessons (one per week), and a discussion forum for questions and related discussions.

A full translation of Imam Dardir's text will be provided, along with other related texts. The work will also be available in Arabic, with its commentary.

Audience: Both Beginning and Students of Knowledge

This course is suitable both for (1) those seeking a first in-depth exposure to Islamic beliefs and (2) seekers of knowledge with previous study of Islamic beliefs (aqida), seeking to deepen and strengthen their understanding of this foundational Islamic science.

"This is an excellent statement of beliefs

Which I have named 'The Radiant Pearl'

Though light and small in size,

It is tremendous in the knowledge it contains."

Dardir, al-Kharida al-Bahiyya
