Title: Imam Abu Al Hassan Al Ash'ari

Author: Farid Chairi

Edition: KNOWLEDGE

Medium: Book

Theme: The life of the prophet (sbdl) & The history of Islam

Description: This book is the first of its kind, it aims to fill a void and provide basic knowledge on Ash'arite theology, misunderstood by the Muslim mass, especially young people. Thus, the doctrine of Imam Al Ach'ari is that of the golden mean. Indeed, the use of reason in Ash'arite dogmatic theology is obvious. Simply, unlike the Mu'tazilites, Imam Al Ach'ari maintained the primacy of the Texts over reason. Al Ach'ari thus stands against any innovator, in accordance with what Ibn 'Asakir reports, who emphasizes that Ash'arism is a supporter of the Sunna, a defender of the Shari'a; standing up against the innovators who are the Qadarites, the Rafidites, and others... Between the anthropomorphic conception of the Attributes of Allah and their negation by their reduction to the divine essence, Al Ach'ari affirms, on the contrary, the Uniqueness and Eternity of Divine Attributes.
