In this series, Shaykh Abu Iyaad حفظه الله goes through the important principles of belief every Muslim should know. He explains the 6 pillars of Iman and other principles regarding the faith. This is a great introduction for someone who wants to begin their journey in studying Aqeedah.
The 6 pillars of Iman are established clearly in the famous Hadith of Jibril (Sahih Muslim 8) - Umar رضي الله عنه narrates: The man (Angel Jibril) said, "Then inform me about īmān." The Prophet ﷺ said, "Iman is to believe in Allah, His Angels, His Books, His Messengers, the Last Day, and to believe in the Divine Decree." He (Angel Jibril) said, "You have spoken truthfully."
The book Abu Iyaad is using as his reference through the class is “أصول الإيمان في ضوء الكتاب والسنة” which translates to “The Principles of Iman in light of the Quran and Sunnah”. This was written by three scholars: Saleh al-Suhaymi, Abdul-Razzaq al-Badr and Ibrahim al-Ruhayli. It was then composed and edited by two scholars: Ali Nasir Al-Faqihi and Ahmed bin Atiyah al-Ghamidi. Finally, it was published by the King Fahd Complex in 1421H. He also refers to commentary made by Saleh Aal al-Sheikh.
Disclaimer: I have combined some lessons together for easier understanding on which lessons each pillar is being taught in. So there might be 1 lesson that contains, for example 3 episodes that the Shaykh originally gave it in.
