Foundations of Faith is a clear, structured guide to the six pillars of Islamic belief (Iman), written for readers who want a reliable, easy-to-follow explanation grounded directly in the Quran and authentic hadith.
Built around the famous Hadith of Jibril, the book walks through each article of faith one chapter at a time: belief in Allah, the angels, the revealed scriptures, the prophets and messengers, the Last Day, and divine decree (Qadar). Every concept is explained in plain language and supported by Quranic verses cited by surah and ayah, and hadith cited by their source collection, so readers can verify every reference against the original text.
Rather than a dry theological survey, this book connects each pillar of faith to its practical effect on daily life — how belief in Qadar builds patience and gratitude, how belief in the Last Day shapes moral accountability, and how belief in Allah's names and attributes deepens sincere worship.
Foundations of Faith is written for:
- New Muslims seeking a clear, well-sourced introduction to core beliefs
- Students of Islamic studies who want a concise reference organized by topic
- Homeschooling families and study circles covering the six articles of Iman
- Any reader curious about the foundations of Islamic theology, explained with clarity and without oversimplification
Each chapter closes with a short summary to reinforce the key points before moving to the next pillar, making the book easy to use for both cover-to-cover reading and topic-by-topic reference.
