Aqeedah (Islamic creed)
The methodology of Aqeedah course and the foundations of religion aim to know Allah, love Him, and obey Him in the manner He pleases. This involves establishing the constants of religion in the soul, instilling the love for the Messenger of Allah, peace be upon him, and following his guidance through intellectual, rational, then psychological and doctrinal approaches. This is divided into four stages: a preliminary stage followed by three progressive levels based on practical applications, reviews, and periodic tests. Our motto here is: What a Muslim cannot afford to be ignorant of in matters of his religion and worldly life.
