La inspiracion del Glorioso

Ésta es la traducción al español de 'Fath al-Maŷîd'. Este libro trata sobre diferentes aspectos del monoteísmo y la idolatría. El objetivo del autor es poner de manifiesto las enseñanzas del Profeta Muhammad (la paz sea con él), destruyendo los mitos construidos en torno a supersticiones y malentendidos surgidos de la ignorancia y de la introducción de conceptos ajenos al islam y su monoteísmo.

«There is no god but Allah.» This fundamental Islamic statement of faith sums up the concept of tawheed, or perfect monotheism. That there is one and only one God is the basis of all monotheistic religion. Yet, despite the simplicity of this belief, many people who claim to believe in one divine Creator have fallen into errors which negate their testimony of faith.

Shaykh Muhammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhâb, the great Muslim scholar and reformer of the 12th century H (18th century CE), was inspired to write the book Kitâb at-Tawheed (or The Book of Islamic Monotheism) because he saw Muslims who had corrupted their beliefs and actions by that which contradicted the pure monotheistic position of Islam. He witnessed the religious veneration of historical sites and graves, supplications made for the intercession of deceased saints, belief in omens, distortions of the meanings of Allah’s names and attributes, and the use of expressions which contradict the belief in Allah’s Oneness. In an effort to purify Islam from this falsehood, the esteemed Shaykh collected proofs from the Noble Qur’an and the teaching of Allah’s Messenger (peace and blessing be upon him) to explain all aspects of true monotheism.

However, this book was not intended for the average person, but for the student of knowledge; therefore, it is not easily understood by those without the requisite learning. Thus, the scholar 'Abdur-Rahmân ibn Hasan Al-ash-Shaykh stepped in and put together this well-known work, which he entitled Fath al-Majeed (or The Glorious Triumph). It both explains and expounds upon Kitâb at-Tawheed to make its important concepts clear for the reader. It has been rendered here into Spanish by Muhammad Isa García.
