Four Principles of Shirk-Yasir Qadhi

Four Principles of Shirk by Dr. Yasir Qadhi is an accessible and crucial theological work that meticulously examines the four key theological principles articulated by Imām Muḥammad ibn ‘Abd al-Wahhāb in his treatise Qawā’id al-Arba’ concerning Shirk (polytheism). Dr. Qadhi provides a detailed explanation and commentary on these principles, which fundamentally define the difference between the monotheism (Tawhīd) practiced by the polytheists of Makkah and the pure monotheism brought by the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The book is essential for understanding the core concepts of Islamic monotheism, identifying the various forms of idolatry (both major and minor), and safeguarding one’s ‘Aqīdah (creed) from deviation. It serves as a foundational text for clarifying and defending the purity of Islamic belief.
