L'imam Abou Hassan Al Ach'ari

Praise be to Allah Who has blessed us manifest Book, and we sent The Best of His Prophets. May He be praised for His countless gifts and for what he has predestined and arranged. It is certainly the Most Clements, Sage, really.

That His favors and His Hi be upon His Messenger, who explained his Religion and transmitted to humanity without ambiguity or confusion.

This research is an objective approach to the Theological Thought of Abu Al Hasan Al Ash'ari. It aims to end a discord that ignorant stubborn continue to feed, and that involves the unity of Sounnites.

Many contemporary Muslims, especially among the younger generation, ignore the thought of Imam Abu Al Hasan Al Ash'ari, and yet, do not hesitate to denigrate and treat delusion!

This ignorance of ach'arisme is even more serious, although this doctrine is that of all Sounnites, if not the vast majority of them.

All scholars of the Ummah in the East and the West Muslims are ach'arites. Ibn Taymiyyah said of them:

"The scholars are those who defend the dogmas of religion, and Ach'arites are the defenders of the dogmas of religion. "(Al Fatawa al Kubra. Volume 4)

The Ach'arites are mouhaddîthoûn, exegetes, jurists, like Ibn Hajar Al 'Asqalani, Zakariyya Al Ansari, An-Nawawi, Al Qurtubi, Ibn Hajar Al Haythami, Fakhr ad-Din ar-Razi Al Baqillani, An-Nasafi, Ach-Chirbînî, and many others, which joined the thought of Imam Al Ash'ari (May God grant them all the Hi).

If this is not the Sounnites, who else will be?

The merits of this research presented to readers is that it basically refers to the writings of Imam Al Ash'ari, and exposes details with all the elements of his theology. His study will, we hope, to identify the exact responses of Orthodoxy sounnite on the basic tenets of Tawheed. Our thanks and heartfelt and sincere encouragement to the author. We pray to God (Exalted) he opened the doors of knowledge for he walks in the way of true knowledge in his community service.

May Allah grant us all His Assistance, We only like support. Is the best defenders. He grant His mercy and amenities to all pious front. It is He Who heareth requests. He is close to us and He is the Best Tutélaire.
