Islamic Theology: The Creed of Deliverance

The Creed of Deliverance is a short poem composed by the great Moroccan scholar Imam Muhammad ibn Ja’far al-Kittānī. It contains the basic foundations of creed that were typically taught to young Muslim children as a premier text before they delved into more complex theological matters if that was the path they wanted to take. In this series Dr. Mohamed Ghilan offers a translation and commentary on the issues raised by the propositions asserted in each line of the poem. The recording was done as part of a short course to prepare young Muslims before they begin their post secondary education where they are sure to face serious intellectual challenges to their beliefs.
