The treatise is regarding the foundations of the correct creed, since Imaam Ahmad, may Allaah have mercy upon him, is the Imaam of the Sunnah in truth; and he needs no introduction, for he is the well-known cultivating Imaam; the figurehead of the well-known juristic school; he clarified that out of sincere advice to the Ummah and to fulfill the trust. It is a treatise which aids the beginner in understanding the foundations of the magnificent Islamic religion, since it enlightens him to the teachings of the religion and its fundamentals, and it is a reminder to the seasoned one.
