Al-Hidayah Publishing & Distribution Ibn Utheymeen Sharh of Usool Al Thalatha English Edition Hard Cover
Product Overview
This English-language hardcover edition presents the commentary (Sharḥ) of the classical matn al‑Usūl ath‑Thalātha (“The Three Fundamental Principles”) originally authored by Muḥammad ibn ʿAbd al‑Wahhāb. In this work, Shaykh al-ʿUthaymīn explains the essential questions: Who is your Lord? What is your religion? Who is your Prophet? — providing clarity on what every Muslim is required to know.
Why This Edition Is Valuable
Accessible English translation & commentary – Makes a core classical text understandable for non-Arabic readers while preserving the depth of the original.
Hard-cover format – Durable and suitable for repeated study, library use or long-term reference.
Grounded in foundational Islamic knowledge – The Three Fundamental Principles are widely taught as a starting point in Islamic curricula.
Clarified by a well-respected scholar – Shaykh al-ʿUthaymīn’s commentary is known for its clarity and adherence to the methodology of the Salaf.
Suitable For
Students of knowledge looking to begin their journey into Uṣūl al-Dīn (principles of religion) in English.
Teachers and study circles seeking a reliable English-language commentary of a widely-used text.
Readers wanting an authoritative yet accessible overview of essential creed and manhaj (method).
Personal libraries of serious students and scholars who appreciate high-quality editions of classical works.
Additional Notes
Although the translation makes the text accessible, familiarity with basic Islamic terminology (e.g., tawḥīd, shirk, imān) will enhance understanding.
It’s best used in a slow, reflective manner: read a section, reflect on the questions, and consult commentary or a teacher for deeper insight.
Consider pairing it with the original Arabic edition of the matn if you are building your Arabic reading skills.
Keep this edition somewhere you can regularly revisit — the ideas are brief but profound, and repeated reading = greater benefit.
