A concise verse guide to three Islamic sciences

Abd al-Wahid ibn Ashir’s text brings together three areas of Islamic learning in verse: Maliki jurisprudence (fiqh), Ashʿari theology (ʿaqida), and Junaydi Sufism (tasawwuf). The description identifies it as a primary text used for learning Islam in North Africa and notes that this edition presents its first complete English translation. Its scope makes the volume a compact introduction to these distinct but connected disciplines, with the original work’s verse form shaping how their teachings are summarized.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Those seeking an English translation of a traditional Islamic learning text.
  • Readers interested in Maliki fiqh, Ashʿari ʿaqida, or Junaydi tasawwuf.
  • Students exploring Islamic scholarly traditions associated with North Africa.

Book overview

Al-Murshid al-Mu'een is a widely recognised primary text for learning Islam in North Africa. In it the author, Abd al-Wahid ibn 'Ashir, summarises in verse the three sciences of Islam, Iman and Ihsan: Maliki fiqh, Ash'ari 'aqida and Junaidi tasawwuf. This is its first complete translation into English. Dr. Asadullah Yate is also the translator of Shaykh Ahmad bin al-Bashir al-Qalawi ash-Shinqiti's (1216 AH/1802 CE- 1276 AH/1853 CE) Mufid al-'Ibad, a very full commentary on al-Murshid al-Mu'een, which is published by Diwan Press in English as "Islam in the School of Madina".
