Kitab At-Tauhid is short and dense. Its author states a principle and lets the evidence carry the argument, with very little explanation of his own — which is deliberate, and which is exactly why the book has always been studied with a commentary alongside it.
This is that commentary, in Indonesian.
What It Explains
Chapter by chapter, the verses of the Quran, the authentic narrations and the statements of the early scholars that Shaykh Muhammad bin Abdul-Wahhab cited — why each was chosen, what it establishes, and how the argument of the chapter is built from them.
It gives sustained attention to shirk in its open and hidden forms, and to bid'ah, since those are what the original is largely concerned with. A reader who has worked through the text alone and found it terse will find this fills in what was assumed.
Who It Is For
Indonesian students of creed working through Kitab At-Tauhid, and teachers looking for a text to take a class through chapter by chapter.
Keterangan dalam Bahasa Indonesia
Ghoyatul Murid adalah syarah (keterangan) atas Kitab At-Tauhid karya Syaikh Muhammad bin Abdul Wahhab rahimahullah.
Kitab At-Tauhid ditulis dengan ringkas dan padat: penulisnya menyebutkan satu prinsip lalu membiarkan dalil-dalil Al-Qur'an dan As-Sunnah yang berbicara. Karena itulah kitab ini sejak dahulu dipelajari bersama syarahnya.
Buku ini menjelaskan bab demi bab ayat-ayat, hadits-hadits dan perkataan para ulama salaf yang dibawakan penulis asli — mengapa dipilih, apa yang ditunjukkannya, dan bagaimana bangunan dalil setiap babnya. Perhatian khusus diberikan kepada masalah syirik dan bid'ah.
