Someone asked before what the "Summa" of Islam is. I said that depends on your creed. I will repeat my suggestions on this with more information on each creed.

Maturidi creed: upholding the doctrine of free will and natural law, Maturidis place high value on reason, science and classical philosophy. Their jurisprudence is Hanafi. The Maturidi "Summa" is Tabsirat al-Adilla

Ash'ari creed: denying efficient causation and natural law, Ash'aris subscribe to decisionism and consider esoteric teachings of the Sufis to be the focal truth of Islam. Ash'ari jurisprudence includes two schools, Shafi'i and Maliki. The Ash'ari "Summa" is "Iyha Ulum al-Din"


Athari Creed: rejecting layers of interpretation of the Qur'an, Atharis believe the text only has one meaning and that meaning is plain. Their school of jurisprudence is Hanbali. The Athari "Summa" is Ibn Taymiyya's "Kitab al Iman"

I thought the "summa" of Islam was something to do with how half the Muslim world practices systematic inbreeding?

I remember reading the discourses of the great Imam Yusuf Suleyman telling that even the Camels of the Holy Man who having witnessed All'aah in his Spirit are more knowledgeable of the surrounding world than even the most prestigious scientists of the Kaffir nations

This may be true: for what good is knowledge if it only leads to whoredom, sorceries and does not include the sweet fruits of Jannaah?

Well western learning has indeed brought upon a level of ignorance below that of beasts, saying there is no difference between men and women for example

The Great Imam Yusuf Suleyman told me that it is the work of Shaytan to destroy the Human Form and now we are seeing the fruits of this Peacock Angel in human Realm by the doctors of Kaffir nations dissecting all sorts of neo-vaginas from the penis of man

The Shaytan, having a distaste for Human Form and hate for it and not willing to Submit to it wants to destroy it thus rendering the human form obsolete. This is why Kaffir nations are also predominately concerned of trans-humanism and replacing the various parts created by Allaah by mechanical kafir-made parts of steel

Truly for the Kafir the al-Insān al-Kāmil is something of a caricature of neo-vaginas and perhaps some sort of neo-penises: all works of Shaytan

Thanks for being redpilled brother muslims, this sounds almost exactly like what a Catholic saint would say except with Christian lingo substituted. Good to know there are other brothers out there fighting the good fight against the dehumanization of the human body.

Satan's defiance in the Qur'an is explicitly out of hatred for the human form

that's interesting - in the Qur'an is Satan still considered a fallen angel? St. Thomas Aquinas has some very intricate views on angels, it would be interesting to see how Muslims view them differently

Most consider him a jinn, which are like angels except they can rebel and die, hence they function as what you call demons, but many are good, albeit they stay out of human affairs. A minority opinion holds him to be angel.

>I have placed the foundation of this work on four books for two reasons. The first basic reason is that I have incorporated in this book well-arranged rules and their real nature, so that they may be easily understood, as the knowledge by which the next world is known is of two kinds - knowledge of outward behaviours and usages and the knowledge of revelation, inspiration, secret and subtle matters. What I mean by this knowledge is the knowledge for attaining the submum bonum or the ultimate object of life. What I understand by the science of outward behaviours and usages is the knowledge of practical religion attended with actions in accordance with that knowledge. The object of this work is only to narrate the science of practical religion and usages and not to narrate the science of revelation and inspiration, as there is no permission to put the latter into black and white though the science of revelation is the ultimate object of those who search after truth and the most coveted matter in the eye of the extremely truthful, and the best way of acquiring knowledge of worldly uses. The Holy Prophet did not speak anything about the science of revelation except through signs and symbols, because he knew that the wisdom of men to understand it is very little. There is no means of the learned other than the path of the prophets, as the learned are the heirs of the prophets. The science of practical religion are of two kinds-open science of the actions of the physical senses and the secret science of the functions of the heart. The actions which keep connection with the physical senses are the actions of habits or usages of life. The heart which comes from the unseen world and is removed ultimately from the senses is influenced by either the praiseworthy virtues or the blame-worthy vices. In short, the science of practical religion is divided into open and secret sciences. The open science and usages of life. The secret science keeps connection with the condition of heart and its qualities and is sub-divided into praise-worthy virtues and blame-worthy vices.

>Jesus Christ also said : The world lies behind you and you take seat thereon. Therein the kings and women stand as stumbling blocks against you. Don't dispute with the kins regarding this world, as they will not stand in your way if you give up connection with them and their affairs.

>Will has got two elements in it-knowledge and action. Knowledge comes before action as it is the basis of action and action comes after knowledge. Action is the fruit of knowledge and its branch. Action is not complete without three things-Knowledge, will and strength. Man does not will to do a thing which he does not known and so knowledge is necessary for an action. Again he does not do a thing even if he knows it unless he has the will to do it. So will or intention is also necessary. Again will is not sufficient to do a thing. Power or strength is also necessary to implement will. How many people there are who cannot eat for want of their strength even though they have got will to eat. So knowledge, will and strength are necessary for an action. First knowledge and then will and then action follow one after another. Without knowledge of a thing, a man does not intend to have that thing. Without will or intention, there is no movement of physical organs to do that thing. So action is the fruit of will and will is the fruit of knowledge.

>Journey is a means to ward off undesirable thing or to get objects of love, it is of two kinds-(1) Physical journey from one's native place to a distant country and (2) mental or spiritual journey to God in heaven. The latter is better, but it is fraught with dangers and difficulties and the path is unknown and unacquainted. The sojourners are indifferent to the wealth of this path. Hence the so journers in this pathare few. God says of this path : I shall show them My signs in the vacant regions and in yourselves . God says : There are signs in the world and in yourselves for the believers. Don't you mind? He who keeps away from this journey is said by God in the following verse as an unbveliever : You pass by these sings morning and evening. Don't you understand? God says : How many sign there are in the heavens and the earth which appear to them always but they remain heedless from them. He who remains satisfied with this journey, roam in such a paradise cheefully which extends to the heavens and the earth, though his body remains in his house.
