How to walk this

المنهج

Hold Tahawi’s creed. Pray. Do not put a Muslim who says the shahada outside Islam over a phrase you met last week. The four schools of law already sit on this shelf. The creed books sit beside them. You still need a living teacher.

Next: Tahawi’s creed with someone who has studied it. Then, if you want more, the Gleam or the Wasit Creed — or Nasafi or Sanusi, if that is the land you live in.
