ABSTRACT : In Kitab al-Irshad, Imam al-Juwayni presents a logical and rational guide to the principles of Islamic belief. He discusses the importance of intellectual evidence in proving the existence of God and His attributes, emphasizing that faith in God and the Prophets must be based on conclusive proof rather than blind imitation. The book focuses on fundamental beliefs such as the oneness of God, the prophethood, and the Day of Judgment, and shows how reason can be used to reach evidence for these principles through logical thinking and philosophical reasoning.
