Adab al-wazīr (Arabic) · Ansāb al-ʻArab al-qudamāʼ (Arabic)
“No man among the Muslims has a greater reward than an upright vizier with an imām whom he obeys and whom he enjoins to what is God the Exalted's own due.
in the texts
Bayān zaghl al-ʻilm wa-al-ṭalab
The Muslim community at large, alternately despised by the precisian reciter, made happy or humiliated by its grip on the Qur'an, and endangered by the concealed heretic.
[5] (1) The sciences of the readings are among the noblest of the sciences, for their attachment to the Wise Qur'an, by which the Muslims are made happy when they hold fast to its guidance in the affairs of both worlds, and by which they meet humiliation and misery if they cast it behind their backs.
in them there is a finicking over-nicety (*tanaṭṭuʻ*) and a surplus of refinement, which leads to this — that the reciter who articulates precisely remains with his whole ambition turned toward the observance of the letters and toward the finicking over their articulation, so that this occupies him away from pondering the meanings of the Book of God Most High, and turns him aside from humility (*k …
[12] (1) The zindīq who makes an outward show of Islam while persisting in the insinuation of his poisons among the Muslims:
Adab al-wazīr
The Muslim community, named in the ḥadīth that ranks the reward of an upright vizier above that of other Muslims.
“No man among the Muslims has a greater reward than an upright vizier with an imām whom he obeys and whom he enjoins to what is God the Exalted's own due.
“Upon every Muslim there is alms.
Mukhtaṣar fī ʻilm al-nafs al-insānīyah
The Muslim community, characterised in the doxography as holding without exception that the soul is the bodily frame, yet agreeing with Aristotle and the Christians on the bodily resurrection.
Those who supposed it a body claimed that it (2) is this bodily frame — and these are the Muslims (3) one and all, and some of the Christians.
that, Arisṭūṭālīs and the Christians and the Muslims acknowledge (1) this, and the return of bodies to their souls
*al-muslimīn*.
Ansāb al-ʻArab al-qudamāʼ
The community whose beliefs European writers misreported despite living among them, invoked to show how easily an outside observer invents the customs of a people.
and they used to suppose Muḥammad an idol worshipped by the Muslims — even Eulogius, one of the learned priests of Cordova, for all his mingling with the Muslims in that capital, wrote of Islam fabrications that have no foundation in their books nor in their teachings:
and that what is commonly held — the tracing of the Arabs to Ishmael and Qaḥṭān among the fathers of the Torah, and the descent of the tribes in the familiar form — is but a thing newly brought about, devised by men with ends to serve at a recent date not going back beyond the first century of the Hijrah, founded upon the register of the Imām ʻUmar ibn al-Khaṭṭāb in the matter of the Muslims' righ …
Nay, how can this be said when Islam, from its appearance to its spread, is built upon Qaḥṭānī and ʻAdnānī descent, and the caliphs were urging the Muslims to preserve their genealogies and to be exact in them?
Kitāb al-Zawrāʼ wa-al-taʻlīqāt ʻalayhi
The community for whom the closing supplication asks preservation from error and stumbling.
God preserve us and the rest of the Muslims from error and from stumbling, and grant us success in what concerns us of resolve and word and deed.
Kitāb madhāhib al-Aʻrāb wa-falāsifat al-Islām fī al-jinn
The Muslim community, whose agreement is adduced twice as proof of the jinn's existence and accountability.
Not one of the sects of the Muslims has differed about the existence of the jinn, and likewise the generality of the unbelievers, because their existence is borne by the reports of the prophets in a mass transmission (tawātur) known by compulsion, which ⟨.
And the text has come with that, and with their being a community possessed of intellect and discrimination, ramified, promised and threatened, propagating, and dying;
al-Saʻādah fī falsafat al-akhlāq
The Muslim community, named as the holders of the mistaken belief that sophistry was founded by a man called Sūfisṭā.
It is not as the Muslims of Islam suppose, that in ancient time there was a man called Sūfisṭā who rejected the realities of the existents, and that he had a party who upheld his doctrine and were named after him;
Risālat al-Wāridāt
The Muslim community, invoked by Riḍā as the community whose Sufis, alongside the religious philosophers, supply the opinions digested in the epistle.
) In this epistle the Shaykh — God have mercy upon him and pardon him — gathered the gist of the opinions of the philosophers of the revealed religions and of the Sufis of the Muslims on the principles of religion:
Risālat baqāʼ al-nafs baʻda fanāʼ al-jasad
The Islamic community whose original Qur'anic outlook subordinated the whole world to divine power, and which then undertook the translation and reception of foreign philosophy.
and there spread among the Muslims philosophical views and intellectual principles, which a body of the scholars of the Muslims received with firm faith and settled conviction.
