Written By

l-Iʿtiqādāt fī Dīn al-Imāmīyya — famously known as Iʿtiqādāt al-Ṣadūq — is one of the earliest and most significant works on Shia theology, authored by the eminent scholar al-Shaykh al-Ṣadūq (d. 381/991-2). Written at the request of scholars in Nishapur, this concise yet profound text outlines the foundational beliefs of the Imāmī (Twelver Shia) school, supported by narrations from the Infallible Imams (peace be upon them).

This English translation, presented by Team Al-Karbala, seeks to remain faithful to the original Arabic text while offering clarity and accessibility to modern readers. With the aid of AI-assisted translation and careful human review, we have endeavored to preserve the depth and authenticity of al-Ṣadūq’s words.
