The work begins with a summarized explanation of the famous Hadith of Jibril, followed by key concepts such as the definition of Iman, the virtue of the Shahadah, and other core principles of faith, presented in a clear and accessible manner. Shaykh Siddiq Hast Khan, born in Banis Barele of noble lineage tracing back to the Prophet ﷺ, became a prominent Sunni scholar of his era. At 21, he traveled to Delhi, the center of Islamic learning, mastering Arabic, Fiqh, Tafsir, Hadith, and other sciences under renowned scholars such as Shaykh ʿAbd al-ʿAziz Dehlawi and Shaykh ʿAbd al-Qadir Muhaddith Banarsi. In 1871, while serving the state of Bhopal, he attained the status of Nawab, using his position to establish mosques, orphanages, and research centers, and to promote Islamic scholarship. He invested heavily in acquiring rare Islamic manuscripts—including Tafsir al-Kathir, Fath al-Bari, and Nayl al-Awtar—bringing previously unavailable texts to the Indian Subcontinent and making Bhopal a hub for scholars and students of Hadith. Shaykh Siddiq Hast Khan’s vast literary contributions include Fathud Bayan fi Maqasid al-Qur’an, Fathul ‘Allam bi Sharh Bulugh al-Maram, Makarim al-Akhlaq, Ieihaf an-Nubala, and Abjad al-Ulum, reflecting his profound knowledge, eloquence, and dedication to Islamic learning. Ta‘lim al-Iman serves as an ideal introduction for students seeking to understand the fundamentals of faith and the virtues of knowledge in Islam. Show more
