      Translator's Foreword

      In the Name of Allaah, the Most Merciful; may He raise the rank of His final Messenger, and that of his family and companions, and may He grant them peace.

      What follows is a translation of the classic work of the great scholar of Najd, Shaykh al-Islaam Muhammad ibn 'Abdil-Wahhaab¹ (may Allaah have Mercy on him), Nawaaqidh al-Islaam, The Things that Nullify One's Islaam, along with a concise and beneficial explanation from the virtuous shaykh, Saalih al-Fowzaan² (may Allaah preserve him), as transcribed by 'Abdus-Salaam as-Sulaymaan (may Allaah reward him well) from the tapes of the shaykh's lessons. The text of Things that Nullify One's Islaam has been placed in a box at the beginning of each section, and its explanation is what follows. The footnotes that provide references to quoted material or other elaboration are all from the translator, unless otherwise noted.

      The book begins with the English text of Things that Nullify One's Islaam without any explanation. The text is then explained piece by piece by Shaykh Saalih al-Fowzaan.

      In shaa' Allaah, the reader will find the placement of all Qur'aanic Verses and Prophetic narrations in Arabic throughout the book, fully voweled, something that assists in the memorization of the important evidences related to this topic.

      The Arabic source for this translation is the book Silsilah Sharh ar-Rasaa'il (p.207-244), by Shaykh Saalih al-Fowzaan, printed by Mu 'assasah Fu 'aad in Beirut. Additional footnotes and two appendices have been added from Duroos fee Sharh Nawaaqidh al-Islaam (Daar Atlas al-Khadhraa', 1425), a longer explanation by the same author, may Allaah preserve him.

      One of the appendices includes 33 questions and answers on the topic. A glossary of Arabic terms used in the book is also included, along with mention of all resource books used for this translation. Finally, the original Arabic text of the book being explained: Things that Nullify One's Islaam, fully vowelled, is also included for those who want to memorize it.

      Before printing, we presented a copy of this book to Shaykh Saalih al-Fowzaan himself and asked for his permission to publish it. He requested Dr. Muhammad Luqmaan as-Salafee of the General Office of Scholastic Research, Fatwaa Giving, Da'wah, and Guidance in the city of at-Taa'if to review it.

      Dr. Muhammad then reviewed it, and wrote a memo to Shaykh Saalih, saying, …And I have read many sections of the translation and I have found it to be very good linguistically, with a gentle, delicate writing style… And indeed the translator has done very well in arranging the Arabic source along with the translation, presenting the book in a wonderful manner, and putting forth a profound effort to make the book easy to read and beneficial to those who read English…³

      So then Shaykh Saalih granted us permission to publish the book and make it available to the Muslims in the West. Here is the shaykh's handwritten response approving the publication of this book:

      We would like to offer our sincere thanks to all those who helped us with this project. Specifically, thanks are due to Aboo Ahmad an-Nahwee and Umm Umaamah of Makkah, Aboo Zakee of Canada, Shaykh Hamad al-'Uthmaan of Kuwait, Dr. Muhammad Luqmaan as-Salafee of Daar al-Iftaa', Aboo Faarooq and Umm Zakee. May Allaah reward them all generously and make their contribution a source of happiness for them in the Hereafter.

      So we put forth this effort, And whatever amount of good that is in it is from Allaah, and any mistakes or deficiencies in it are the result of our shortcomings, and you would do well to alert us and help us to correct them.⁴

      We pray that Allaah blesses this effort and enlightens some of His servants by way of it, and that He multiplies the reward of Shaykh al-Islaam Muhammad ibn 'Abdil-Wahhaab and that of Shaykh Saalih al-Fowzaan, and grants us a portion of their knowledge and understanding of His Religion.

      May Allaah raise the rank of Muhammad and grant him peace.

      Things that Nullify One's Islaam

      By Shaykh al-Islaam Muhammad ibn 'Abdil-Wahhaab

      In the Name of Allaah, the All-Merciful, the Ever-Merciful One…

      Know that the things that nullify one's Islaam (nawaaqidh) are ten things:

      The first one is shirk in one's worship of Allaah. Allaah the Most High has said, Verily Allaah does not forgive that partners be ascribed to Him, while He forgives what is less than that for whomever He wants.⁵ And He, the Most High, has said, "Verily whoever ascribes a partner to Allaah, then Allaah has made Paradise haraam (impermissible) for him (i.e. He will never enter it), and his abode is the Fire. And there are no helpers for the oppressors whatsoever."⁶ And from it (this first naaqidhah) is to slaughter (an animal) for other than Allaah, like the one who slaughters for a jinn or for a grave.

      The second one: Whoever sets up intermediaries between himself and Allaah, calls on them, asks them for things, and places his trust in them, then he has disbelieved, by way of scholarly consensus.

      The third one: Whoever does not declare the polytheists to be disbelievers, or he doubts their disbelief or approves of their way, then he has disbelieved.

      The fourth one: Whoever believes that guidance other than Muhammad's (may Allaah raise his rank and grant him peace) is more complete than his, or that the rulings of others are better than his rulings, like the one who prefers the rulings of at-tawaagheet over his rulings, then he is a disbeliever.

      The fifth one:
