"Tajreed al-Etiqad" is one of the authentic Shia books, which was written in the 7th century of Hijri on theology and beliefs of Shia.
The structure of this book as well as the way of dealing with the topics in it are interesting. This very prominent and solid theological book has six "maqqas" that is, six sections or chapters.
These six "destinations" are:
The first destination in public affairs,
The second destination in Jawaharlal Nehru,
The third goal is to prove the creator and his attributes.
The fourth destination in prophecy,
The fifth destination in Imamat
And the sixth or final destination in resurrection.
The first and second destinations, i.e. public affairs and jewels and symptoms, have dealt more with the issues raised in the first philosophy. The reason for this is that public affairs, jewels, and diseases are among the basics of theological debates.
One of the interesting points about this book is that this work, despite its mastery and strength of content, is very brief to the extent that it is considered the most concise and concise Shia theological text.
These matters, i.e. mastery, in their brevity, have caused many notes and explanations to be written on this treatise in Persian and Arabic languages.
It is well-known that the first description of Tajrid was written by the most famous student of Khwaja Nasir Tusi, Allameh Halli, and he called it "Kashf al-Murad fi Sharh Tajrid al-Itqad" (6).
Some other famous interpretations of "Abstraction of Belief" are:
"Tsedid or the construction of rules in the description of abstraction of beliefs", (7) known as "Sharh al-Qadim", by Shams al-Din Mahmoud bin Ab
