The "Al-Kalamiyyah Al-Tariqah" and it is not surprising, for its author is one of the pillars of creed in the Maghreb.

The "Al-Murshidah" was also explained by a scholar from Tlemcen, Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Abi Al-Abbas Ahmad bin Ismail bin Ali Al-Umawi, known as Ibn Al-Naqqash. He named his explanation "Al-Durrah Al-Mufradah fi Sharh Al-Aqidah Al-Murshidah" and described it by saying: "I explain in it the individual terms of the creed mentioned in the explanation of Al-Aqidah Al-Murshidah, in a clear and transmitted manner, without deviating towards brevity. Nor is there a tendency towards lengthiness or excess."

And what is mentioned in this explanation, indicating the circulation of "Al-Murshidah" among people and its prevalence among them, is his saying: "And when it was among what the Mahdi [presumably Ibn Tumart] set forth to approximate the understanding of the common people and to facilitate for everyone, the concise creed, well-arranged in speech, good in order, connected in meanings, and designated as 'Al-Murshidah'. The group of فقراء (ascetics/poor) and righteous scholars hastened to memorize and recite it, who gathered in the protected Tlemcen under their sheikh and role model, the pious, knowledgeable, Sufi traveler, and ascetic, Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Sheikh Al-Mubarak Abi Zayd Abd Al-Rahman Al-Yaznami, the teacher of the Book of Allah. ... And may Allah be pleased with him, he was of a lineage that reached us, and he held onto a chain."

What is mentioned in the catalog of manuscripts of the Great Mosque of Meknes regarding this explanation, from the phrase "attributed to Al-Sittini Al-Hinnini (sic) bin Omar and those with him." In reality, the phrase "and those with him" is the invention of the cataloger and is not present in the manuscript. This is either because the cataloger was content with mentioning the name of one of the authors of the collection [and this explanation is within a collection] and referring to the others with the word "and those with him," which is the cataloger's usual practice. Or it is due to reading the name mentioned at the beginning of the manuscript, where there is a small error that suggests the authorship is shared, which is the omission of the word "bin" after Bakr, the famous one from Ténès, Al-Sittini. The correct version, as in other copies, is "Ibn Abi Bakr."

And it is correct that he is Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Abi Al-Abbas Al-Umawi, Ibn Al-Naqqash, and Muhammad bin Ahmad bin Ismail Al-Naqqash (Murshidat Ibn Tumart: Al-Adil, Al-Khatib, Al-Ustadh, Al-Maghribi, Al-Kamil, Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Sheikh Al-Marhum Abi Al-Abbas Ahmad bin Ismail bin Ali Al-Umawi, known as Ibn Al-Naqqash). Sheikh Al-Manuni also pointed out that among this explanation's copies is one in the Dar Al-Kutub Al-Nasiriyyah in Tamgrout: Civilization of the Draa Valley, p. 305-306. Al-Durrah Al-Mufradah: Ibn Al-Naqqash (188).
