The poles and the extinct » this is the path he chose for himself. This book collects the Sufi views of Ibn al-Senussi, even though these views do not belong to the Senussi Sufi order, because Ibn al-Senussi in the order did not follow everything that was transmitted from other orders, but rather chose something that formed the content of his order. This is what we will explain elsewhere. The Ten Issues "The Goal of the Objectives in the Summary of the Observatories." Ibn al-Senussi begins his book by stating the reason for its compilation. When he was in Medina, he received many questions from many people, especially from the East and the West, asking about the validity of what the objectors say about adhering only to the Book and the Sunnah, especially concerning the rulings on prayer, such as raising the hands, clasping them, and the Basmala, etc., requesting its verification and the evidence for it. This is to refute some of the religious scholars who are accustomed to criticizing those who act upon the Sunnah. He delves into the subject from its origins - as is his custom in all his books - and the author emphasizes thoroughness and comprehensiveness from all aspects. He begins with an introduction on the status of the imams of the Salaf and those who followed their path and adhered to the Book and the Sunnah. Then he discusses the first observatory on the meanings of the doctrine, fatwa, and qiyas. Then he deals in detail with the fatwa and discusses imitation in it. Then he talks in the fourth chapter about the types of ijtihad and the types of mujtahids, their reality and the conditions of a mujtahid. Then he presents people's attitudes towards acting upon hadith. In the second observatory, he explains how the people of selection pray, describing the prayer of the Prophet and mentioning the pillars of prayer and its obligations. Then he mentions the texts of the imams on the ten issues, which are: raising the hands in prayer, clasping, the three silences, seeking refuge, the Basmala, saying "Amen," the takbir for standing for the third rak'ah, the salutation, the qunut, and lengthening and shortening the prayer. He dedicates a chapter to each of them. He concludes his book by discussing the seven souls, which are the commanding, the blaming, the inspired, the tranquil, the pleased, the accepted, and the perfect. 114
