The Islamic sects and the murji'ah in Ali al-Fahri's work "Talkhis al-Bayan"

Research, analysis and analysis regarding the history of sects are of great value in human life. Research on the History of Islamic Sects provides deep meaning to life by determining people's faith and practice. So much so that people attach a different meaning to their existence through sects, both religious and practical, and they continue their lives according to the ideology that these sects add to them. In this sense, the history of the sects, their content, and the window from which they look at life have a significant value for believers. As in Islam, sectarian differences have occurred in religions such as Judaism and Christianity. Examining sects together with their variations in other religions such as Judaism and Christianity has led to an increase in works on this subject and paved the way for works such as milel-nihal. The number of works in this field is quite high. When we look at the works of the early Islamic sects, we see that these are subjective works. However, objective works were produced later on. In his early works, claims were made about the bias of the sect he was a member of, and heavy accusations were made against the sect(s) he was against. Ali el-Fahri's work titled Talkhis al-Bayan Dhikr Firaq Ahl al-Adyan, which we have discussed, also falls into the category of subjective works. In our study, we will introduce the sects discussed in this work, analyze how they are discussed, and try to present the contributions of this work to our field. The study focuses on reflecting the author's views as they are, with an explanatory approach. In the conclusion section, a comprehensive review was made to evaluate the importance of sects in the historical and social context and, in particular, the importance of the work we discussed in the academic literature.
