الْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ نَحْمَدُهُ وَنَسْتَعِينُهُ وَنَسْتَغْفِرُهُ، وَنَعُوذُ بِاللَّهِ مِنْ شُرُورِ أَنْفُسِنَا وَمِنْ سَيِّئَاتِ أَعْمَالِنَا، مَنْ يَهْدِهِ اللَّهُ فَلَا مُضِلَّ لَهُ وَمَنْ يُضْلِلْ فَلَا هَادِيَ لَهُ، وَأَشْهَدُ أَنْ لَا إِلَهَ إِلَّا اللَّهُ وَحْدَهُ لَا شَرِيكَ لَهُ، وَأَشْهَدُ أَنَّ مُحَمَّدًا عَبْدُهُ وَرَسُولُهُ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَعَلَى آلِهِ وَأَصْحَابِهِ وَمَنْ تَبِعَهُمْ بِإِحْسَانٍ وَسَلَّمَ تَسْلِيمًا كَثِيرًا.

All praise is due to Allah. We praise Him, seek His help, and ask for His forgiveness. We seek refuge in Allah from the evil within ourselves and from our wicked deeds. Whoever Allah guides, none can lead astray, and whoever He leaves to stray, none can guide. I bear witness that there is no god but Allah alone, with no partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and messenger. May Allah send prayers and abundant peace upon him, his family, his companions, and those who follow them in righteousness.

أَمَّا بَعْدُ فَهَذَا شَرْحٌ يَسِيرٌ عَلَى كِتَابِ شَيْخِ الْإِسْلَامِ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْوَهَّابِ الْمُسَمَّى «كَشْفُ الشُّبُهَاتِ» وَالَّذِي أَوْرَدَ فِيهِ الْمُؤَلِّفُ بِضْعَ عَشْرَةَ شُبْهَةً لِأَهْلِ الشِّرْكِ وَأَجَابَ عَنْهَا بِأَحْسَنِ إِجَابَةٍ مُدَعَّمَةٍ بِالدَّلِيلِ مَعَ سُهُولَةِ الْمَعْنَى وَوُضُوحِ الْعِبَارَةِ،

This is a concise commentary on the book 'Kashf al-Shubuhat' by Sheikh al-Islam Muhammad ibn Abd al-Wahhab. In it, the author addresses over a dozen misconceptions held by polytheists, providing excellent rebuttals supported by evidence, all while maintaining clarity and simplicity in his expression.

أَسْأَلُ اللَّهَ تَعَالَى أَنْ يُثِيبَهُ عَلَى ذَلِكَ وَأَنْ يَنْفَعَ بِذَلِكَ الْعِبَادَ إِنَّهُ عَلَى كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ.

I ask Allah the Exalted to reward him for this work and to make it a source of benefit for His servants, for He has power over all things.
