Lumat al-Itiqad al-Hadi ila Sabil al-Rashad (Arabic: لمعة الاعتقاد الهادي إلى سبيل الرشاد), commonly known as Lumat al-Itiqad, is a 12th-century Islamic creed treatise written by the Hanbali scholar Ibn Qudama. It presents a concise summary of the essential topics of Islamic belief based on the traditional Sunni creed, later associated with the Salafi understanding. The book remains influential and is used as a textbook in Saudi Arabia for students in the first year of secondary education.
