\n Abu Ali al-Ash\u2019ari has narrated from al-Hassan ibn Ali al-Kufi from \u2018Abbas ibn \u2018Amir from Aban ibn \u2018Uthman from Fudayl ibn Yasar from Abu Ja\u2019far, recipient of divine supreme covenant, who has said the following: \u2018Abu Ja\u2019far \u2011asws , recipient of divine supreme covenant, has said: \u2018Islam is based on five principles.

These are: Salat (Prayer), Al-Zakat (charity), Soam (Fasting), Hajj (Pilgram) and Al-Wilayah (Submission to Allah -azwj and His -azwj Representatives \u2013 the Prophet -saww and Imams -asws ). The call to none of the other principles has been as emphatic as it has been to Al-Wilayah. People accepted the other four but they left aside this i.e. Al-Wilayah.

\u2019 [3] \n The next search is to find the word \u2018\u0623\u064f\u0635\u064f\u0648\u0644\u0650 \u062f\u0650\u064a\u0646\u0650\u2019, there are two Ahadith where Usool e Deen is mentioned, see Ahadith in Appendix II. \u00a0It covers from the getting cleaned prior to offering salat to the issues of shias\u2019s faith.

In both Ahadith the importance of the dissimulation is emphasised (Taqeeya) as if \u2018Usool e Deen\u2019 are made to be known to others (Amma \u2013 the general Muslims), they will harm shias (e.g., the followers of Wilayah of Ahl Al-Bayt -asws ). Hence the scope of the Usool e Deen is extremely broad and includes all aspects of acts of worshiping Allah -azwj (Salat, Soam, Zakat, Hajj and Wilayah.

\n Conclusion: \n The scope of the Usool e Deen from Ahadith is very broad and it embraces all of the man-made \u2018Usool e Deen and Faroo e Deen\u2019 put together by the scholars of Usool (Principle of Jurisprudence). \n A detailed Hadith on Usool e Deen by Imam Ali Al-Reza -asws when Ma Al-Ma\u2019mun Al-Rasheed insisted that Usool e Deen are to be definced and written down, further verifies that Usool e Deen encopass the whole of the religion.

In the Hadith, Imam Ali Al-Reza -asws has beautifully and concisely described the Usool e Deen in the absence of the conditions of Taqeeya. The Hadith is presented elsewhere in a dedicated article on \u2018Usool e Deen\u2019.
