This four-page essay on the difference between pre-theoretical belief and theoretical imagination was written by the prominent Shafi'i theologian Muhammad al-Amidi (died 1233 [631 AH]).

It is from the Bašagić Collection of Islamic Manuscripts in the University Library of Bratislava, Slovakia, which was inscribed on the UNESCO Memory of the World register in 1997.
