The fundamental tenets of the Ash'aris that contravene the methodology of the Salaf were previously mentioned in no. 52076. It is impractical to detail this within the scope of a fatwa. The inquirer can refer to specialized resources such as: "Al-Firaq al-Kalamiyyah" by Dr. Nasser al-Aql, "Mawqif Ibn Taymiyyah min al-Asha'irah" by Dr. Abd al-Rahman al-Mahmoud, "Manhaj Ahl al- wal Jama'ah wa Manhaj al-Asha'irah fi Tawhidillah" by Dr. Khalid bin Abd al-Latif, "Al-Asha'irah fi Mizan Ahl al-Sunnah" by Sheikh Faisal al-Jasim, and among the concise studies: "Manhaj al-Asha'irah fi al-Aqidah" by Dr. Safar al-Hawali.
