Asharism

Asharism is a school of Islamic theology that emphasizes God's omnipotence and the importance of human free will within divine guidance. Founded by the scholar Al-Ash'ari in the 10th century, it seeks to balance God's justice with human accountability, using reason alongside scripture. Asharism asserts that God's attributes are unique and beyond human understanding, advocating for a rational and preserved interpretation of Islamic teachings. It remains influential in many Sunni Muslim communities, providing a theological framework that emphasizes God's omnipresence, mercy, and the significance of faith and divine trust.
