Abû Ishâq Al-Shîrâzî (d. 476/1083) was the famous Shafii scholar who grew up in the Shîraz region, and also it is understood from the works he left that he was a theologian of Ash'ari, who has an accumulation in the science of kalam. Being known as the first teacher of the Nezamiyeh Madrasa is one of its important qualities. Works of Shîrâzî on the knowledge of aqaid and kalam have survived until today. In this context, the works of Shîrâzî titled, al-Ishâra ilâ mazhabi ahli'l-haq and Aqîdatu’ssalaf about aqaid and kalam, are the books that have come until today. From these works, al- Ishâra ilâ mazhabi ahli'lhaq remind us classical aqaid texts. The principles of Islâmic belief are listed without paying attention to a certain order and are contented with the verses. The work named Aqîdatu’ssalaf, on the other hand, is less in volume, but it has the features of a kalam text. Because, starting with the subject of existence and explaining the basic concepts of the relationship between the world and Allah (swt), it is explained with rational attributes that the universe is in need of a creator. Ultimately, this study aims to introduce the works written by Shîrâzî, who has vast knowledge in different fields, on the knowledge of aqaid and kalam, as well as presenting his theological views together.
