The author said in the introduction, “I write this book to invite people to the religion of Allaah … I briefly explained herein the story of the creation of the Universe, the creation of man and how he was favoured by sending Messengers to him and situation of past religions. I afterwards made an introduction to Islam as per its meaning and pillars. So, whoever is looking for guidance will find its evidences therein, whoever is looking for salvation may find that I have explained the way to it in this book, whoever desires to follow the track of the Prophets, Messengers and righteous people will find their path herein while those who turn away from their way only befools themselves and take to the straying path. It is a matter of fact that adherents of each religion call others to it and believe that truth only abide in their religion … Thousands of those who embraced Islam have testified that they did not know real life until after they embraced Islam and that they did never tasted happiness except under the shade of Islam. Since it is a fact that every human being looks for happiness, peace of mind and truth, I prepare this work to help them achieve that."

This book explains in details about the purposes of the Hajj (pilgrimage). 

Explaining the Foundations of Faith (Sharh Usool Al Eemaan) by Shaykh Uthaymeen

To place the love of any human being ahead of the love of His Messenger, Prophet Muhammad, is to forfeit one’s faith altogether. The Prophet says: ‘None of you truly attains to faith unless I am dearer to him than his parents, children and all mankind’. [Related by al-Bukhari].
