The book “The Four Principles” by Shaykh Muhammed bin ‘Abdul-Wahhab, what is meant with principles?
Are they the Kulliyyah (comprehensive principles) which have many subsidiary issues fall under it?
Answer:
Principle here comes with the meaning as foundation.
The four principles are foundations which branch out into many subjects.
Shaykh Sālih Al-Fawzān, may Allah preserve him, said in his explanation of “The Four Principles“:
“Qawāid is the plural of Qāidah, and a Qāidah (principle) is: the foundation which branches out into many subjects or many branches.”
