Islamic theology, known as Ilahiyat, is the study of the nature of God (Allah) and the principles of the Islamic faith. It explores key concepts such as the oneness of God, prophethood, and the afterlife. Scholars in this field analyze the teachings of the Qur'an and the Hadith, which are the sayings and actions of the Prophet Muhammad, to understand and interpret the beliefs and practices of Muslims.
Theology in Islam is often divided into different branches, including Aqidah (creed) and Fiqh (jurisprudence). Aqidah focuses on the core beliefs of Islam, while Fiqh deals with the practical aspects of religious law
