Abd al-Razzaq Al-Badr

Abd al-Razzaq ibn Abd al-Muhsin Al-Badr (born 22 Dhu al-Qa'da 1382 AH / 16 April 1963 CE) is a Saudi scholar born in al-Zulfi, a professor in the Aqidah department of the Islamic University of Madinah who also teaches in the Prophet's Mosque, son of the scholar Abd al-Muhsin Al-Abbad, and author of many works on the names of God, supplication and remembrance. ^{1 2} His YouTube channel (@sheikhalbadr) carries his lessons; the English article recorded 226,000 subscribers for it at a June 2026 update, a dated platform figure. ^{3 4}

Al-Badr took all his degrees at the Islamic University of Madinah: a bachelor's in sharia, a master's in creed with a thesis on Abd al-Rahman al-Sa'di's efforts in establishing the creed, and a doctorate in creed with a thesis on the increase and decrease of faith and the ruling on the exception clause in it. ¹ He studied under his father Abd al-Muhsin Al-Abbad, and under Abd Allah al-Ghunayman and Ali Nasir Faqihi, as the article reports from Midad and Al-Shamela. ¹ He teaches in the university's Aqidah department and in the Prophet's Mosque, and his lessons and sermons are published through his official website al-badr.net and his YouTube channel. ^{1 4}

His works include Fiqh of the Most Beautiful Names of God, Fiqh of Supplications and Remembrances, Hajj and the Refinement of Souls, A Study of Malik's Report on Istiwa, Al-Hawqala: Its Meaning, Virtues and Doctrinal Significance, Studies in the Everlasting Good Deeds, Al-Tuhfa al-Saniyya (a commentary on Ibn Abi Dawud's Ha'iyya), Remembrances of Purity and Prayer, A Commentary on Abu Dawud's Hashiya, Hadiths on Reforming Hearts, Hadiths on Faith, Hadiths on Character, Tadhkirat al-Mu'tasi (a commentary on Abd al-Ghani al-Maqdisi's creed) and a commentary on The Six Principles. ¹

This section reports what the sources attribute to him; the museum adopts no verdict. The Arabic article describes him, in its own wording, as one of the notables of Ahl al-Sunna wa'l-Jama'a, and assigns him — on a single citation to the Mosannefat directory — to the Hanbali school and the Athari creed; the English article gives denomination Sunni and jurisprudence Hanbali. ^{1 3} This record registers no school for him, because the attribution rests on infoboxes of one source family, while Wikidata records only his religion as Islam. ²
