Wilhehn Spitta in the body of his Zur Geschichte Abu'l-Hasan al-Aś‘ari's (Leipzig, 1876) published the text (pp. 138–40) and translation (pp. 101–4) of a brief but important tract by al-Ash‘arī on the uncreatedness of faith: Mas'ala fi 'l-īmān. (This treatise is recorded in C. Brockelmann, GAL, I, 195, as Risālat al-īmān; presumably it is the same as the Kitāb al-īmān mentioned in Suppl., I, 346.) Spitta's edition, which is in general excellent, was based on a Cairo manuscript, believed until now to be unique.
