Being a timely translation, its message reflects the challenge of the human condition that continues to divert mankind with the blinding effect of this transient and material world – and brings back the real focus on mankind’s purpose and responsibility on earth. In ‘Fada’il al-Dhikr’, Ibn Jawzi wrote that one of the Salaf said: “O son of Adam! You need your share in this life, but need your share in the Hereafter even more. If you (only) took care of your share in this life, then you will lose your share in the Hereafter and are soon bound to lose your share in this life too. However, if you took care of your share in the Hereafter, you will also win your full share in this life with ease.” The author has extracted from an array of topics what will jolt the hearts and moisten the eyes, while strengthening the resolve to return to Allah and aspire for loftier goals to succeed in this life and the next. And there is no might or power, except with Allah.
A classical work that clarifies the praiseworthy qualities that the believer should strive to possess & the reprehensible characteristics from which the believer should flee.
