Lastly, there occurs a detailed discussion about some of the most prevalent doubts upon Ahlus-Sunnah today, such as those from amongst the Mu?tazilah who deny the khabrul-aahaad (singular narration) and the Ashaa?irah and their likes who attribute tashbeeh (resembling Allaah to His creation) to Ahlus-Sunnah, whilst themselves performing ta?weel (figurative interpretation) and ta?teel (denial) of the Attributes of Allaah. The later part of the book is devoted to a biography of Imaam Muhammad Naasirud-Deen al-Albaanee, his discussion with the head of al- Azhar concerning the issues of taqleed and the madhaahib and an exposition of standard Ash?aree doubts upon Ahlus-Sunnah and their creed. In a time of severe confusion and corruption, this treatise is sure to be a beacon of enlightenment and a pure spring from which all those desiring true guidance can drink.
Those who wish to lead a spiritual life are in the minority. Thus it is incumbent for the seekers of Allah’s Pleasure to follow the correct path, lest their efforts are rendered worthless. This book will Insha’Allah aid the noble reader to awaken one’s soul to its true purpose and follow the straight path of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wa sallam), the best man to walk this earth, the finest of all examples and the most beloved to Allah whose spirituality, character, morals and ethics are unquestionable.
This work by Shaikhul Islam Ibn Taymiyyah is of great importance. It covers many topics in relation to Spirituality, Paths of Asceticism, Purifying the Self, Conditioning the Heart, Symptoms and Remedies, Beauty of Patience, Pardoning and Avoidance.
This is why in all of the works of the Shaikh, whether small or large, you will find quote after quote from the Religious texts. Muhammad Ibn Abdul-Wahhaab is a much maligned and misrepresented Scholar. His adversaries, in his time and after expended much effort in spreading misinformation regarding his belief and methodology. Some ascribe to him extremism; others ascribe to him deviation in belief and creed. All of this are falsehoods easily repelled by the legacy of authorship that he left behind, which clearly show that he was neither an extremist, nor a deviant, rather his works show that he was a true traditionalist in the Path of the Messenger of Allaah and his Companions.
