Being
A True
Slave Of Allah (SWT)
Or
Ibn Taymiyyah
Language: English | Format: PDF | Pages: 82 | Size: 1 MB
Part Two of the Towards Islamic Psychology series, (Part 1: Patience and
Gratitude), is a planned series of books which, drawing on the Islamic
scholarly heritage, will offer practical advice rooted in the Qur’an and
Sunnah, to address many psychological woes of our modern age. Shaykh
Ibn Taymiyyah defines the concept of worship in Islam and explains that
to be a true “slave of Allah” is a status of both virtue and nobility.
The title “slave of Allaah” is one of great honor which Allah bestowed
upon the best of creation, Muhammad (SAW). Ibn Taymiyyah highlights the
prevalent traps which people fall into, when becoming enslaved by, or
allowing their hearts to become attached to worldly objects. The
emphasis is on servitude to Allah which is adorned with the true love we
hold for Him in our hearts — a matter of central importance for every
Muslim.
Highly Recommended for the young blooded
who Want to Run before they can Walk and even the Old timers ‘Who
sometimes are so comfortable Walking that they have forgotten that
there is sometimes a need to run’ in the Path Towards Allah.
