About
Sheikh ul Islam Ibn Taymiyah
Shaykh al-Islam Taqi ud-Din Abu'l-Abbas Ahmad Ibn al-Halim ibn
Abd al-Salam Ibn Taymiyah al-Hanbali was born in , 661 AH (1263 AC)
in Haran, which is now in Eastern Turkey, near the border of northern
Iraq..
His family had long been renowned for its learning , among his teachers,
was Shams ud-Din Al-Maqdisi, first Hanbali Chief Justice of Syria
following the reform of the judiciary by Baibars. The number of Ibn
Taimiyah's teachers exceeds two hundred. Ibn Taimiyah was barely
seventeen, when Qadi Al-Maqdisi authorized him to issue Fatwa (legal
verdict). Qadi remembered with pride that it was he who had first
permitted an intelligent and learned man like Ibn Taimiyah to give Fatwa.
At the same age, he started delivering lectures. When he was thirty, he
was offered the office of Chief Justice, but refused, as he could not
persuade himself to follow the limitations imposed by the authorities.
Imam Ibn Taimiyah's education was essentially that of a Hanbali theologian
and jurisconsult. But to his knowledge of early and classical Hanbalism,
he added not only that of the other schools of jurisprudence but also that
of other literature.
He had an extensive knowledge of Quran, Sunnah, Greek philosophy,
Islamic history, and religious books of others, as is evident from the
variety of the books he wrote. <More>
Diseases of the Hearts & Their Cures
By Shaykhul-Islaam Ibn Taymiyyah
Compiled by Ibrahim bin Abdullah al-Hazimi from the Fatwawa of Ibn
Taymiyah
ISBN: 0 9536476 3 3
Translator: Abu Rumaysah
Pages: 144
Binding: Paperback
Published by Daar us-Sunnah Publishers UK
Know O beloved reader that it is most important to spend one’s time and energy in treating the heart, and hastening to correct and purify if from sickness and all sins. This is due to the heart occupying a great and lofty position in Islaam, for it is the place to which the Lord looks and the storehouse for tawheed, faith and sincerity.
Actions are distinguished, one from the other, with respect to their excellence in the Sight of Allaah in accordance with the condition of the heart, not by their number or form, but rather due to the strength of the caller, his truthfulness, his sincerity and the extent to which he prefer Allaah over himself… Al-Haafidh ibn Hajr al-Asqalaanee, may Allaah have mercy upon him and provide us with his knowledge, said: “The heart has been singled out for this because it is the leader of the body, and through the purification of the leader the subjects become purified, and with his corruption they become corrupted. So if you, Observant of Allaah, wish to cure your hear then it is upon you to be truthful with regards to seeking refuge with Allaah and putting your trust in Him, to pray a great deal of supererogatory prayers, to perform the actions of obedience to Allaah frequently, to pray the night prayer while the people are sleeping, and to treat your heart by making it continuously stick to the remembrances and by befriending only the righteous… and to frequently recite the Qur’aan. And Allaah will indeed allow all of this to be preserved by him.” Taken from the Compiler’s Foreword

Al-‘Ubudiyyah:
Being a True Slave to Allah
By Imam Ibn Taymiyyah
Translated by
Nasiruddin al-Khattab
Paperback, 144 pages ISBN 1 897940 88 2, Taha Publishers, London UK
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

The Madinan Way
By Ibn Taymiyya's
"The Soundness of the Basic Premises of the School of the People
of Madina"
Translated by Aisha Bewley
Paperback 108 Pages, Published by Bookwork UK
Ref: 98b Price: £4.50
This small treatise of Ibn Taymiyya (661/1263-728/1328),
the extremely influential Hanbali jurist, has an importance belied by its
size since it is, in fact, an investigation into the origin and nature of
the Prophetic Sunna. In it he discusses the value of the consensus of the
people of Madina and its standing as evidence. He also deals with the
lawful and unlawful, food and drink, usury, acts of worship and other
matters, and compares the school of the people of Madina regarding all
these things with the other schools, making it clear that the Madinan
school is the soundest of all of them and the closest to the Sunna and the
practice of the Salaf.
Although usually associated with hadith-based legal
reasoning, in this work Ibn Taymiyya demonstrates the unquestionable
authority of the practice of the people of Madina, showing how it remained
indisputably the authentic expression of the Sunna of the Prophet, may
Allah bless him and grant him peace, during the first three generations of
Islam when it was definitively recorded by Imam Malik ibn Anas. The
conclusion he reaches is that: "In the time of the Companions, the
Followers and their Followers, their school was the soundest of the
schools of the people in all the lands of Islam, east and west, both in
respect of its fundamental principles and its secondary rulings." |
