Spiritual Journey To Allah and His Messenger by Ibn ul-Qayyim

The Spiritual Journey To Allah & His Messenger (Revised 2nd Edition)
Translation of Ar-Risalat ut-Tabukiyyah
The Message From Tabuk by Ibn ul-Qayyim
Translated & Commentary by Muhammad Mustafa al-Jibaly

This book is instrumental in explaining the true Methodology of adherence to Allaah’s Book, His Messenger’s [Islamic phrases=”Shallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam”]H[/Islamic] Sunnah, and the Guidance of the sahabah [Islamic phrases=”Radhiyallahu ‘anhum”]M[/Islamic]. True to his well-known insightful approach in delving into the texts, Ibn ul-Qayyim starts by explaining the qualities of righteousness and piety that are required from everyone, both in practice and in da’wah.

He then proceeds to describe the true meaning of migration to Allaah [Islamic phrases=”Subhanahu wa Ta’ala”]E[/Islamic] and His Messenger [Islamic phrases=”Shallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam”]H[/Islamic], discussing in the process full submission to the Messenger’s [Islamic phrases=”Shallallahu ‘alaihi wa Sallam”]H[/Islamic] Sunnah as an integral requirement of eemaan. He then goes on to deliberate on the situations of true misery and true happiness.

Toward the end, he stipulates the requirements of the Journey of Migration, presenting along the way some very important insights for sound comprehension of the Qur’aan. In addition to its valuable methodological coverage, this book is very touching in its address to the soul and heart. This is a characteristic that you rarely find in writings of other authors. May Allaah [Islamic phrases=”Subhanahu wa Ta’ala”]E[/Islamic] reward Ibn ul-Qayyim profusely.
