Description
About This Book:
This is a very important work from the pen of Shaykhul-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, one of the most distinguished scholars in the history of Islām, where the author tackles the vital issue of refraining from emulating the non-Muslims. His discourse looks at the key areas of belief, worship, feasts, jurisprudence and moral virtues making it a reference point for Muslims to help them live a non-conformist Islamic life in all aspects.
A Brief but Constructive and Exhaustive Analytical Report
In this book, the author is keen at a detailing of the hazards of practicing things that are in a reverse to Islamic culture. His argumentation is grounded in both critical thinking process, and the Islams sacred books such as Qur’an and Sunna so that the reader is not only given theoretical knowledge, but also the practical advice. Before proceeding, Ibn Taymiyyah spends time on historical pattern where he uses the precedent of ‘Salaf’, the early generations of Muslims who had demonstrated the correct course of action supported by the Islamic shariah.
Clarity in Complexity
Despite the fact that the topics under discussion are complex, readers do not face any difficulty in understanding issues under discussion due to scholarly strictness of Ibn Taymiyyah. He approaches each part of the subject matter whether it is about religious practices, manners, or ethics in a topical manner that enables the reader to get a good grasp of it. This work is not only an explanation of the conduct required in adherence to Islamic law but also a review on the impact of the introduction of foreign systems on Muslim societies.
