Heartfelt Advice to a Friend – Imam Ibn Al-Qayyim Al-Jawziyyah

In this short yet substantial tract, Imam Ibn al-Qayyim al-Jawziyyah pens a message of heartfelt advice and appreciation to a friend of his by the name of 'Ala' al-Din, invoking Allah's kindness, guidance, and blessing upon him.

Within this translation of Risalat Ibn al-Qayyim ila Ahadi Ikhwanihi, the author explains the finer points of having a need in seeking Allah's guidance in all of our affairs and the means to persist upon the Straight Path. The risalah includes six weighty elements by which a Muslim can achieve happiness and pleasure, and through which righteousness can be perfected.

The knowledge-based content reflects Ibn al-Qayyim's attention to detail, presented in an easy-to-understand manner. Though modeled as sincere advice to his friend, it is of wider benefit to all who read it.
