This collection of wisdoms from the works of Ibn Taymiyyah reflects the range of his penetrative insight and wisdom. It aims to recast his work, which is often mistakenly associated with Islamic fundamentalism, for a new generation of Muslims who are seeking a path through the challenges of the modern age.
With an emphasis upon literary concision each aphorism is pregnant with meaning, which is carefully explored in a commentary.

Elena Semenovahas quoted6 years ago
There is nothing about the Friends of God—the awliyā’—that outwardly distinguishes them from the rest of mankind with respect to the permissible. They do not wear anything specific and neither are they known to do anything specific with their hair … instead they are to be found amongst every category of the community of Muhammad (except the people of innovation and sin). They are found amongst the reciters of the Qur’an, the scholars, soldiers, traders, manufacturers and farmers
