Brief

In this book, Sheikh 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 Allah” is one of great honor which Allah bestowed upon the best of creation, Muhammad, may Allah bless him and grant him peace. 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.
