<p><p>Every breath we take is taking us closer to death. The time we spend in this world is short, the time we are held in our graves is long, and the punishment for following our lowly desires is calamitous. Know that all the facets of mankind's disposition are for their benefit - either directly such as the desire for food, or indirectly by preventing harm, such as the capacity for anger. However, when these natural impulses are not moderated it culminates in harm. If the desire for food is excessive it leads to gluttony.</p></p>

Disturber of the Hearts

Daar-us-Sunnah

This is the fifth installment in the book series, of the illustrious and inimitable scholar of the sixth century Hijri, Imam Ibn al-Jawzi, may Allah have mercy upon him. The author penned this rare and deeply thought-provoking work with remarkable prose, accompanied with intense imagery designed to impart profound points of benefit harvested from the Qur'an and Sunnah. His lessons are uniquely arranged and gleam with exquisite expressions - designed to counsel the intellect to reflect, and the heart to reform. Being a timely translation, its message reflects the challenge of the human condition that continues to divert mankind with the blinding effect of this transient and material world - and brings back the real focus on mankind's purpose and responsibility on earth. In 'Fada'il al-Dhikr', Ibn Jawzi wrote that one of the Salaf said: "O son of Adam! You need your share in this life, but need your share in the Hereafter even more. If you (only) took care of your share in this life, then you will lose your share in the Hereafter and are soon bound to lose your share in this life too. However, if you took care of your share in the Hereafter, you will also win your full share in this life with ease." The author has extracted from an array of topics what will jolt the hearts and moisten the eyes, while strengthening the resolve to return to Allah and aspire for loftier goals to succeed in this life and the next. And there is no might or power, except with Allah.
