Remarkable! This text has made its way to our hands in order to use the timeless widsom of this Grand Master. Easy to read, heavy to reflect upon, the sickness of the heart, concerning greed and envy, ect.. have all been carefully mastered into a text that is easy to grasp.

Some may say he has gone off the far end, perhaps reaching deeply for ultimate abstainance from this life, perhaps, he may, but the lessons he teaches can be taken in 2 ways. 1) That the people of his time may have been so "off", Islamicly speaking towards implementing Sharia, that he needed to write this text in order to level out the boundries. Therefore, his society may have been to one extreme of leaving Sharia. and this book is from another extreme implementing Sharia to the upmost respect.

This is an incredible book. This book does a great job in decribing the science behind building good character and advancing your spiritual state. This is a must read for anyone looking to advance themselves spirtually.
