Description of islamic Book
This beautiful classical work emphasizes husn al-dhann billah—having good thoughts of Allah. Ibn Abi Dunya compiles Qur’anic verses, authentic hadiths, and sayings of the Salaf that inspire believers to rely upon Allah, remain hopeful during hardship, and avoid despair. The book strengthens faith by reminding readers of Allah’s mercy, generosity, and wisdom.
From Author:
Allāh, the Most High, Said: “If My slaves ask you about Me, I am near. I answer
the call of the caller when he calls on Me. They should therefore respond to Me and
believe in Me so that hopefully they will be rightly guided.” [al-Baqrarah (2):186]
The Prophet (peace and blessing be upon him) said: “Allāh, the Exalted, says: ‘I am as My servant thinks of Me.’” Al-Bukhārī , #7405 and Muslim, #2675.
Before you are two texts that we have placed into one book by Al-Hāfiẓ Abū Bakr Ibn
Abī Dunyā : ‘Having Good Thoughts of Allāh’ and ‘Having True Reliance on Allāh’.
These two great acts of worship of the heart are interlinked with each other, and
the author covers them quite comprehensively – which every sincere believer must
cultivate in their hearts.
Know that Allāh loves the believers, He wants goodness for them, but the believers must
place true reliance on Him alone and think positively of Him at all times. This work
will mend every broken heart, uplift many souls, and awaken every person wanting
goodness to proceed with love, reliance, care, and devotion to Allāh. You may be
struggling on your journey to Allāh or have begun to tread the path of salvation, or
you may already be on the caravan to the Hereafter – whatever the case, this text will
benefit you greatly. It is truly indispensable for every soul that craves salvation in this
life and the next.
