Publisher's Synopsis
Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya's Profound Reflection on Love
Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya offers a profound exploration of love from both a spiritual and psychological perspective, clarifying its rightful form and the ways it can go astray. He opens with an emphasis on the purest and most beneficial form of love-love for Allah, the Exalted-and highlights its central place in the life of faith. He then carefully examines how love can become misdirected, crossing into the realm of forbidden passions and turning into a spiritual trial that tests the integrity of the soul.
