The Food for the heart

Ibn Taymiyyāh says:

Thus, it has become clear that the heart was only created for the dhikr (remembrance) of Allah, glorified be He. For this reason, some of the early wise men from the people of al-Shām, I think it was Sulaymān al-Khawwāṣ,

we are overstimulated and we don’t even notice. netflix while eating. reels in the bathroom. music while cooking. podcasts on walks. we consume by default, not by intention. you keep filling every gap, then wonder why you feel foggy and unmotivated. boredom and silence are the real growth drivers. they give you space to think and create. that’s when solutions show up for problems that have been stuck for months. leave some room

Sidrat al-Muntaha, the lote tree of the utmost boundary, beyond which none can pass. The Prophet (S) described it as being covered in "colours which he didn't know & none of the creation of God could describe its beauty"

“If you see a man belittling the people of hadith, know that he is a heretic.” ~ Abu Zurʿah al-Razi (d. 264 AH)

Ibn Taymiyyah was once asked: "Where are the people of truth."

He replied: "Either under the earth, in prison or in the battlefield."

[كتاب الايمان ص ٤٤]

[Abdelbarr Essaâdi @AbdelbarrMalki1]

After mentioning the doubts and confusion philosophers and Kalamists have, Ibn Taymiyyah said:

"If this is the state of their arguments, then what greater nonsense, and futility could there be?! How could such people deem themselves fit to criticize Ahl al-Hadith wa Sunnah—
