Ibn Taymiyya Quotes
In this world there is a paradise, whoever does not enter it will not enter the Paradise of the Hereafter.
Ibn al-Qayyim, Muhammad. Al-Wabil al-Sayyib min al-Kalim al-Tayyib. Dar al-Hadith, 1999, p. 69.
Taqī ad-Dīn Aḥmad ibn Abd al-Halim ibn Abd al-Salam al-Numayri al-Ḥarrānī, known simply Ibn Taymiyyah (ابن تيمية), was a controversial Islamic jurist scholar, muhaddith, theologian, judge, philosopher, economist, and polymath. He is known for his diplomatic involvement with the Ilkhanid ruler Ghazan Khan and for his involvement at the Battle of Marj al-Saffar which ended the Mongol invasions of the Levant. A member of the Hanbali school, Ibn Taymiyyah's iconoclastic views on widely accepted Sunni doctrines of his time such as the veneration of saints and the visitation to their tomb-shrines made him unpopular with many scholars and rulers of the time, under whose orders he was imprisoned several times.
