Description from the publisher:
“The heart’s obtainment of knowledge is like the body’s obtainment of nourishment from food. So just as the bodies feel the effects of food and drink, the hearts feel the effects of that which they are fed from the types of knowledge and sciences, which is their food and drink.”
“There isn’t any doubt about the reality that the pleasure of ‘ilm is the greatest pleasure, and it is the only pleasure that remains after death and benefits a person in the hereafter. It is the pleasure of having knowledge of Allah and acting thereupon, and this is the belief in Allah.”
-Shaykhul-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah
