He was half way through when I came to Riyadh in 1999. I strongly recommend the tapes, as the language is very difficult to understand]

الروح في الكلام على أرواح الأموات والأحياء
374 pages. 1412 3rd edition/ daar al-kutub al-ilmiyyah

the two books ?al-fawaa?id? and ?rawdah al-muhibeen wa nuzhat ul-mushtaqi? will be reviewed in the future, inshallaah, as I am presently compiling some points of benefit from them. But I will number them [79, 80 and 81] for the booklist file. [there are 2 versions of fawaaid]

Jazaak Allaahu Khayran for this great series of articles. We look forward to more additions to this series. You said: | quote: |
| 71-This book was explained by Muhammad khalil harraas. 2 volumes. 1406 1st editon daar al-kutub al-ilmiyyah titled sharh al-qaseedah an-nooniyyah. |
|
Can you please elaborate on this sharh, i.e. the depth of the sharh, does he discuss the grammar as well as masaa?il, etc.?
Also, has the sharh of ash-Shaykh Ibn ?Uthaymeen been transcribed and published? The audio tapes, 60 in total, are available from the website, but I haven?t seen a published version.
Also, you said: | quote: |
| [it is better to get the edited version by aboo ghudah] |
|
Why is that? I have seen his name all over many of the important works in uloom il-hadeeth, yet have held off purchasing them due to his reputation as a mu?attil and deviant who was heavily criticized by Shaykh Naasir. Jazaak Allaahu Khayran.

أما بعد:
your?re right about him, he is from the ahl ul-bida.
As for quoting him, I meant that you buy ibn al-qayyim?s book with his tahqeeq, as that version is most commonly referred back to by the scholars and the muhaqqiqeen, not that his input in the footnaotes is so valuable.
It is permissible, generally, to use the tahqeeqs and compilations of the ahl ul-bidah and even the unbelievers [mainly the orientalists] when they have served the sunnah. The unbelievers have published many books like the tabaqaat ibn sad and ibn hibbaan?s ?mashaheer ulamaa al-amsaar? which the scholars use and even the famous hadeeth concordance done by them over 50 years ago is possessed by all salafi scholars. Shaikh rabee quotes, for example, from zaahid al-kawtharee?s edited books like ?shuroot al-aimmah al-khamsah and others.
If anyone has more detail, please inform us here. Allah knows best.
As for the sharh of nooniyyah; it is not a detailed sharh. He explains a group of verses at time bringing at times an ayah or a hadeeth. He gives the meaning with mention to usool. In the one volume version the editor explains the words.
Ibn uthaimeen?s sharh [do you mean aqeedah safaariniyyah on the other post] has been published as mentioned.

Jazaak Allaahu Khayran for the response. I was actually referring to 'Uthaymeen's sharh on the Nooniyyah, which is more of a t'aleeq, quite similar to what you described Harraass' as being.
About Abu Ghudah: I only fear that others would see the name in my library and come to false conclusions about him. Perhaps the solution is to put a explanatory piece of paper on the inside cover for clarification.
Abu Ghudah also did Lisaan al-Meezaan and adh-Dhahabee's Mawqidhah - his prints are the only ones that I can find. Another individual like him is Shu'ayb al-Arnaa'oot, who, despite his known status as a deviant, has done many important books for Mu'assassat ar-Risaalah. Apparently he has done taqeeq of the entire Musnad in over 40 volumes, Allaahu A'lam how accurate it is.

Here are some lines from an-Nooniyyah that are mentioned quite often by Shaykh Saalih Aal ash-Shaykh in his lectures. The point of presenting them here is to give everyone an appreciation of how excellent and deep this work actually is. So the Imaam, the Hujjah, Shams ud-Deen Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyyah said:
والجهل داء قاتل وشفاؤه
أمران في التركيب متفقان
نص من القرآن أو من سنة
وطبيب ذاك العالم الرباني
والعلم أقسام ثلاث ما لها
من رابع والحق ذو تبيان
علم بأوصاف الإلـه وفعله
وكذلك الأسماء للديان
والأمر والنهي الذي هو دينه
وجزاؤه يوم المعاد الثاني
والكل في القرآن والسنن التي
جاءت عن المبعوث بالفرقان
والله ما قال امرؤ متحذلق
بسواهما إلا من الهذيان
This traslates roughly to:
And ignorance is a deadly sickness and its cure is
Two things which have equal status in combination
A text from the Qur'aan or from a Sunnah
And the doctor of that is the Scholar, the Rabbaanee
And knowledge is of three categories, it does not have
A fourth [category] and the truth is full of clarity
Knowledge of the attributes of Allaah and His Actions
And likewise the Names of the Lord
And the orders and prohibitions which are His Religion
And its reward on the day of the second meeting
And all of it is in the Qur'aan and Sunnah which
Came by way of the one sent with the Criterion
By Allaah, an observant one does not speak
With anything besides this expect with delirium
It is difficult to translate things like this, but nevertheless, it gives a good idea of how gifted (as Saalih al-Fawzaan explained) Ibn Qayyim was from a shar'ee standpoint and an adabee (arts, language, etc.) standpoint. |

Some other explanations of the Nooniyyah:
(1) Done by Shaykh Ahmad Bin Ibraaheem Bin 'Eesaa an-Najdee. I saw it in the bookstore, published by al-Maktab al-Islaamee in 2 volumes. Content-wise it looks nice, but not the print which was not done by hand and not a computer. Perhaps this is an indication that it's not popular enough to warrant a modern printing?
(2) There is apparently a full explanation of an-Nooniyyah by Ibn Sa'dee, called Tawdeeh ul-Kaafiyat us-Shaafiyah. It is different than the one you mentioned above. I haven't seen it, but it has been mentioned in several biographies of Ibn Qayyim.
And the tapes for Shaykh al-Fawzaan, like you alluded to, are excellent and very useful considering the complexity of the language and even the issues discussed. They are available at alfuzan.net and total 64 tapes. Also, the student reads the qaseedah quite nicely, may Allaah reward him. |

bismillaah ir-rahmaan nir-raheem
..and also the book mentioned by al-akh abu abdul-azeez
84-tawdeeh al-kaafiyyah ash-shaafiyah
287 pages. 1420/1st edition/adwaa as-salaf
it is actually a very brief explanation of the meanings of the poetry, not just on a specific chapter like his other sharh mentioned above. it is still excellent as he brings points of benefit not brought elsewhere.
