Who was Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah? Why is he so hated by the people of Innovations and loved by the people of sunnah? What did he believe? Was he against the 4 Imams and other scholars? Who were his scholars and students? How did he seek knowledge? Many people accuse Ibn Taymiyyah of likening Allah to the creation is this true? Why was he imprisoned? How did he spend his whole life in the service of Islam? And much more... This is a lecture not to be missed on one of the greatest revivers of Quran and Sunnah the world has ever seen. ________________________ Shaykh al-Islam Ahmad ibn 'Abd al-Haleem ibn Taymiyah is regarded as one of the prominent mujaddids (renewers and revivers) of Islam. He was born in 661 AH and died in 728 AH (may Allah have mercy on him). If the efforts of a mujaddid bear fruit in his own time and generation, the efforts of Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyah began to bear fruit in his own time and have continued to do so until the present, affecting scholars and seekers of knowledge and Islamic groups that belong to Ahl al-Sunnah wa'l-Jama'ah. Scholars still refer to his books to refute the enemies of Islam among the Jews and Christians and sects that claim to belong to Islam such as the Raafidis, Huloolis and Jahamis, and innovated sects such as the Ash'aris and Murji'is. His achievements in the fields of fiqh, hadeeth, tafseer and sulook (ways of drawing close to Allah) are too well known. His books and writings bear witness to that and he does not need anyone like us to praise him, rather his knowledge and fiqh are extant and bear witness that no one can deny except one who is ignorant or stubborn. ___________________________ ABOUT THE SPEAKER - Abu usamah was born in New Jersey in 1964.
