Ibn Hajar’s Mukhtasar

Packed with over 50 sessions

Ibn Hajar’s Mukhtasar al-Targhib wa’l-Tarhib is a one-volume abridgement of al-Hafiz al-Mundhiri’s five-volume opus discussing the spectrum of Islamic religious life from the perspective of hadith. The hadith in this collection either encourage an action (Targhib) or discourage an action (Tarhib) reflecting Al-Mundhiri’s use of two principles of spiritual development: hope and fear. In this course, Shaykh Muhammad Amin Kholwadia comments on selected chapters of ibn Hajar’s Mukhtasar, providing insights into Islamic psychology, spirituality, and theology derived entirely from prophetic teachings. Some of the chapters that will be commented upon include the chapters of knowledge, the sunnah, remembrance (dhikr), and others.
