Description
Description
An exceptional historical document finally accessible in French
The book "En 704", published by Éditions At-Tawîl, presents three historical correspondences written by Ibn Taymiyya and two other great scholars of his time. These unpublished letters are gathered around a central theme: the position of the people of knowledge towards the doctrines of the controversial Sufi Ibn 'Arabî.
Three major letters, three voices for the truth
-
First correspondence (704H)
This is the report of a gathering held in Damascus between Sheikh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyya and several scholars. Their common objective: shedding light on the statements and ideas attributed to Ibn 'Arabî, in a spirit of searching for the truth, without controversy or passion. -
Second correspondence
Addressed to Qoutb Ad-Dîn, the steward of the Syrian army, Ibn Taymiyya revisits the same meeting, frankly recalling his sincere motivations: clarifying beliefs, avoiding divisions, and preserving unity around the revealed truth. -
Third letter: testimony of Chaykh 'Imâd Ad-Dîn Ibn Chaykh al-Hazzâmiyyîn
Present at this gathering, this scholar writes a letter addressed to Ibn Taymiyya's students. He records a valuable spiritual and methodological advice, guiding students in their journey between knowledge, sincerity, and firmness.
A lesson in method, balance, and uprightness
Beyond doctrinal content, this book highlights the method of scholars in criticism, the defense of the foundations of belief (ʿaqîda), and the respect for debate principles: listening, intellectual honesty, and priority given to evidence from the Quran and Sunnah.
A useful work for any student of religious science
