minhaj as-sunnah ibn taymiyyah

[adnan42]

assalamualaikum
is english translation of book minhaj as-sunnah by sheikh ibn taymiyyah available?

[Moin]

No.. Its very huge for that. There are summary by Al-Dhahabi and Abdullah Al-Ghumaiman but they are not translated as well. Instead of starting with such huge books like Minhaj muslims should start with a small book of arabic grammer.

[Riqaaz]

SalamuAlaikum I would like to know about whether Imam Ibne Taymiya ascribe the following to Hazrat Umar(r.a) in his Minhaj al Sunnah volume 6 page 202 as mentioned by shiapen:


فلما كان يوم الخميس هم أن يكتب كتابا فقال عمر ماله أهجر فشك عمر هل هذا القول من هجر الحمي أو هو مما يقول على عادته فخاف عمر أن يكون من هجر الحمى

“On Thursday he (the Holy Prophet) determined to write a will. But, Umar said: ‘What is wrong with him, is he delirious?’ Umar had doubts if that statement (of the Holy Prophet) was a rave due to illness, or was a regular statement. Thus Umar feared that the Holy Prophet might have been raving due to fever”.

[Muhammad Tazin]

There are discussion about that matter in Minhaj As Sunnah,pg 19-20(6th part) and later refutation and clear explanation.

[Abu Jasim Al-Salafi]

My advice to you and to all who want to read this great encyclopedia, learn arabic.
