Bismillahirrahmanirrahim
All praise is for Allah. We praise
Him and seek His assistance. We ask for His forgiveness and take refuge in Him
from the evil within ourselves and from the evil of our deeds. Tonight, I’m
attending the talk about the purification of the soul. The speaker is Muhammad
El Arbi from USA. This is the second meeting for this topic. I’m always coming
late because I have to do something else until isya prayers.
Subhanalloh, hearing this talk even
just a few minute is always touching my heart. The famous quotation ‘What comes
from the heart goes to the heart’ is true.
In this note, I just want to summarize what I got from the speaker and the
handbook. The book of the purification of the soul is compiled from the works
of Ibn Rajab al-Hanbali, Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya, and Abu Hamid al-Ghazali.
