Matters of the Heart and Soul: The Refinement of Character (Book 1)

Ibn Al-Jawzi compiled the first book free from weak or fabricated Hadith, Ibn Qudamah summarised it further, and then Ibn Kathir added his invaluable comments. The Arabic book is in one volume, however the English version comprises of 4 separate books.

The first book covers the ethics of eating, marriage, and companionship, earning a living, traveling, enjoying the good, and staying away from sin and evil deeds, as well the rulings on music and singing. It ends with heartfelt advice from our righteous predecessors and illustrates the beautiful character of our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).

Anyone who adorns themself with this Islamic Character will indeed achieve nobility of the elite of Allah's creation, which is beloved to our Creator, Allah, the Most High. "O Muslim, adorn and beautify yourself with great morals and manners."
