A Pearl of Wisdom by Ibn Taymiyyah

  • Posted by Omar Nagi
  • Date January 23, 2022

Ibn al-Qayyim said:

وقلت لشيخ الإسلام ابن تيمية رحمه الله تعالى يومًا: سُئِل بعض أهل العلم : أيما أنفع للعبد، التسبيح أو الاستغفار؟ فقال: إذا كان الثوب نقيًّا فالبخور وماء الورد أنفع له، وإن كان دَنِسًا فالصابون والماء الحارُّ أنفع له

I said to Shaykh al-Islām Ibn Taymmiyah: Some people of knowledge were asked: “What is more beneficial for a servant? Tasbīh or istighfār?” He said, “if the cloth is clean, then bukhūr (incense) and rose water is more beneficial, and if it is stained, then soap and hot water is more beneficial.”

Al-Wābil al-Ṣayyib 1/233
