Description :


Majlis fi Nafy al-Tashbih is a concise work relating to the Oneness of Allah, subhanahu wa ta'ala, related from the doctrine of the people of hadith, written by the prolific scholar and 'Master of Hadith' Imam ibn Asakir al-Dimishqi, rahmatullahi ta'ala 'alayhi. [d.571h].


Ibn Asakir safeguards the essence of the Almighty from being similar to other beings, and from Him being free from any occurance of hardship both in occurance and attribute, from place, dimension and from view.






About Ibn Asakir :


He is `Ali ibn al-Hasan ibn Hibat Allah ibn `Abd Allah, Thiqat al-Din, Abu al-Qasim, known as Ibn `Asakir al-Dimashqi al-Shafi`i al-Ash`ari (499-571), the Imam of hadith masters in his time and historian of Damascus.



Ibn al-Najjar said : "He is the imam of hadith scholars in his time and the chief leader in memorisation, meticulous verification, thorough knowledge in the sciences of hadith, trustworthiness, nobility, and excellence in writing and beautiful recitation. He is the seal of this science."


After 533h he sat teaching hadith in a corner of the Umayyad mosque in Damascus, then in the Dar al-Sunna school (subsequenty renamed Dar al-Hadith) built for him by al-Malik al-`Adil Nur al-Din Mahmud ibn Zanki. He shunned all kinds of material possessions and turned down the office of head preacher, concentrating on teaching, writing, and worshipping. His most famous student was the sultan Salah al-Din al-Ayyubi, who attended his funeral behind the imam al-Qutb al-Naysaburi.



Ibn `Asakir authored over a hundred books and epistles and narrated under five hundred hadith lessons.
