This is book three in our 30 Days Series. The importance of this subject has been indicated by many scholars of the Sunah past and present.The noble scholar Ibn al-Qayyim; may Allaah have mercy upon him; mentioned in his work ‘Madaarij as-Saalikeen';'The purification of the self or soul and its becoming rectified is dependent upon it being called to account and assessed. There is no purification or rectification nor any possibility of it being brought to a state of well-being except through calling oneself to account.al-Hasan al-Basree; may Allaah have mercy upon him; said; “As for the believer; then you do not see him; in other state except as one who steps forth and confronts himself says: Why did I make such and such statement? Why did I eat such and such food? Why did I go to such and such place? What do I do this thing? What did I engage in that matter? By Allaah; I will not fall into that again; and what is similar to theses statements. He takes himself to account looking at his shortcomings and deficiencies. So that he has the opportunity to try and fix; and rectify them'Yet this self rectification or purification of the soul must be done in the corect way and upon the correct foundation if it is to be successful. Ibn al-Qayyim; may Allaah have mercy upon him; also stated; 'The true purification of the soul and the self is directly connected to those messengers sent to humanity. Certainly Allaah sent messengers for the purpose of this purification of souls; and commanded them to pursue this; and brought it about through their hands; through efforts of calling; teaching; and guiding the people. They were sent to guide the various nations of the earth.....There is no path to truly cure and rectify the hearts except by means of their revealed paths and through their hands as messengers; and through purely surrendering and complying to their guidance.And we seek Allaah's assistance in our affairs'
