Author: Abu Muhammad ‘Abd’Allah ibn Abi Jamrah al-Maliki al-Andalusi, translation and explanatory notes: ‘Allamah Zafar Ahmad ‘Uthmani, publisher: Idara Islamiyyat (Lahore), 2 Volumes, 656 pages.
‘Allamah Muhammad ibn Abi Jamrah (may Allah shower His mercy upon him) is from amongst the renowned scholars and sufis of seventh century (Hijri) Spain who adhered to the Sunnah. He authored a commentary of Sahih al-Bukhari, entitled, Bahjat al-Nufus,1 which was written in a completely unique and rare style. In this commentary, the ‘Allamah has derived rulings of tasawwuf and ihsan in a wonderfully in-depth manner, from which it is made clear that tasawwuf is not a separate entity to the Shari‘ah, but is an important part of the religion (din), and is essentially derived from the Qur’an and Sunnah. The subtleties, inner dimensions, delicate academic points of the hadiths and, in particular, the guidance given to the one traversing the path of tasawwuf, in this book by ‘Allamah Ibn Abi Jamrah (may Allah shower His mercy upon him) are so great and valuable that at times during the read the soul becomes ecstatic. The beauty of it is that these subtleties and inner dimensions are not expounded by the author with any formality or special preparation but are derived from the hadiths in a spontaneous and informal manner.
In this era, Allah
had chosen Hakim al-Ummah Mawlana Ashraf ‘Ali Thanwi (may Allah sanctify his
secret) for the tajdid (revival and reformation) of all the fields of religion,
especially the science of tasawwuf and spiritual nurturing. Due to the
specialities of ‘Allamah Ibn Abi Jamrah’s (may Allah shower His mercy upon him)
book, Hakim al-Ummah Mawlana Ashraf ‘Ali Thanwi was greatly fond it.2
Therefore, it was his desire that it be rendered to Urdu. The good fortune of
fulfilling this desire had been decreed by Allah to be the lot of ‘Allamah
Zafar Ahmad ‘Uthmani (may Allah sanctify his secret). Accordingly, he
translated this book, naming it Rahmat al-Quddus, and added his own explanatory
notes to the translation throughout, which comprise valuable academic and
reformatory discussions.3 It is difficult to find an equal in this era to the
rank in knowledge and virtue that Allah had granted ‘Allamah Zafar Ahmad
‘Uthmani (may Allah sanctify his secret), and this book truly reflects this.
After being
published in India once, this book had been out of print. Idara Islamiyyat has
now done a great favour to those who are thirsty for knowledge by diligently
publishing it once again.4 It is hoped that it will be valued by the people of
knowledge and tasawwuf.
