From the preface of the book:
“THIS IS THE ADVICE of the esteemed scholar, the shaykh, imām, and mujtahid, Muwaffaq ad-Dīn Abū Muḥammad ʿAbdullāh ibn Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Qudāmah al-Maqdisī al-Jammāʿīlī then ad- Dimashqī al-Ḥanbalī. His advice is extraordinarily succinct, and revolves around the actions of the heart, in which sincerity settles, and by which taqwā becomes established.
“If people wish to apply it, they will find great good in it and by it they can put that which is clearly crooked straight, hurry to right actions, avoid those things that render actions corrupt, be watchful of their behaviour in word and deed, reflect on the outcomes of their actions and be at peace with what Allāh loves and which pleases Him.”
