Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya's Profound Reflection on Love

Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya offers a profound exploration of love from both a spiritual and psychological perspective, clarifying its rightful form and the ways it can go astray. He opens with an emphasis on the purest and most beneficial form of love—love for Allah, the Exalted—and highlights its central place in the life of faith. He then carefully examines how love can become misdirected, crossing into the realm of forbidden passions and turning into a spiritual trial that tests the integrity of the soul.
