{ "item_title" : "A Reminder for the Wise Regarding our Master Shaykh al-Tijani being the seal of the saints", "item_author" : [" Ibrahim Dimson", "Shaykh Ibrahim Niasse "], "item_description" : "A Reminder for the Wise is one of Shaykh al-Islām Al-Ḥājj Ibrāhīm Niasse's most important works on the spiritual rank of Shaykh Aḥmad al-Tijānī and the meaning of the Seal of Muḥammadan Sainthood.Written in response to questions and disputes surrounding the concept of Khatm al-Wilāyah-the Seal of Sainthood-this concise yet far-reaching treatise presents a carefully structured account of sainthood, spiritual inheritance, and the hierarchy of the realized friends of Allah. Shaykh Ibrāhīm distinguishes between general and specifically Muḥammadan sainthood, clarifies the different meanings attached to the term Seal, and explains why Shaykh Aḥmad al-Tijānī occupies a singular place within the spiritual history of Islam.Drawing upon the writings of such authorities as al-Ḥakīm al-Tirmidhī, Shaykh al-Akbar Muḥyī al-Dīn ibn ʿArabī, ʿAbd al-Wahhāb al-Shaʿrānī, Shaykh Sīdī al-Mukhtār al-Kuntī, Al-Ḥājj ʿUmar al-Fūtī, and the early companions of Shaykh al-Tijānī, the author brings together metaphysical exposition, historical testimony, transmitted accounts, and devotional poetry. Apparent contradictions among earlier Sufi masters are examined and reconciled, while the life, lineage, knowledge, spiritual distinctions, and teachings of Shaykh Aḥmad al-Tijānī are presented as evidence of his unique station.The work is not merely a defense of the Tijaniyyah. It is an invitation to understand the sacred reality of wilāyah, the continuity of Muḥammadan spiritual inheritance, and the proper conduct of seekers toward the saints of Allah. Shaykh Ibrāhīm writes with the authority of a scholar, the insight of a realized gnostic, and the devotion of a disciple whose purpose is to strengthen certainty, dispel confusion, and preserve a profound teaching of the Islamic spiritual tradition.Published here in English for a new generation of readers, A Reminder for the Wise is essential reading for students of Sufism, the Tijaniyyah, Shaykh Aḥmad al-Tijānī, Shaykh Ibrāhīm Niasse, and the classical Islamic understanding of sainthood.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers2.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/9/79/899/688/9798996887569_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "60.99", "online_price" : "60.99", "our_price" : "60.99", "club_price" : "60.99", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
