Imam ‘Abdul-‘Aziz Ibn ‘Abdullah Ibn Baz | Salafi Centre Manchester

In this remarkable treatise by the virtuous Salafi Imam ‘Abdul-‘Aziz Ibn Baz (may Allah’s mercy be upon him) he tackles a pressing issue that is as evident as the midday sun within the Ummah: the factors contributing to our weakness and inability to stand firm against adversaries.

Throughout the treatise, the Imam emphasises the root causes of this weakness, primarily highlighting the lack of knowledge and its far-reaching consequences. He discusses the gravity of this affliction and its harmful impact on individuals, identifying ignorance as the core issue that undermines our collective strength in confronting challenges.

‘Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with him) said: “Indeed, we are a people whom Allah has honoured with Islam; thus, whenever we seek honour through other than it, Allah degrades us.”
