All Praise is for Allah, the Most High. Prayers and peace be upon Muhammad, his
family, his Companions and all those who continue in their way until the Day of
gathering.
Many a man has led his soul into destruction by that which he covets. Desiring
the riches of this world, recognition and authority amongst the people it was
a trial for the nations of the past and many of us relentlessly chase after it
today. We hope that this valuable book highlights the evil consequences of
craving after wealth and status and how that can corrupt the Deen of the Muslim.
We pray that this realization causes our brothers and sisters to race one
another in hastening towards forgiveness from Allaah, seeking the best provision
in the Hereafter aameen.
This is the English translation of the book Sharh Hadeeth Maa Dhi`baan Jaa`Iaan..
(Explanation of the Hadeeth: Two Hungry Wolves
) by the esteemed scholar of
Ahlus-Sunnah wal Jamaaah, Imaam al-Haafidh Ibn Rajab al-Hanbalee (d.795h).
Many this fine work provide beneficial and though provoking information for the
reader and may it be a treasure for us On the Day when neither wealth nor sons
will benefit (one) except he who comes before Allaah with a sound heart.
