The refinement of the book of the soul

The Imam the حافظ Abu Abdullah Shams al-Din Muhammad bin Abi Bakr, known as Ibn Qayyim al-Jawziyya, is among the highest ranks of scholars in the quality of classification and the abundance of authorship. Among his works: the book "Al-Ruh" which is a book containing twenty-one issues about the soul and related matters. And the work in the Tadhhib (refinement) was carried out according to a methodology summarized as follows: - Confirming the words of the author without alteration or addition. - Maintaining the order of the original texts without precedence or delay. - Limiting to the core idea intended and deleting tangential matters, while ensuring the context appears in a coherent manner. - Conciseness in presenting opinions, evidence, discussions, definitions, and similar matters. - Confirming all the titles of chapters and sections, even if many parts were omitted. - Placing a list at the end of the Tadhhib with benefits and selected phrases that appeared in the original but were not included in the Tadhhib due to their unsuitability to the context or because they appeared in a text that did not meet the conditions of the Tadhhib.
