The Life of Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak: The Scholar of the East and the Scholar of the West

A first of its kind biography about this humble and rare personality from Khurasan; a jurist, a warrior, a scholar, a muhaddith, a poet, a righteous worshipper, and the leader of the pious. In this unique book, various aspects of Abdullah ibn al-Mubarak's life are explored from what history has recorded, including lessons to be taken from his very actions, all pooled and translated from classical and authentic Arabic sources.

May Allah bless the remarkable legend about whom 'Abdullah ibn 'Ayaash said,

“There is none like ‘Abdullãh ibn al-Mubãrak on the face of this earth, nor do I know of a single good characteristic created by Allãh, except that He has put it in ‘Abdullãh ibn al-Mubãrak.
