❇️ Some Reviews of the Book Sea of Tears by Ibn al-Jawzi ❇️
▪️ Source of Reviews: www.goodreads.com/book/show/7234622▪️
- It contains sermons that soften hearts and bring tears to eyes. The book is not to be read once, but rather periodically, as it is the best provision for ascetics. I always return to it periodically to appreciate its benefits, perhaps my heart will soften from the sermons of the ancients.
Abd Al Rahman
- In this book, Ibn al-Jawzi, may God have mercy on him, combined sermons, stories of righteous ascetics, and eloquent language. This is how spirituality works... I recommend it to everyone. May God benefit us with what we read and teach us what is beneficial for us.

- One of the most beautiful books on spirituality that touches every heart that loves God and desires to purify itself.
Nora Mohamad
- The book "Sea of Tears" by Ibn al-Jawzi on preaching. In over thirty chapters, the book includes stories of preaching from the lives of righteous people and those who performed miracles, with preaching words interspersed throughout the chapters. These words soften the heart, shake the body, and bring tears to the eyes, even to the point of overflowing with a sea of tears.
