Inna lillaahi wa inna ilayhi raji'oon.

Assalamu Alykum Warahmatullah.
The man who was described as: Ibnul Qayyim of recent times has passed away earlier today.
In addition to being the president of the International Islamic Fiqh Council, Shaikh Bakr bin Abdullah Abu Zaid RA was a member of the permanent fatwa committee in Saudi Arabia.
His vast collection of writings covered almost all aspects of religion, from Aqeedah, Quraan and Hadeeth … to Adab, Usool and linguistics.
He even has a book on the Islamic etiquettes of using the phone! And another on scholars who never married!
Allah SWT has granted him a rare ability of eloquent composition and strong Bayaan.
One of his greatest virtues was that he was among the first to begin the fight against the recent Fitna of Irjaa'.
He was trusted by great scholars of AhlulHadeeth, including Shaikhs Bin Baaz and bin Utheimeen.
All we can say: Inna Lillahi Wa Innaa Iillahi Raji'oon.
May Allah SWT grant Abu Abdillah forgiveness and a place better than his place in this life.
Inna lillaahi wa inna ilayhi raji'oon.
