Riyad as-Salihin

Book 11

The Book of Jihad

كتاب الجهاد

This section centers on striving in the cause of Allah and the rewards tied to sincere effort and sacrifice. Its chapters also turn to the treatment of slaves, urging kindness and the merit of freeing them, and to steadfast worship in times of trial. It closes with honest dealing in trade. The shared theme is sincerity and uprightness when faith is tested, whether on the battlefield, in one's household, or in the marketplace.
