Book Review: al-Farq bayna an-Naseehah wat-Tajreeh (The Difference between Advising and Disparaging)

By ash-Shaykh Dr. Saalih bin Fawzaan al-Fawzaan (hafithahullah) Member of the Major Scholars and Permanent Committee for Legal Rulings in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Pages: 39
Publisher: Kanooz Ishbiliyyah

I just ordered this book from Rimarket.com and received it last Friday. I read it in one sitting on Saturday. This is based off of a lecture that Dr. Saalih gave. It was transcribed into book form and made as a series entitled Silsalat-ul-Muhaadharaat-il-‘Ilmiyyah as book number 5. There is a foreword by the brother who transcribed it and Dr. Saalih’s permission for the lecture to be published as a booklet. The lecture itself consists of the Doctor’s introduction in which he goes into some preparatory matters before going into the topic. Then he goes into the linguistic and technical meaning of Naseehah. Then he goes into the difference between Naseehah and Tajreeh. Then he ends the lecture with the six categories of Tajreeh along with their explanation. A list of questions and answers is given at the end and then the booklet concludes with an index of the subjects. This is a very beneficial booklet to own and one that is a must for us to read. May Allah reward Dr. Saalih, the transcriber, the publishers, and all of those selling the book.
