The journey of the soul after death according to Ibn al-Qayyin:

This book is important because it deals with an area about which most people know very little, yet which is of vital interest to all human beings.

It outlines what happens to the human soul from the moment of death until the arrival of Judgment Day. It describes the process of death itself, the exact relationship of the soul to the body, the states of the soul after it leaves this world, and the nature of the relationship that is established between death and those who are still alive.

Layla Mabrouk, a famous contemporary Egyptian scholar, has brilliantly abridged a classic work by the great medieval scholar Ibn al-Qayyim al-Jawziyya who was an outstanding student of Ibn Taymiyyah.
