Description
About The Book
al-Tanbih is Imam Ibn Ibad al-Rondi's foundational commentary on the Hikam of Ibn Ata Allah al-Sakandari — historically the first major scholarly commentary on the matn, written within a century of the matn's composition. Together with Ibn Ajiba's later Iqaz al-Himam, the Tanbih is one of the two indispensable commentaries on the Hikam. Ibn Ibad's contribution is distinctive in its careful integration of the Hikam with the wider corpus of Shadhili teaching, in his attention to the relations among individual aphorisms, and in his sustained engagement with the philosophical questions that the Hikam raise.
About The Author
Imam Abu Abd Allah Muhammad Ibn Ibad al-Nafzi al-Rondi (733-792 AH / 1333-1390 CE) was an Andalusian-Moroccan Maliki scholar and Shadhili Sufi master who served as preacher at the Qarawiyyin in Fez. Beyond al-Tanbih, his celebrated Rasail (correspondence with his Sufi disciples) is one of the most beautiful collections of practical spiritual letters in classical Sunni literature.
عن الكتاب
"التنبيه" شرحُ الإمام ابن عباد النفزي الرندي على حكم ابن عطاء الله السكندري — تاريخياً أوّل الشروح العلمية الكبرى على المتن، كُتب في القرن الذي يَلي عَصْر المؤلف. ومع شرح ابن عجيبة "إيقاظ الهمم"، يَشْكُلان معاً الشرحَيْن الكلاسيكيَّيْن المعتمدَيْن على الحكم. وخصوصيّةُ ابن عباد هي الدمج المُحْكَم للحكم مع تراث الشاذلية الأَوسع، والانتباه إلى الروابط بين الحكم الفردية، والاشتغال المُطْرَد بالأسئلة الفلسفية التي تَطْرَحها الحكم.

About the author
Ibn Abbad al-Rundi: Imam Abu Abd Allah Muhammad Ibn Abbad al-Nafzi al-Rundi rahimahullah (733-792 AH / 1333-1390 CE) was an Andalusian-Moroccan Maliki scholar and master of the Shadhili Sufi path who served as preacher (khatib) at the Qarawiyyin mosque in Fez - among the most prestigious religious positions in the medieval Maghrib. His commentary al-Tanbih Sharh al-Hikam al-Ataiyya holds the distinction of being historically the first major scholarly commentary on the Hikam of Ibn Ata Allah al-Iskandari, composed in the generation following the author. Together with Ibn Ajiba's Iqaz al-Himam, it forms one of the two classical reference commentaries on the Hikam. A distinctive feature of Ibn Abbad's approach is his integration of the Hikam within the broader Shadhili heritage, his attention to the connections between individual aphorisms, and his sustained engagement with the philosophical questions the text raises. His celebrated Rasa'il - a collection of letters of spiritual guidance to his disciples - is regarded as one of the finest examples of practical Sufi correspondence in classical Sunni literature.
