Death of Ibn al-Qayyim al-Jawziyyah

Shams ad-Din Ibn al-Qayyim al-Jawziyyah, the most prominent student of Ibn Taymiyyah, died in Damascus. His prolific writings on spirituality (Madarij as-Salikin), theology, jurisprudence, and Prophetic medicine made him one of the most widely read scholars in the Sunni tradition. He beautifully combined scholarly rigor with spiritual depth.
