However, the number of the high quality savants schooled in our blessed religion bears a fovourable comparison to that of the Israelite Prophets and the thousands of books written by them have introduced and taught Islam to the entire world. The correct Islamic knowledge consists of the teachings of Ahl as-sunnat.

With a view to protecting our Muslim brothers and Muslims’ children against a misguiding and altogether different acquisition in the name of learning Islam by reading the venom-outpouring books and periodicals that are being published in rapid succession and which worm their way into the public’s attention and demand owing to their sequinned verbosity, we have deemed it essential to reproduce and republish a book which Suleymân bin Jezâ’ compiled from books written by great Islamic scholars in the Hanafî Madhhab and wrote with the title O Son in 960 [1552 A.D.]. There is yet another valuable book published under the same title, Eyyuhelveled (O Son), and which was written by the Hujjet-ul-islâm Imâm Ghazâlî ‘rahima-hullâhu ta’âlâ’ (450 [1058 – 3 – A.D.], Ghazâl, Tus (Mashhad), Iran–505 (1111), the same place). The latter was translated by Mustafâ ’Alî Efendi ‘rahima-hullâhu ta’âlâ’ and was entitled Tuhfat-us-sulahâ. Moreover, Hâdimî ‘rahima-hullâhu ta’âlâ’ wrote a commentary to the latter. An English version of Imâm Ghazâlî’s book Eyyuhelveled occupies the final pages of Documents of the Right Word, one of our publications. During the reproduction of Hadrat Suleymân bin Jezâ’s work we have added bracketed passages borrowed from other books or important notes. We entreat Allâhu ta’âlâ to bless people who attain the fortune of reading this valuable book to benefit from the pure souls of those great people whose names are mentioned in it.

Upon reading this book of ours, our Iranian brothers will agree with the decision taken by the Shiite scholars, become Sunnî Muslims, and attain happiness. Gratitude be to Allâhu ta’âlâ, next to none of the recent Iranian learners has abandoned the Sunnî way. We observe with gratitude, for instance, that the Persian book Kimyâ-i-Sa’âdat, written by Imâm-i-Ghazâlî, a Sunnî scholar, was reprinted in a most splendid form in Tehran in 1964, and the younger generation in Iran are being informed about the statements made by hundreds of Sunnî scholars, thus being impressed by their superior merits.

The very day Shiites free themselves from the Hurûfîs deceit, realize the way shown by their own scholars, and cooperate with the Sunnîs in spreading Islam over the world, the Wahhabîs will join them, Muslims will be in unity, they will certainly resume their past grandeur and superiority, they will once again shed a light on humanity and guide others to civilization, and thus the whole world will attain happiness. Then all people will know that serving Islam means serving humanity.
