Author:
Ibn al-Jawzi is Abu al-Faraj Abd al-Rahman ibn Abi al-Hasan Ali ibn Muhammad al-Qurashi al-Taymi al-Bakri. A Hanbali jurist, hadith scholar, historian, and theologian (510 AH/1116 AD - 12 Ramadan 597 AH), he was born and died in Baghdad. He enjoyed widespread fame and a prominent position in public speaking, preaching, and writing, and he also excelled in many sciences and arts. His lineage goes back to Muhammad ibn Abi Bakr al-Siddiq. He was known as Ibn al-Jawzi because of a walnut tree that once grew in his house in the town of Wasit. It was also said that he was named after "Fardat al-Jawz," the port of the Basra River.

❇️ Some reviews of the book "The History of Jerusalem" by Ibn al-Jawzi ❇️

▪️Source of reviews: www.goodreads.com/book/show/11396593▪️

- The first words I said to my sister after finishing it were, "May God grant us a visit to Al-Aqsa and prayer in Jerusalem." It's a small booklet that I read on my trip to Mecca, as if God had written it for me to strive to pray in the Holy Mosque and persist in fulfilling my wish. The booklet talks more about the virtues of Jerusalem than its history. Now I know why the people of Palestine are happy despite the occupation, as they have been singled out for this virtue. Whoever God wants good for, He will let them reside in Jerusalem. "Whoever dies in Jerusalem is as if they died in heaven." Is there anything greater than this? God has written for us a prayer there, granted victory to His worship there, and decreed humiliation for His Jewish enemies. The new information the book added to me was about the Dome of the Rock and that it is from Paradise. :").
Rasha Mubarak

- I read the electronic version of the book during a trip... It presents many hadiths that describe the greatness and sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque, which made me more eager to visit Al-Aqsa Mosque than before. However, due to the large number of hadiths I had never heard of before, and since I read the electronic version and had no way of verifying the authenticity of the hadiths during the trip, God willing, I will reread the book to benefit from it fully.

Sawsan

- New information about this blessed and honorable place. The book's flaw is that it contains evidence that confirms three main points, and there was some repetition of information, but I left with a sincere desire to visit Al-Aqsa Mosque... It's worth reading.
