Welcome to a journey of inner transformation.
In a fast-paced world filled with modern distractions and internal chaos, how do we master our impulses and cultivate a truly upright character? Risalat al-Akhlaq with Sheikh Sagal is a chapter-by-chapter exploration of one of Islamic history’s most influential handbooks on ethics: Risalat al-Akhlaq (also known as Al-Akhlaq al-Adudiyya), authored by the brilliant 14th-century theologian Imam Adud al-Din al-Iji.
For centuries, this concise masterpiece served as a foundational textbook in traditional seminaries, teaching students how to align human psychology with spiritual excellence.
In each episode of this series, Sheikh Sagal breaks down the text chapter by chapter and makes it comprehensive for us today. Together, we will unpack how Imam al-Iji beautifully synthesizes classical logic with the Qur'an and Sunnah to map out the human soul. You will discover how to balance your intellect, desires, and emotions to unlock the four cardinal virtues: Wisdom, Temperance, Courage, and Justice.
This podcast bridges the gap between centuries-old scholarship and modern daily life. Whether you are looking to improve your self-discipline, heal your relationships, or deepen your connection with Allah, this show offers a practical, actionable blueprint for purifying the heart (Tazkiyat al-Nafs).
