Here is a collection of over 800 excerpts that unveil the wisdom and beauty in physical intimacy as manifest throughout the divine revelation, the hadith and sunnah, the most cited works of eminent scholars, leading commentaries from the four legal schools, and in the descriptions of blessings to come. The original Arabic text of each excerpt is accompanied by a straightforward translation. This compilation, while only a glimpse into a vast legacy of knowledge, is nonetheless the most comprehensive guide available to English readers on this vital subject.
