This heartfelt advice issued by ibn al Qayyim in his famous Nuniyyah is an exhortation to ahl-Sunnah about supporting the truth and the traits necessary for doing so, such as knowledge, certainty, courage, firmness, patience, tawkul, sincerty, genuineness, and many other important qualities.

Ibn Sa'di characterizes this advice as follows: "[Ibn Al Qayyim] commences a beneficial preface and comprehensive advice that every student of knowledge is in need of... It is befitting to being assigned precedence over [studing] the etiquette of the scholar and the student. This is because it entails pieces of advice needed by every person desiring felicity in both worlds."

Ibn 'Uthaymin describes the exceptionality of these golden bits of advice, saying: "In reality, these are guidelines. If while encountering  these bits of advice you recorded and took note of them, and then transferred them to a specified notebook, it would prove to be of a great benefit and reference source for you. That is because these are guidelines that you won't find anywhere except in this book."
