Question:
This questioner says: Is it possible for a beginner student to read the books of Imam al-Muhasibi?

Answer:
Al-Muhasibi; they did not speak well of him, and Imam Ahmad boycotted him because he was a Sufi. He had knowledge of Sufism, so we do not advise reading them. Yes.

May Allah reward you
