Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : Your Eminence, to what extent is the attribution of the book *Al-Ruh* to Imam Ibn al-Qayyim (may Allah have mercy on him) authentic? And if the attribution is authentic, did he author it before studying under Shaykh al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, or after that? May Allah reward you with good.
The Shaykh : I know nothing about this, but Shaykh Bakr Abu Zayd mentioned that its attribution to him is authentic. Perhaps it was before he became well-versed in knowledge, because it contains things he relied upon that are not sound evidence.
