Ibn Hazm al-Andalusī:
Could anything more frightful be conceived, or could aught more painful enter into the thoughts of man, than that two lovers should break off their relations with reproaches, and then be overtaken by a sudden parting before reconciliation can be effected and the tangled knot of desertion be resolved?
Imagine their feelings as they stand to bid adieu to one another: all reproaches are forgotten in the face of this catastrophe, which has overwhelmed their faculties and banished sleep from their eyes.

While walking around the city of Tetouan, I found some interesting Andalusian related history.
This is a door of a house was built by an Andalusian family. It includes a courtyard and columns that was made in the 16th century.
The city of Tetouan and Chefchouen is known to have a strong impact of Andalusian history and culture. Many of the Andalusians came and settled down in these two cities after the fall of al-Andalus.

♦️One of the most biggest scholars to ever walk on this planet was a scholar from al-Andalus named Baqī ibn Makhlad.
Shaykh Sa’īd al-Kamalī narrates this beautiful story how this scholar helped spread Āhadīth to al-Andalus.
In this story, Imām ibn Makhlad al-Andalusī traveled from all the way to Baghdad from al-Andalus (and back) and pretended to be a beggar so he could learn from Imām Ahmed ibn Hanbal.
A map is provided to show the long distance it is to travel from al-Andalus to Baghdad.
Imām ibn Hazm al-Andalusī considered the Musnad of Baqī ibn Makhlad to be better than the Musnad of Ahmed. (Not all ‘Ulamā’ agreed to this statement)
📜Translation from: @beardedfella_____ , give him a follow for more translations from Shaykh Sa’īd al-Kamalī and others.

♦️SubhanAllāh!!
This map shows us how far the top Andalusian scholar Imām Baqī ibn Makhlad had to walk to collect āhadīth from Imām Ahmed ibn Hanbal.
From Europe to North Africa to Shām to Baghdad and then returning back!
In total, from going and returning:
Approximately 2,566 hours and 12,772 km!
The long and difficult journeys our ‘Ulamā has to take. May Allah have mercy on all the ‘Ulamā of Ahl as-Sunnah.

♦️On the topic of Hasad (Envy), from two major scholars of Tafsir who were from al-Andalus, Imām ibn Juzay and Imām Qurtubī.
On Tafsir of the Ayah:
وَمِن شَرِّ حَاسِدٍ إِذَا حَسَدَ
And from the evil of the envious when he envies. [Surah al-Falaq].
♦️Imām ibn Juzay al-Andalusī mentioned in his book, at-Tashīl li-Ulūm at-Tanzīl:
❝Some ‘Ulamā said:
al-Hasad (envy) is the first grave sin committed in disobedience of Allah, in the Heaven and the Earth.
As for the in Heaven:
Iblīs had envy for Adam.
And as for on the Earth:
Qābīl killed his brother Hābīl with the reason of having Hasad (envy).❞
♦️Imām Qurtubi mentioned in his book, al-Jāmi li-Ahkām al-Qurān:
❝Al-Hasad (envy) is the first sin committed in disobedience in the Heaven and the first sin committed in disobedience on the Earth.
Iblīs had Envy for Adam and Qābil had envy for Hābīl.❞
In many books of Tafsir you will find the ‘ulamā mentioning almost the same statements in their books.
Nowadays we find many want to read the advanced books of Tafsir before starting from the easier written Tafsir books.
The Tafsir from Imām Ibn Juzay is an excellent work that is suitable for beginners. You will find most of what he says in the more advanced book of Tafsir from Imām Qurtubī.
So start slow, no rushing for a beginner!

Ibn Hazm al-Andalusī:
I know a man who formed a passionate attachment, and lived in miserable squalor, although he had vast prospects, boundless opportunities and innumerable avenues to worldly success. Yet all that meant nothing to him; he preferred to stay with his beloved.

♦️Amazing book that mentions the families of Andalusian Scholars of Hadith.
Such as Ibn Hazm, Ibn Abd al-Barr, ibn Juzayy, etc.
There is even a chapter for Andalusian women who narrated Hadith.
Amongst them was Zaynab, the daughter of Imām ibn Abd al-Barr.
Lots of gems in this book.
