good

This is by far a very well written book. It gives you all the details on how to be a student of knowledge. Once you begin reading this book you will become very impressed by the writing style of the author. It's a definite must have for anyone with interest in learning our deen.

The first step to acquiring knowledge and learning the etiquettes of seeking knowledge. Masha-Allah you can read through this book in one sitting Insha-Allah. Like most books it goes through issues that you would not expect a book like this to go through such as how your dress effects your studying etc. These types of books help clear misconceptions and help point out flaws in yourself that maybe you haven't given a second thought about before.

As salamu alaikum wa rahmatullahi wa barakatuh brothers and sisters- Alhumdulillah, this book is fantastic. This was the first book I read before getting deeper into Islamic studies and research. I found it very, very helpful. This is a definite 'must-have.' It goes into how to be humble, how to take notes, how to talk to a sheikh, how to memorize, and a lot more. The book gives very good information, but it doesn't get so in depth that you will lose concentration, get bored, and put the book down. The book is short but concise, giving you exactly what you need to have the basis to be successful in Islamic studies inshaAllah. I, very highly recommend this book to all brothers and sisters who are beginners to intermediate level in Islamic studies who want to build a solid foundation on HOW to seek knowledge before getting too deep into Islamic studies. Don't go into Islamic studies blindly [without this book]. Get this book. You will like it inshaAllah. -Hope this helps inshaAllah :]

Excellent primer for people who wish to begin studying anything. No matter your specialization or interests, this book is a guide for all seekers. A fantastic starting point. I found it better to read over a period of time because applying all its advices is not feasible in a sitting.
