Al-Sayf al-Saqil fi al-Radd 'ala Ibn Zafil (Arabic: السيف الصقيل في الرد على ابن زفيل, lit. 'The Burnished Sword in Refuting Ibn Zafil [derogatory name for Ibn al-Qayyim]'), is a theological book, written by the Shafi'i-Ash'ari scholar Taqi al-Din al-Subki (d. 756/1355), as a refutation against Ibn al-Qayyim's poem entitled al-Kafiya al-Shafiya fi al-Intisar lil-Firqa al-Najiya (Arabic: الكافية الشافية في الانتصار للفرقة الناجية, lit. 'The Sufficient and Healing [Poem] on the Victory of the Saved Sect'), known popularly as al-Qasida al-Nuniyya (Arabic: القصيدة النونية, lit. 'Ode Rhyming in the Letter Nun [N]'). Al-Subki considered the poem to be blasphemous due to its ideological practice of takfir (excommunication of other Muslims), and due to its theological deviations about the Divine Attributes, i.e., anthropomorphism and anthropopathism. Al-Subki purposely cited sections of the poem and also referred to Ibn Taymiyya. He strove to disqualify the derogatory designations used by Ibn al-Qayyim when he referred to the Ash'aris as Jahmiyya and Mu'attila, etc. Moreover, al-Subki explored several theological aspects concerning God's entity and His Attributes in terms of figurative interpretation (ta'wil) and also deals with eschatological issues. The book was re-edited and commented on by Hanafi-Maturidi scholar Muhammad Zahid al-Kawthari (d. 1371/1951), under the title of Tabdid al-Zalam al-Mukhim min Nuniyyat Ibn al-Qayyim (Arabic: تبديد الظلام المخيم من نونية ابن القيم). The Hanafi hadith scholar Murtada al-Zabidi (d. 1205/ 1791) — in the introduction to his book Ithaf al-Sada al-Muttaqin (commentary on Ihya' 'Ulum al-Din by al-Ghazali) — quoted at some length from the refutation written by al-Subki.
