| Publisher Description: With everything going on around us, it is difficult to focus on what truly matters. We are often overwhelmed in our lives; so focused on the details that we forget the big picture. It is important to take a step back and take a look at the master plan. There is more to life than the little annoyances, the daily grind, and even the temporary moments of happiness we may experience. This book is divided into six parts. The intention of each part is to help us take a step back and refocus our energy and attention on a Muslim's true-life purpose, thus helping us implement our Islamic faith accurately. The first part is, "The Purpose of Life." When we do things, we have to do them with right intention. We must fully understand why we are here and what Allah SWT wants from us. Understanding the purpose of life helps us to have balanced lives and to have patience towards the less desirable moments in our lives, keeping in mind our priorities and duties assigned to us by Allah SWT. The Second part is, "Islamic Principles." We are here to navigate life, but as any wayfarer on a journey knows, one must have a compass to know which direction to go. This is where Islam comes in. In Islam we find a simple and universal religion. If we impalement the simple principles of Islam and the example of our Prophet Muhammad PBUH and fulfill our roles as Muslims than our presence on this earth becomes momentous. Islam becomes a blessing for us and for those around us.The third part is, "Islamic Way of Life." Surely navigating this life is difficult but Allah SWT has blessed us in giving us direction. The codes that Allah SWT has given us through his messenger Muhammad PBUH, the ways he asks us to behave, the dangers he asks us to keep away from are all for our own benefit. They are given to us in order to help us navigate through this life so that we can arrive soundly at our final destination, Jannah Insha'Allah.The fourth part is, "Our Journey Together." On this journey called life we must remember that we are not islands. We need each other, as by nature we are social beings. In fact, it is why isolation is considered a form of torture. As we go on life's journey we have companions that are a part of the sweetness of this life. With this great blessing from Allah SWT comes great responsibility towards these companions.The fifth part is, "Our Hereafter." Allah SWT has blessed us with being able to see parts of the future as He as described them to us. He has warned us of what is to come so that we can have a stronger motivation now to do better. This section is meant as a motivation so that we can remember that our eternal abode is what deserves the most of our attention.Finally, the sixth part is, "Timeless Stories of Inspiration." There are people that have gone through this journey of life before us. We can learn from their stories and we can use the stories as a source of inspiration.It is the intention that these sections help us understand that there is a bigger picture in life. And what is by far the most beautiful thing of all is that this master plan of our life is created by the Most Generous, the Most Merciful, and the All-Knowing Allah SWT. |
