Overview

"In modern times, especially for those of us born into Muslim families, religion becomes a ritualistic hobby. We follow customs, perform acts and recite prayers without understanding the signifcance of what we are doing. We attend religious gatherings but what we hear does not translate into strengthening our faith or changing our behaviour. Practicing this kind of 'superfcial' Islam means we fail to receive the full blessings of Islam and are more likely to neglect our faith and move further away from Allah in times of difficulty or when we are busy with worldly matters. Furthermore, if we do not practice the faith with understanding, what example are we setting others, especially non-Muslims? What will we be able to teach our children? Te purpose of this book is to provide you the means of changing your thoughts and behaviour regarding some of the most fundamental aspects of our religion. Each chapter introduces a topic using the Qur'an and Hadith followed by practical advice on how to act upon this; recording your daily/weekly/monthly progress in the space provided. Sincere engagement with this process will help you develop lifelong habits of practicing your faith understanding why you are doing what you are doing. Each chapter is independent of the others therefore the book does not need to be read in any specifc order. However, I would advise you to focus on one chapter at a time, and try not to do too much too soon since you are likely to overburden yourself and disengage with the process. Remember the words of the Prophet (peace be upon him): ""Take up good deeds only as much as you are able, for the best deeds are those done regularly even if they are few."" Use this book with the firm intention to better yourself in the hope of pleasing and drawing closer to Allah and His Prophet (peace be upon him). Certainly, Allah will help you: ""He who draws close to Me a hand's span, I will draw close to him an arm's length. And whoever draws near Me an arm's length, I will draw near him a fathom's length. And whoever comes to Me walking, I will go to him running..."""
