A Journey into Islamic Morals

ABOUT THE BOOK

This book contains carefully selected stories from various authentic Islamic narrations, traditions and the Holy Quran to perfect the morals (Akhlaq) from ordinary to exemplary (Akhlaq e Hasanah). The book cover shows a train which is a symbolic message to the reader that beautiful morals can only be achieved if a human being is prepared to take up the journey along the tracks of Islamic teachings. With every story, there is a progression to some new station. The book is divided into three main sections; Longer stories that teach us morals to take us closer to God, short events and stories that carry deeper insights, and two stories from the Quran with explanations of important morals embedded in the verses. The author illustrates the significance of learning morals and outlines some thought-provoking lessons with each topic.
