iving by the values of Islam is possible by applying the
commands and advice given in the Qur'an to every aspect of
life. This and the practice of the Sunnah is the only way that
people can achieve the best and happiest results in this world and the
next. Our Lord tells us in the Qur'an that a person can attain the best kind
of life by doing right actions:
Anyone who acts rightly, male or female, being a believer, We will
give them a good life and We will recompense them according to
the best of what they did. (Surat an-Nahl: 97)
This book examines the things people do and the events they
encounter almost every day of their lives from the point of view of a
Muslim who lives according to the teachings of the Qur'an. It will show
how a Muslim should react to the various daily events and situations with
which he or she is faced. The purpose of the book is two-fold: to present
an idea of the good life that can be had thanks to the teaching of the
Qur'an, and to invite all people into the superior life offered by this
teaching. It is certain that only the teaching of the Qur'an makes it
possible for people to live every hour of every day, and every moment of
their lives in a Paradise-like, peaceful environment far from the stress,
worry and anxiety of this world.
