About this ebook

It has been said that true bankruptcy is a full belly and an empty soul. Religion must be a matter of conscious choice. Not a matter of accidental birth. Because on it depends our peace of mind, how we view the world, our relationships with others, what choices we make and the results of those choices in this life and the Hereafter. What we choose to believe or reject must be done thoughtfully after due reflection and investigation because our present and our everlasting future both depend on it. It can't be left to incidental following of traditions and customs we don't even know the origin or meanings of just because our parents or elders used to do them. One's spiritual journey is as important if not more, as one's journey in this life in terms of one's career or other criteria and so deserves an equal mindshare and effort.I wish you all the best in your quest for knowledge and pray that you are guided to the truth because in the end it is essential that we know what the truth is and that we believe it and prepare for it. It is the nature of reality that it does not depend on belief for its existence and that one day it has to be faced whether we chose to believe in it or not.

Ratings and reviews

It was informative in places but very subjective in others. The author only seems to explore his interpretation and dismisses all other practices. It seems as if he is having a personal rant at times as opposed to sincerely trying to educate the reader.

Helped me out alot, I want to know more. "there is only one god" and peace be with you all.

I enjoyed reading this book very informative and helped me have a better understanding about something I knew very little about God wants us to love everyone evenly even if there beliefs are different the Muslim world has my respect
