This book is comprised of a compendium of motivational

essays that are intended to stimulate the mind and stir the

heart toward sensing the magnificence of the Almighty

Lord, Allah (Glory be to Him, the Most High), as also

to experience the beauty and wisdom of Islam, and to

imbibe the principles and precepts of life taught by

Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him).

The style of these discourses is generally intended to

educate both Muslims and non-Muslims on the spirit

and values of Islam, and on recognizing humanity and

human attributes within oneself, as well as to share

Islamic ethics, morality, philosophies, and principles

so as to promote the understanding of Islam and to

illuminate the purpose of life. Each essay is motivated by

several particularly insightful verses from the Qur'an and

traditions and sayings of the Prophet, which in themselves

are enlightening to read and reflect upon.
