About The Book
This book, part of the How to Live as a Muslim series, makes an effort to peel away the layers of what we think we know about Islam to reveal what Islam says about itself, and to explain the pillars of the Islamic faith. It discusses Islam's worldview, how we fit into it, what God expects of us.
It explains why the Prophets were sent to guide mankind to the truth, why the Qur'an is the best guide for this journey, and how and why God equipped us to make this journey. Also examined in detail are the Resurrection, and the Afterlife, Divine Destiny, eschatology and the invisible realm of existence.
