Description :
'7 Steps to Spiritual Intelligence' tells us how to come closer to God in
seven steps: through genuine seeking of God, discipleship of a spiritual
director, learning and understanding spiritual intelligence, simplicity
and contentment, striving to practise, remembering God and praying to
Him, and self-inspection and self-control. Based upon the Teachings of Imam al-Ghazali,
May Allah be pleased with him. The author asks
:
***How do we develop a spiritual life?
***How do we change ourselves so that we can
live by the universal spiritual values of Islam?
Based on the teachings of classical scholars including Imam Ghazali,
may Allah be pleased with him, and upon years of practical experience in teaching young Muslims, Dr Musharraf Hussain has given us a contemporary and highly accessible way to understand and apply Islamic teachings to spirituality.
