Description :

Nizami Zindagi Qur'an ki Roshni mein - The Quranic Way of Life : For a Muslim, the Holy Qur'an is not only a manifesto and constitution for eternal life, it is also the essence of living and provides the fundamental principles of living. It is necessary for a Muslim to be attached to the Qur'an by not only reciting it, but also in trying to understand it and acting upon its commands.


This book covers the following subjects in detail :

   *** Belief,
   *** Worship,
   *** Ethics & Morals,
   *** One's Behaviour and Everyday Dealings,
   *** Orders and Commands,
   *** The Prohibited and Forbidden.


In this book, the Ameer of Sunni Dawat e Islami, Mawlana Muhammed Shakir Noorie, provides guidance based on Qur'anic solutions for matters which we are faced with in our daily lives. Upon reading it you will realise that there is no aspect of life for which the Qur'an does not provide guidance and principles. The only condition is that we must strengthen our connection and relationship with the Qur'an. We should try and understand what we are reciting and try and fully act upon the guidance which is given by the Qur'an.
