Description :
This work reminds the readers, both Muslim and non-Muslims, that the
main and only lasting part of reality is in Unseen. It demonstrates how
one’s behavior in this world will determine one’s destiny in the
Hereafter.
It shows above all, however, that by the mercy and generosity of
Allah this world and the Next world are inextricably linked and that
part of the reward for living in tune with oneself and reality is a
taste of the Garden before death. The author makes it clear that the art
of living and dying is a science known to the Muslims and offered here
to the non-Muslims.
