Quranic Wisdom
According to the Quran, a person’s life has been divided into two phases: the pre-death period and the post-death period.
The present life is only temporary and is meant as a test. Depending upon our performance in this test, we shall be judged in the eternal life after death. The Quran aims to make one aware of this reality and help one lead one’s life in this world in such a way that one is rewarded with Paradise in the life Hereafter

About the author
Wahiduddin Khan
310 books385 followersMaulana Wahiduddin Khan is an Islamic spiritual scholar, who has adopted peace as the mission of his life. He was born in a family of landlords in 1925 at Badharia, a village near the town of Azamgarh, in the Indian state of Uttar Pradesh (formerly known as the Eastern United Provinces).
After his father’s death in December 1929 he was brought up by his mother, and his uncle, Sufi Abdul Hamid Khan, arranged for his education. He comments that becoming an orphan very early in life taught him that, to succeed in life, you have to take such situations as challenges and not as problems. Being an advocate of result-oriented and positive action, he explains that treating such situations as problems can only be negative in result. All you can do in this state is either try to fight to remove them or lodge complaints or protests against them. On the other hand, if you take such situations as challenges, you can positively and constructively work to overcome them yourself, as and when suitable opportunities present themselves. His success in life is largely due to the implementation of this and other such principles, which he has derived from Islamic scriptures.

I dedicated reading this book during the holy month of Ramadan.
Over almost 400 pages, the book is dedicated to providing the wisdom out of the verses of the Quran. However, the book is more of a collection of articles by the author with no apparent sequence or linkage between its chapters.
Chapters are shallow, superficial, and are bound to a lot of recurrence and repetition. It could be more useful for kids although I don’t see an established benefit that could be reaped out of the context.
Also, I trust there are a numerous implications that calls for being submissive and passive, especially when it comes to topics on Jihad and politics.
The author clearly is an advocate of the “Cute Islam” version that certain parties call for and try to pervade.
Two stars for some of the reminders that deems positive and constructive.
