While those who practice Islam perform certain rituals required of a believer, such as praying five times a day and fasting during the holy month of Ramadan, how many understand the real meaning of these rituals and discover their true purpose as Allah SWT wants for us? How many of us actually feel the glow of Allah’s light in our lives?
Allah SWT has gifted us with the immense blessing and miracle of the Quran, but have we only learned to recite the Quran and memorize some of its verses to meet the requirements of Islamic prayer, or have we allowed the Quran to become a vital part of our lives so that we may become enlightened and taste the sweetness of faith?

Whether you are already a Muslim or are only beginning to explore Islam, each page of this book provides new insights into the faith as seen through the eyes of a believer.

The key themes contained within the book revolve around everyday situations that one may encounter in life, with practical advice on how to better navigate life’s challenges through an Islamic lens. Readers will enjoy the positive and uplifting approach to each situation, along with the many opportunities for reflection the book provides.

“Islam Taught Me” is an essential read for anyone wishing to gain more insight into the beauty of Islamic teachings. Readers will refer to it again and again as they discover how important it is to cultivate the traits of a believer and practice Islam with a faithful heart.
I really enjoy this book it taught me a lot about how to control my anger my words and my actions I also learned that being kind no matter really matters in order to reach jannah Beautiful book.
This book was clear and concise with simple nice messages that can be incorporated in to everyday life which we felt would appeal to everyone not just Muslims. Some of us found the book a slow burner and felt it wasn’t as in depth as we would have liked however by the second half this changed. As this book was a different style/format/genre to the usual some of us are used to they found that this was a perfect book to start with and ease them in to reading books of knowledge. We felt that it would have been nice to have had the verses quoted in Arabic too and should this have been the case then we would have referred back to it. Overall a good book.
I've absolutely enjoyed reading this book! Beautifully written, this book has reminded me of the beauty of Islam and inspired me to be a better Muslim. With every page I read, I feel grateful for the blessing of Islam and want to try harder in improving my deen.
I would recommend it to everyone and anyone because, although they might not be Muslim, there are chapters that are really beneficial and helpful, whether it is regarding maintaining relationships in your life or making sure that you never burden yourself too much and are able to find a balance in life.
