Description
Book SynopsisHow do we develop a spiritual life? How do we change ourselves so that we can live by the universal spiritual values of Islam? 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 on the teachings of Imam Ghazali and other classical scholars 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.
