Islam, the Luminous Way of Life

Islam, the Luminous Way of Life

It is unfair to state that the Islamic message only focuses on religious rituals such as prayer, fasting, prescribed tax [zakat], and  pilgrimage  [Hajj]  and  that  it  does  not  address   issues regarding thought and behavior or that it has not  shown any concern about governmental systems, administration, or economic and political affairs. Indeed this is a naive statement as Islam has comprehensively discussed every issue concerning humanity including spiritual and social matters. Islam has never ignored any aspect of humanity; rather, it has identified the ideal state for everything -as reported in Narrations- something that no one denies except the unreasonable and the ignorant. This Islamic research attempts to elucidate this fact using textual evidence.
