Featuring quotes from notable Muslim poets, mystics, scholars, leaders, the prophet Muhammad and his companions, and the Quran, these pages touch on universal themes of gratitude, humility, patience, knowledge, nature, and more. Daily prompts encourage you to contemplate these topics and explore the roles they play in your life.

 

Inviting and accessible, this journal is a powerful tool for self-discovery and development. It is divided into twelve unlabelled months of thirty-one days each, allowing you to pick it up at any time of the year and use the calendar of your choice (Gregorian or Hijri). Each month features a new quote at the beginning of every ten-day period, followed by ten open-ended questions to help guide your thoughts and challenge you to pause, reflect, and express yourself freely. The tenth prompt in every section is a reminder to take stock of where you are, which is an important part of the Islamic tradition.
