Tazkiyah The Islamic Path of Self Development

Tazkiyah, self-development, lies at the core of Islamic life and is essential for those purifying their souls and actions.

Self-development, tazkiyah, is an authentic Islamic practice. Yet self-development is rarely written about despite its centrality to Islamic life. This anthology is a practical manual in English to assist those who want to achieve self-development by purifying their souls and actions. It covers practical topics, including: management skills, daily routine, intention and commitment, communication skills, as well as delving into spiritual areas of interest, such as: man's relationship with Allah, constant striving and the Islamic worldview.

There is hardly any book in English that covers self-development from an authentic Islamic perspective. Yet, tazkiyah, self-development, lies at the core of Islamic life and there is need for a practical manual in English to assist those who want to achieve self-development by purifying their souls and actions. This anthology has been compiled to meet this need, by translating works that originally appeared in Urdu. It includes key contributions presented by well-known leaders of the Islamic Movement Mawlana Mawdudi, Ustadh Khurram Murad and others.

About The Author

Abdur Rashid Siddiqui was born in Bombay, India in 1932. He studied Economics, Politics and Law at the University of Bombay before coming to the UK to complete his postgraduate studies in Librarianship in London. He briefly worked at Liverpool Public Library before joining the University of Leicester in 1966, working as a senior librarian until his retirement in 1997. He also served as a Muslim Chaplain at the University and delivered Friday Khutbahs on a range of topics, which were later compiled by himself in his Book Lift Up Your Hears (in two volumes). He was elected an Associate of the Library Association.

He also engaged himself in the community work soon after arriving in the UK, playing a leading role in a number of organisations including the UK Islamic Mission, Muslim Council of Britain and the Islamic Society of Britain. Developing governance documents and policies was his major contribution.
