How To Be Happy and Successful? Learn, Read, And Understand Quran

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم
In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate

The most successful person in the history of humanity is Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam, even according to those who don’t believe in him (Encyclopedia Brittanica, The 100, Time Magazine, etc.). What was his manual? The Quran. To be successful, there is no better guide than the Quran.

أَفَلَا يَتَدَبَّرُونَ ٱلْقُرْءَانَ أَمْ عَلَىٰ قُلُوبٍ أَقْفَالُهَآ ﴿٢٤

Then do they not reflect upon the Quran, or are there locks upon [their] hearts? [Quran, Muhammad 47:24]

Who created us, why are we here, and where are we going? The correct and complete answers are given by the Book of Allah only.

Every person in this life undergoes cycles of happiness and sorrow, and of ease and tough situations. In easy situations, we tend to forget everything else. But when life goes through tough situations, no one can help you, not even money, position, status, relatives, power, etc. In those times, only Allah through His book can guide you to the best solutions. It alone can give you peace of mind and heart.

Each one of us is struggling in this life to find peace and happiness. We should then remember that we are made of up of two main parts: Body and soul. We are well aware of bodily needs and give our full attention to fulfill them. What about the soul? Food for the soul is the remembrance of Allah and the reading of His book. If we don’t satisfy our soul, we can never be happy and peaceful, let alone content.

If you want to have a meaningful, peaceful, happy, and successful life, then the Book of Allah is the only answer. Learn, Read and Understand it.

Allahumma salli 'ala Muhammad wa 'ala aalihi wa sahbihi wasallam.

And Allah knows best and is Most Wise, and He alone grants success, and to Him is the final return of all.

Wassalaam
