Ever wondered if there's a practical way to lead a productive lifestyle that combines the best of Islamic tradition and modern psychology and science? In The Productive Muslim , Mohammed Faris, the founder of ProductiveMuslim.com, provides this practical framework that helps urban global Muslims lead a productive lifestyle - spiritually, physically, and socially. Review: Great read - Great tips and insightful, Useful info. Review: Islam was sent down a blessing to make our life easy and this book shows how! - After reading this book, I've come to a conclusion that this book is not written (or atleast the idea is not researched) in a single draft or in a short span of time. This is a work of years, I believe. And, it pays off, fully! This book is beautifully indexed with various aspects of human life (major habits which define a human being) and the author takes on all the aspects individually and in detail. Every topic in this book has been linked with either Quran (Word of Allah (SWT)) or Hadith (Life & Teachings of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)) and that is the beauty of it. People say Islam is very difficult to apply in modern times. Is it? No. You just need to do it the right way. Try it and you'll be happier than you ever were. The writing is crisp, clear and to the point; nothing more or nothing less. The editing of this book is such that you can read the complete book in a single go, though you'll have to re-read it to analyze the points and apply it to your life on day to day basis. This is not just a guide to Islamic lifestyle, it's more of a self-help book and occasionally motivational as it helps us realize what our real purpose is or what our ultimate goal should be. It's a must have book for every household. Use this as a textbook to learn, teach it to yourself and to your family, also, extend it to the world. Get it (without a second thought), read it & apply it. Make your life better. Content: 10/10 Writing: 10/10 Print Quality (Paperback): 9/10

Well writen, researched, and easy to read
Just finished reading this book and I must say that I really enjoyed it. As the chapters progressed, I tried to implement the all the improvement and even in the short term, show positive results. What I liked about this book was that the sources / proofs was clearly detailed, and the explanations were simple and easy to understand. The book followed a logical layout and the graphics helped summarize each section. I would highly recommend getting this book; even to people who consider themselves productive. There is a lot of good advice in this book, and I will likely be reading it again, just so I don't miss anything!

Clear and well cited! Lots of ideas to think about.
I really enjoyed this book. From the illustrations to the easy to follow suggestions and conversational tone, it has served as a great resource. May Allah reward the authors for their efforts in writing such a well cited book. Iโve always hoped to combine studies on productivity with Islamic practices and this book does it well. Leading life with much more direction and drive from now on isA.

Good Work, Hoping the Future Work will be better
One of the reasons why modern Muslims have entered an era of stagnation is due to a decline in engaging in meaningful dialogue, reading, and writing. This book, although not comprehensive, serves as a small spark that can ignite a larger fire, motivating Muslims to awaken, read, write, and discuss the principles and teachings of Allah (SWT). While the book could benefit from citations of more empirical studies, I appreciate how the author has begun to outline the role of the modern Muslim writer. I believe future authors will build upon this work and further explore the topic. Well done, and keep up the good work!

Insightful!
I was working on my productivity journey and I found this book has multifaceted approach on productivity x Islam as a way of life. It's not those "judgmental motivational books", it's a gem which combine the wisdom from Al Quran, Rasulullah PBUH life, contemporary readings and research, as well as the current condition of the ummah. Full of insight and compassionately written.

Beautiful reminder of the true purpose in life
The past 2 years I was working towards the goals I set for myself. However, often times I was distracted and was lacking the focus to achieve those goals. Not only did this book give me useful instructions on how to become more focused and energetic but it also reminded me of our true purpose in life: Serving god for the rewards in the hereafter. Suddenly, it clicked and I knew exactly which course I had to take with my life. And no, itโs not about accumulating wealth for the sake of being wealthy, but to have a sincere intention and to impact this world in a positive way (however small the change might be).

Best book ever
This book is just really what I was looking for. I read many books about productivity, but this one is different. As a Muslim I felt totally understood. Mohamed Faris did a great job exploring every aspect of our everyday lives, taking into account our obligations. If you are trying to build your life around our beautiful religion, then this is the right book. You will also find references to the holy book and the Sunnah, and many tips to be the best version of yourself. The book is well structured and every chapter ends with a drawing to sum it up. English is not my first language, and I found it quite easy to read. Obviously, I recommend it and I hope we'll find more books like this one.
