Reason To Write The Book!
The world population is over 7.5 billion people but there is misery all around. The rich are getting richer and the poor are getting poorer, countries are fighting, religious sects are fighting, family members are fighting – why? It’s mainly because there is miscommunication, misunderstanding, and wrong expectations everywhere. There is no consensus to coexist peacefully.
The Corona virus has infected millions and thousands have died. Millions have lost jobs and many businesses have closed. God is trying to change humans, but they don’t want to leave their comfort zone and change (by looking after each other and working as a team).
For that purpose, God revealed five books for helping His prophets to guide mankind. The:
• Pages to Prophet Abraham.
• Torah to Prophet Moses.
• Psalms to Prophet David.
• Gospel to Prophet Jesus.
• Quran to Prophet Muhammad.
The Quran is the only book that exists as God revealed it in its original language – Arabic.
God revealed The Quran to Prophet Mohammad over a period of 23 years on a need basis. The Quran has four parts:
1. History from Prophet Adam to Prophet Mohammad.
2. Guidance for preaching God’s religion.
3. Guidance for humans to live their lives.
4. Human eternal life.
In The Quran, God has said:
70:19. Indeed, man was created impatient.
90:04. We (God) have created man to toil and to struggle.
10:100. No soul can believe except by God’s will, and He brings disgrace on those who do not use their brains.
In understanding the Quran, humans need to be patient, work hard, and use their brains to reflect.
I have written this book for humans to understand and use God's guidance to live their lives under all challenging circumstances of daily life, including stress, anxiety, poverty, sickness, famine, fights and quarrels. Please read and benefit from it for living a life of contentment, happiness, and success.

Akhtar A. Alvi shares God’s guidance for humans to live their lives no matter what their circumstances. Whether you find yourself stressed, poor, sick, starving, or fighting with others, the Quran, as presented in this book, has answers.
As he translated and analyzed the Quran, the author has focused on topics such as:
• what God has said the humans must do to earn an eternal life in paradise;
• why humans must toil and struggle to earn a living and avoid begging;
• what it means to have full conviction in God; and
• why believers must view themselves as part of a brotherhood.
God created humans as weak and sent them for a test on earth: to live their lives by following His guidance, by choice. His guidance is to believe in the unseen unique God; to do good deeds, and to urge each other to truth and patience.
