Not only is it not written in the increasingly popular ’10 steps to success’ style, but it also is not pretentious in its claims to heal your heart and propel your growth overnight. Coming to the end of Mogahed’s book, however, I felt that this was so much more than just a self-help book.
Though the teachings of the Holy Qu’ran and hadiths are the backbone upon which Mogahed’s introspective musings are founded, I don’t believe that one has to necessarily be Muslim to benefit from the fruits of this book.īefore getting into the details of the book, I would just like to remark that I’ve always been a little dubious of self-help books, primarily because of the tendency that I have noticed in myself to read these types of book, feel briefly inspired but ultimately do nothing to implement their wisdoms. Yasmin Mogahed’s book Reclaim your Heart is intentionally written to ‘awaken the heart and to provide a new perspective on love, loss, happiness, and pain.’ Rooted in Mogahed’s own personal experiences of each, the 200-page book takes its readers on a journey to rediscovering self through the spiritual lens of Islam.
