The Ideal Muslim by Muhammad Al-Hashimi

The Ideal Muslim: The True Islamic Personality of the Muslim as Defined in the Qurʼan and the Sunnah by Muhammad Al-Hashimi is among those books which should be part of every Muslim bookshelf and curriculum. 

The book focuses on the lofty and ideal character of a Muslim, as Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said: “I have only been sent to perfect good moral character.” 

It’s incumbent upon every Muslim to strive towards highest moral character and try is his best to emulate his beloved ﷺ. 

The author presents the True Islamic Personality of the Muslim as Defined in the Qurʼan and the Sunnah, In nine valuable chapters: 

1. The Muslim and his Rabb
2. The Muslim and his own self

5. The Muslim and his children
6. The Muslim and his relatives

I can’t recommend this book enough, it must be read and applied by every Muslim.
