INTRODUCTION
Indeed all praise is due to Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'âlâ - Glorified and Exalted is He); we praise Him, seek His help and beseech His forgiveness. We seek refuge with Allah from the evil of ourselves and the evil of our actions. No one can misguide the one whom Allah guides; similarly, no one can guide the one whom Allah does not guide. We testify that none has the right to be worshipped but Allah and that Muhammad (salla Allahu 'alayhi wa sallam - blessings and peace be upon him) is His slave and messenger.
Amongst the available literature directed specifically towards Muslims, there is a dearth of information related to improving the inner self. This is a vital topic, for it is the inner self that is responsible for acquiring a place either in paradise or hell in the next life. The soul, the psyche, the mind, and the heart - these parts of the human being are essential in maintaining the equilibrium and thus maintaining happiness.
The mind is powerful, controlling much of our souls, our thinking, and even our physical wellbeing. It can bring happiness or sadness, satisfaction or depression, and calmness or anxiety, so we must use it to ensure that we enjoy life and live it to its fullest. We must utilize our talents, appreciate our imperfections, accept ourselves, and appreciate what Allah has given us in this life.
Allah is the source of all strength and of satisfaction and tranquillity in our souls. He is the One in Whom we must put our trust and our hopes.

The Path to SELF-FULFILMENT
The Path to Self-Fulfilment seeks to uplift your inner soul and give you the necessary means to live a fulfilling life based upon both the love of Allah and the love and acceptance of the self.
Happiness is crucial to being able to love Allah. How could we really dis- play and realise our love of Allah if we spent our lives in a depressed state? This book presents essential facets of self-fulfilment and happiness: self- acceptance, self-confidence, determination, self-observation, self-improve- ment, and stress relief. In addition, it addresses issues that are fundamental to healthy relationships, such as effective communication and forgiveness. As the end result of implementing this knowledge, the concept of happiness is examined, with detailed suggestions for learning to trust Allah, accepting Allah's will in our lives, and sharing our blessings.
