Journey of the Soul

Have you ever wondered who you really are? Are we just the flesh and bones that make up our bodies, or is there something more to being human?
 
Allah has placed a soul in every human being. This soul is a wondrous, blessed creation that has existed before you entered the world, and will continue long after you leave it. Created with a magnificent purpose, your body carries your soul through this world. Did you know, however, that your soul has already stopped at pre-ordained points before you were born, and has other stages to pass through before entering into Eternity?

Islam places our soul at the centre of our life’s purpose and provides us with rich and compelling guidance to aid us through. While we travel along the journey, we learn what it really means to be human, how to nourish our soul and how best to prepare for the Eternity that awaits us all.
