The Reader’s Digest of October 2004 had an article entitled 10 Keys to True Happiness. We as Muslims have held the keys to happiness for over 14 centuries. Here’s two that they got right:
FAITH
Of the dozens of studies that have looked at religion and happiness, the vast majority have found a positive link. Religion is a very powerful way of coping with adversity.
The Holy Qur’aan tells us:
Whichever (Believing) man or woman does good deeds (in the obedience of Allah) We will definitely give them a good life…
CHARITY
Several studies have found a link between happiness and giving charity.
Islam emphasises the great rewards of spending welath in charity.
We believe with complete faith that Islam in all aspects has the perfect solution for true happiness in this world and the next. Studies merely back up that faith.
Be Happy
