How do you integrate productivity for Allah sake?

If you could sum up The Productive Muslim in three words, what would they be?

Allahs' Productive Slave.

What other book might you compare The Productive Muslim to and why?

Three personal favorite and effective productivity books to compare with. The Productivity Project by Chris Bailey, Getting Things Done by David Allen, and Getting Results the Agile Way by J. D. Meier. The Productive Muslim book helps me strengthen and internalize the importance of being productive as a Muslim. The goal is not for material gains. Results are an outcome of Allahs' will. Investing in being productive to seek Allahs' pleasure and Use productivity as an act of worship. MashaAllah.

What did you like about the performance? What did you dislike?

While waiting for this audiobook release. I believe this audiobook needs to be read by the author himself, Mohammed Faris. Despite a very small unnoticeable narration pronounciation, his performance narrating the message was clear and easily absorb. Consistency in delivering his energy in his voice throughout the book. MashaAllah. TabarakAllah.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

A few times I got home and reaching the office car park, I was still in the car listening to complete the chapter. This is because there is just so much knowledge to reflect on from each chapter of the audiobook. Connecting the dots. MashaAllah.

Any additional comments?

I would like the publisher or author to upload the bibliography of the book accompanying this audiobook. Most of the reference made in the book needs to be checked and read deeper. Especially when author narrates the translation and quote from the Quran. I would like to know which Verse from which Surah it was Quote. JazakAllahu khair.

Outstanding. A must read.

May God bless Abu Productive/Faris bro for bringing out this outstanding work for all those who are struggling to balance this world and the hereafter.

life changing

being productive

l truly enjoyed all the islamic life lessons. Definitely words to live by. i will take head and begin the change to become more productive in my daily work, family and spiritual life.

A great read at every stage in your career and imaan!

I originally postponed listening to this book because I thought I was not “Muslim enough”; I was very wrong. Mohammed Faris beautifully described and compiled popular productivity theories and practical tips to increase productivity while simultaneously connecting everything back to the holistic religion of Islam. I will continue to return to this book often as this life has no one-and-done hack, but I now have a new approach to all aspects of my life that will be more fulfilling, connected, and productive.

I can’t recommend this book enough

I started reading this when I was at my lowest. this book helped me pull myself out of my deepest depression & relieve my anxiety. I would genuinely like to thank the author of this book from the bottom of my heart. may allah grant you belongs in this life and the hereafter.
this book is for everyone. For anyone struggling with productivity, for anyone who has lost their focus, for anyone who needs to shift their perspective, for anyone who’s struggling to achieve their goals, for anyone wishing to strengthen their iman, for anyone wishing they could just find enough reason to begin that project or start that habit, for anyone who’s struggling with anxieties of daily life, for anyone who’s facing hardship, READ THIS BOOK.

Very productive, highly recommended. Especially during Ramadan

I was born in Jamaica W.I and grew up in Queens N.Y. Raised by a single Catholic mother, I converted to Islam in my 30’s. I receive much more recognition and positive inquisition through Islam. In particular during Ramadan, mainly from my non Muslim co-workers and associates whom are always very supportive, encouraging and astonished to watch the process from beginning to completion. If you are considering joining Islam or just participating in the observance of Ramadan, please let me bear witness and say that the awe from the many people studying you everyday is alone worth the undertaking. This is only a small portion of the many blessings which will come to you during this holy month. I read this book during Ramadan. It was very insightful and gave me more motivation to properly complete my fast. In addition I also gained knowledge on the importance of regular prayer, social prayer and voluntary prayer. That’s not to mention the main subject of productivity and everyday success which is the crux of each chapter

very helpful and inspiring...

this gives me the motivation and inspiration to finish my projects and become the best muslim that i can be. it shows how u can serve others better without sacrificingc your own happiness.

If God is the master, then all God's creations are slaves

It's simple:

Slaves have a Master
Servants do not have a master

It can be said that term 'servant' is a gateway to shirk

Amazing book!

Truly enjoyed the teachings of this book and learned a lot! Thanks for the wonderful book
