The Confession - Testifying to the Revelation with the Verses and Hadiths

Excerpt from the book:

"The Quran does not impart theoretical or utopian knowledge. It imparts applicable and already applied knowledge with which man can improve his life and live within his own capacities."

"[...] the following questions occurred to me: "Are we distancing people from the simple and natural revelation of Allah? Are we suffocating them with the dry supply of information instead of showing them examples of application that they can transform into good deeds?"

These questions led me to the following realization: "We must make a comprehensive confession, directly based on the verses." I found this idea in verses 15 and 16 of Surah 73. I made a commitment with myself: I would first make this confession myself, so that those brothers and sisters who, like me, wish to complete this reckoning and make the confession would do so following the example of the prophets. I did this, starting with my neighbors, in order to facilitate a shared life. My goal is much less to provoke an accumulation of information, but rather to embark on the path of reading, understanding the verses, and giving da'wah.
