Al-Ghazali begins by outlining the essential principles that govern all interactions with other people and with oneself, and which every Muslim should strive to embody and cultivate within his or her life. The core of the book is a sort of practical manual of adab, and includes sections on such everyday issues as: The Adab of the Scholar, Student, Reciter of the Qur'an, Muhaddith, Khatib, and many other roles related to worship and seeking knowledge Adab of fasting, eating, drinking, giving and receiving charity, giving and receiving gifts, and of being wealthy or poor Adab of sleep, waking, being in public and in social gatherings, and other ordinary life situations Adab of husbands and wives, parents and children, and other relationships Adab of some common professions ABOUT THE BOOK OF INTENTIONS The Book of Intentions is a new bilingual translation of Kitab al-Niyyat by Habib Muhammad ibn ʿAlawi al-ʿAydarus, better known as Ḥabīb Sa'd. In this text, Habib Sa'd explores the transformative power of intention (niyyah) in Islamic practice. Rooted in the profound and widely-known hadith that "actions are by intentions," this book guides readers through the process of aligning one's daily actions with one's intention and purpose, such that every deed is transformed into an act of worship. Throughout the text, Habib Saʿd emphasizes that the heart's intentions are more significant than physical actions alone; and that even small acts, when performed with the right intention, can yield immense spiritual rewards. The Book of Intentions is structured around various themes, such as: Visiting the mosque Gathering for prayer Cultivating relationships with fellow believers Ordinary actions of everyday life And more. For each act, the author provides a detailed set of recommended intentions, highlighting the unique rewards associated with each one. Habib Saʿd also cites numerous hadith, along with many insights from the scholars and the tradition, to illustrate the deep-seated importance of intentions in the life of a Muslim.
