A Refreshed Soul

The gift of giving has an impact on both the giver and receiver. No truer words have ever been written. This book examines the strategic impact of giving as the means of strengthening one’s own spiritual values. It examines the concept of values and the concept of charitable work and their origin and development in the Holy Quran and by the Prophet Mohammad [PBUH]. It also highlights the most prominent and most influential values in philanthropic practices, to arrive at a system of values that most influences the giving of individuals and institutions alike. The book aims to define the industry of giving; it answers two questions: Why are spiritual values the most important among a group of values that affect people's behavior and lives, and thus their societies? And if spiritual values are the most important, how can they improve people's lives, and regulate the priorities of human giving and development thereby expanding its impact and achieving sustainability?
