Ali Unal tries to present a framework of moral values and principles derived from the main sources of knowledge in Islam: The Qur'an and the sayings of Prophet Muhammad. He outlines the rights and obligations by which a believer is expected to live. The potential of human self-hood as the noblest of all creation is explained by how men and women may rise along the path of perfectibility towards being truly human. The book also discusses the virtues encouraged in the Qur'an and the Sunna as exemplified in the life of the Prophet Muhammad.
