Following the sacred course of Qur’anic invocations, Dr. Muhammad A. Hafeez elegantly portrays in Human Character and Behavior the mission of man as God’s trustee on earth. His book profoundly explicates God’s commands in managing human affairs and building a society based on truth and justice. It is an amazing guide through the Qur’an and the Sunnah of its prophet demonstrating that man’s prayers and acts of worship become aimless rituals if he does not follow the divine commands in perfecting his character and behavior in order to accomplish his mission as a bonafide trustee of God on earth.
