About This Book
44 Ways to Manhood, subtitled Breaking old habits and building new personalities based on the Quran, asks what it means for a Muslim man to have a character in line with Islamic guidance. Drawing on the Qur'an and Sunnah, Taymullah Abdur-Rahman sets out 44 principles for Muslim men to apply in their lives.
Some principles are essentials of faith and character, while others are practical habits. The author argues that manliness does not mean being gruff or harsh, and that these principles, applied properly, protect a man from what does not benefit him in his religion and his Hereafter. The author has served as an imam and as a Muslim chaplain.
