Enjoy Summer, Keep Morals







Muslims who truly understand the teachings of Islam are sincere to their faith and strong in their morals. They mix with people, yet keep their modesty and truthfulness, no matter how the surrounding environment would affect them.
Unfortunately, when summer comes, many people extravagantly rejoice it and indulge in every sort of entertainment and fun. They arrange trips to breathtaking places. Mistakenly, they think that everything is assuredly allowed without any morals or religious considerations, as if fun and morality were two opposite things.

In this folder, you are invited to receive some useful tips on how to enjoy yourself in summer while at the same time adhering to the limits set by your Creator. You will learn that spending a pleasant time does not conflict with the Islamic morality; just activate those Islamic morals and put them into practice.
