A long time ago, the world's most powerful empire was the Muslim empire. It was a nation full of scholars, doctors, scientists, ethical businessmen, and genius inventors. The early Muslim nation was founded by confident individuals, who trusted the Divine plan, using their God-given talents to make this world a better place. But somewhere down the line, things changed. The Muslim Nation declined until it became a shell of its former self. And then it broke into many fragmented pieces. This was followed by a generation of followers and imitators, low in confidence and self-esteem, feeling inferior to others, following and never daring to lead. The Muslim nation lost its confidence, but we can get it back by returning to our roots and going back to that which made the early generations so successful.

Islam is a living, breathing and truly eternal 'Way of Life'. A system that empowers us to live the 'highest' and 'best' version of our earthly existences on this planet in the most efficient, beneficial and timely way possible. And since the currency of time on earth is limited, Islam places a strong emphasis on how we can best utilize it. This book evaluates 15 powerful Productivity principles and lessons derived from the life of ʿUmar bin ʿAbd al-ʿAzīz, commonly known as ʿUmar II, the 8th Umayyad Caliph. Born in Medina in 682, he was the matrilineal great-grandson of Islam's 2nd Caliph ʿUmar bin Al-Khaṭṭāb. His immensely transformational rule as Caliph lasted from 717 until his death in 720. Despite his short reign, ʿUmar II accomplished major milestones and brought about lasting change in the entire Muslim world through his robust manner of governance. He made solid reforms in provincial administration, military strategy, education, taxation, fair dispensation of charity, and public works. His rule saw developments for construction of canals, roads, rest houses for travelers and medical dispensaries while expanding special programs for orphans and the destitute. One of his biggest accolades included ordering the first official collection of the Prophetic Hadiths in order to preserve them in a diligent and systematized manner so they do not get lost. What You'll Achieve: In this book, we dive deep into identifying, understanding and applying the Productivity gems of ʿUmar II that lead him to govern the Islamic State with great ability and progress until his passing at the young age of just 37. Penned by Shaykh Ismail Kamdar with a foreword from Shaykh Yasir Qadhi, the book is a culmination of restless research, immense hard work, and unwavering passion. Within its inspiring pages you'll find proven and timeless 'practical' lessons on Productivity that blends principles of modern Self-Development with accolades from the magnificence of Islamic history.
