Practical Spiritual Advice for Muslim Self-Care 

The wasiyyah of Shaykh Abu ‘Abd al-Rahman al-Sulami contains forty-six counsels. Each counsel concerns actions Allah and His Messenger ﷺ have commanded us to perform or avoid. Each of the actions in the counsels impacts one’s physical, moral, and spiritual well-being and development. The book is a lighter, kinder, and gentler companion to his Infamies of the Soul and Their Treatments. Read together, these two provide a practical toolkit and plan for self-care and development.
