Look around the RootThe Seven Sections of This Site
A garden needs a few things to grow well, and so does our soul. We have put everything on this site into seven sections, and each one is named after something a garden needs:
GOD: The Root
Everything starts at the root, and the root is knowing our Creator. In this section we look at who God is, His greatness, His oneness, His creation, and how we can keep Him in our hearts all the time.

The soil is where our soul takes root. In this section we look at what it really means to submit to God alone, and at the foundations of faith, from worshipping God alone all the way to the Hereafter.

Water keeps a plant alive, and our practices keep our connection with God alive. In this section we look at the practices that feed that connection, which are prayer, charity, fasting and pilgrimage.

Sunlight helps a plant at every stage of its growth, and the Quran guides us at every stage too. In this section you can read, search and download God's final message to humanity, so His words can light the way for us.

From The Quran: Surah Al-Fatihah (The Opening)
We recite this prayer many times every day, but it is worth asking ourselves whether we really understand what we are saying. This week, let's look closely at its seven verses, which are the foundation of every Contact Prayer (Salat).

WatchWhy This Site Exists
Today there is a lot of confusion about religion. There are many traditions that disagree with each other, and many teachings that people made up themselves. What we want to offer here is something simple:
We offer God's word, and we do not add anything to it or take anything away from it.
Grow Your Soul is built on one principle, which is that the Quran alone is enough as a source of religious guidance. We do not follow books of hadith written by people, or the opinions of scholars, as sources of religious law. We follow what God actually said.
This site is here to help you:
- Know God: His attributes, His greatness and His mercy
- Understand true Submission: what God actually asks of us
- Practice with clarity: prayer, charity, fasting and pilgrimage, explained from the Quran
- Read His words: a Quran you can search, download and read easily
- Keep growing: through audio, video and tools for reflection
Your soul is very precious. It deserves the truth, and not tradition. It deserves light, and not confusion.
We are very glad you are here, and we welcome you to your garden.
