Review:

“Vehapi presents some of the guidance of four great Islamic personalities, who are greatly significant for Muslims, yet are largely ignored in Western literature. The four caliphs are not regarded as mere historic figures by Muslims; they are considered as relevant today as they were ‘historically.’ Vehapi skillfully compiled some of the teachings of these Islamic symbols in a way that is easy to follow by Muslims and non-Muslims alike. His book is highly commendable.” —Imad M. Bayoun, author of Belief and the Human Mind

“Living with the Final Prophet enabled his close companions to soak up his profound knowledge, something we can do 1400 years later by studying what they learned from him. The Prophet’s deep insights into the mysteries and contradictions of human nature made his spiritual successors unrivaled teachers of wisdom, something that is sorely lacking in today’s troubled world. Flamur Vehapi deserves our thanks for reconnecting us with this priceless wisdom.” —Joel Hayward, author of The Leadership of Muhammad

“An amazing collection of pearls of wisdom … a must read!" —Amber Haque, co-author of Islamic Psychology Around the Globe

“An outstanding compilation of enlightenment and guidance extracted from the wisdom and experiences of the best of the Muslim nation (ummah). The content of this book can serve as a life compass for Muslims and others alike.” —Didmar Faja, author of Echoes of the Prophet

“The Book of Great Quotes is more than just the sayings of the early caliphs. It is a superlative synthesis of the very core of Muslim values. It is both succinct and beautiful at once. It is a must read for Muslims and non-Muslims alike that is hard to put down and leaves us wanting more. Vehapi provides us a well documented, easy to read collection of sayings of the first four caliphs of Islam that reminds us what it means to be Muslim." —Brandon Mayfield, author of Grains of Destiny

“A delightful collection full of relevant knowledge and gems of wisdom for our time.” —Naser Bresa, author of Retrospectiva and Alo, Komiteti?

“Beautifully written … an impressively splendid work.” —Salma Ahmad, president of ISGP, Portland, OR
