Journey of the Soul

Journey of the Soul: Heading Home is an illustrated work for young readers by Zimarina Sarwar, published by Kube Publishing. It introduces children to the Islamic concept of the ruh (soul) as a creation of Allah that exists before birth, inhabits the body during earthly life, and continues on after death. Drawing on Quranic references and prophetic teaching in accessible language, the book walks through the soul's stages, from its origin, through life's trials, to death and the return to Allah, encouraging young readers to reflect on identity, purpose, and preparation for the Hereafter. Paired with illustrations, it is designed as a gentle introduction to Islamic eschatology and self-awareness for families and Islamic studies classrooms, suitable for both younger and older children.
