Surrender means to give in and according to the Islamic psychology; it means to give up on worldly desires that are surely the means of disruption and an obstacle between the happiness, satisfaction and tranquility.
Without manifesting oneself or soul, no one can find the real happiness. The real happiness lies in self-expression. Ability to express yourself is only possible when you are well tuned with your inner self. And this is the purpose and teaching of Islam.
In fact, in every religion they teach the same thing. Buddhists find their inner peace by reaching an exalted state of Nirvana whereas; followers of some other religions find their ultimate peace in meditation or salvation. Muslim saints and sufis proclaimed that the real satisfaction lies in having no desires. Desires are all those materialistic dreams that a person runs after all his life. Neither they get fulfilled nor the person gets his inner peace and remains disturbed, in melancholy and grief.
Surrender to Allah Subhana wa Tallah is inevitable and once the person gives up on his or her materialistic desires he finds freedom from his worries and thoughts. Surrender to Allah Subhana wa Tallah means to announce your defeat and denounce the ugly will. The same will that is against the will of Allah Subhana wa Tallah. The best way to surrender is to fix your gaze and heart upon remembrance of Allah Subhana wa Tallah. When you find difficulty in life or have pain remember and ask only Allah Subhana wa Tallah. When you are happy and life is smooth then say Alhamdolilha and remember Him the most. Surrender your rebellion soul and keep it busy in the same way the Holy Quran says to get inner peace and betterment in both of the worlds, here and hereafter.
“Surely in the Remembrance of the Divine do the Hearts find Satisfaction” (Qur`an)

The main purpose of any religion is to spread peace and love. Muslims believe that every religion is based on Islam, the true and only Deen. Islam was the path given to the first prophet of Allah Subhan wa Tallah called Hazrat Adam A.S. After his demise, the people made alterations in religion and fell into idolatry. Upon this, another prophet was sent to purify the hearts of the people and bring them back to the right path.
This process kept on going like that until the last prophet Hazrat Muhammad SAAS was born in Arabia. The last Holy Prophet declared in his last sermon that Islam has been completed and there shall be no other prophet after him till the Day of Judgment is there.
The Holly Prophet left his beautiful legacy in form of Sunah besides Quran Pak (Holy) for the people of the world for the rest of the times and until Qayamah. Quran Pak and Sunah include all those ingredients that can bring peace and love in the life of an individual.
The Divine Book Quran is not only for the Muslims but also for the whole of the humankind. Any person who wishes to learn the ways to spend his life in peace and tranquility should study Quran Pak. In Quran Pak Allah Subhan wa Tallah clearly defines about the code of life. How to live, breathe, exist in harmony and all that a person needs.
It is the perfect manual for the human by his Creator. Sunah, is the practical example of Quran Pak. All that has been revealed in the Divine Book Quran Pak has been practiced by our beloved Prophet Muhammad SAAS.
Islam focuses on the importance of self-realization, which is the base of happiness. In fact, true happiness. The process starts in the pure heart, aids in releasing the person of his fears, unwanted anxieties, and heals the body and mind. All the difficulties that inherent in the life of an individual are due to the ignorance and broken connection with Allah Subhana wa Tallah.
Islam shows the right direction towards Allah. It is not merely the realization but in fact, the base of every sort of progress, spiritual and emotional wellbeing. With the help of obligatory and optional (Nafal) ibadah or worship, the individual can find the path to success. The Muslim concept for being successful is not merely in this world but they strive hard for the success hereafter. Change starts from the heart and it is the heart that needs to be transformed. From negative perspective to positive attitude, it is the belief of a person that plays a huge part. For the strengthening of belief or Imaan the best method is to follow the divine words of Allah Subhan wa Tallah and Sunah of our beloved prophet SAAS.
The one who is successful in all or most of the aspects and areas of life have surely found the peace and love. The connection with Allah Subhana wa Tallah is inevitable for growth and manifestation of every kind.

Islam is the second largest religion in the world with large number of true followers that makes one fifth of the entire population. The believers stick fast to their beliefs of oneness of God and that there is no God but Allah Subhana wa Tallah. Islam is called the religion of peace and its teachings are meant for increasing the universal harmony, love and tranquility. At present, more than a billion people who follow the faith of Islam settled around the world are making Islam as one of the largest religions on the planet across the globe.
The teachings of Islam are not at all based on any ambiguities and are illuminating the hearts of believers. As many consider that Islam is merely fulfillment of certain obligations is wrong. A misconception that becomes the root cause of problems for many Muslims it is. Because along with the duties and obligations or the way a person should behave and act are all predefined in the holy book Quran but without understanding their spirit and essence a person cannot benefit him or her with their actual effects and blessings.
Prophet Muhammad SAAS gave the Muslims practical example of how to live one’s life. He SAAS became the perfect model for the Muslims and the monotheist followers are advised to follow the footsteps of holy prophet Muhammad SAAS. But it is not just only verbal acceptance that matters here. In order to become the true follower you need to learn the essence of Islam. Islam, Quran and Sunah are going to remain unchanged or without any deformation till the Day of Judgment. However, the believer must adhere in his or her heart the true meanings of embracing Islam.
In reality, the religion Islam is broad spectrum and enshrines lot more meanings than merely being monotheistic or following the obligations. Islam means submission. Submission of one’s self to the One and Only God. He, who created the heavens and earths and all that lies in between with His immense knowledge, power and strength that is beyond the grasp of any logic, wisdom or mind.
The personal name of God or ism e zaat as believed by the Muslims is Allah. To become a true Muslim the person needs to strive for the submission. Submission to Allah SUbhana wa Tallah means total surrender and faith that no other deity or divine being is there except Allah who can give benefit or detrimental. However, the beliefs of many Muslims are a shaken and they have forgotten the essence of all the teachings of Islam. Their ignorance and less understanding of the depth or spirit of Islam is what that is keeping them divided and at loss.
