In The Mission and Destiny of Humankind, Dr. Hafeez illustrates his own personal approach to the study of the Qur'an, which emphasizes the ongoing theme that we as humans have been placed on earth to be God's trustees. Individual Qur'anic passages are studied, reflected upon, organized thematically, and often even placed in outline format within tables that frequently grace the text.. --Jerald F. Dirks, Author of The Cross and the Crescent, Abraham-The Friend of God, Understanding Islam, The Abrahamic Faiths, Muslims in American History, Letters to my Elders in Islam, What You Weren't Taught in Sunday School
Dr. Hafeez has done a great job in writing The Mission and the Destiny of the Humankind. It is an excellent attempt to understand the commandments of the final revelation of God.

Muslims as well as non-Muslims can benefit from this book. --Prof. Dr. Saqib Riaz: School of Journalism, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN, USA
The Mission and Destiny of Humankind by Dr. Hafiz is a remarkable work.
