REMEMBRANCE AND FORGETTING Why does awareness fade so quickly after prayer? Why does the heart drift even when belief is sincere? And why does return often feel harder than devotion itself? In Remembrance and Forgetting, the fourth volume in The Islamic Reflections Series, these questions are explored quietly and without accusation. Drawing on the spiritual psychology of Imam Abu Hamid Al-Ghazali, this reflection examines forgetfulness not as moral failure, but as a fundamental condition of being human. Rather than offering techniques or formulas, this book considers how the heart naturally moves between attention and distraction, presence and absence. It explores why remembrance was never meant to eliminate forgetting, but to meet it, again and again, through patient return. Remembrance is presented not as performance or intensity, but as orientation. Not as constancy of feeling, but as the repeated act of turning back when awareness thins. In this view, the quality of the inner life is shaped less by uninterrupted clarity than by the willingness to return without despair. Adapted and modernised from The Alchemy of Happiness, this volume is a contemplative reading rather than instruction or argument. It is written for those who worship yet feel distant, who believe yet forget, and who seek reassurance that inconsistency does not disqualify sincerity. Remembrance and Forgetting offers a calm companion for readers seeking to understand the rhythms of the heart, and to approach return not as failure corrected, but as mercy renewed.
