This review was maktub. HAHAHAHAH
I enjoyed this story so much. It took me into another new foreign world, a world full of dreamers and hard workers. It took me some time to realize the message that the book wanted to convey, but I finally did, although I didn't understand most of the book.

The book wanted to send the message of persuing your purpose in life “Personal Legend” believing in god and his omens, keeping an eye on his world, his vast test ground. The book also emphasised the idea of leaving all for the sake of your purpose, referring to the purpose as the home of the warmness of heart and the home in whom the person connect to his outside nature. It also tried to explain how everything a human does from his start as a child till his last days are written “Maktub” by God himself. It was amazing thinking of this idea alone that you don't need to worry or to think of tomorrow just let it for the force of every power, the hand of every action and the strongest and greatest.

Allah

Anyways, it was an amazing story. it's worth reading. I will give it 4 stars because there's some stuff no matter how hard I tried. I didn't understand
