This article is a review of a book written by Nasaruddin Umar, titled “Doors towards Happiness: Learning 9 Art of Happy Life in the World and the Hereafter/ Pintu-Pintu Menuju Kebahagiaan: Belajar 9 Seni Hidup Bahagia di Dunia dan Akhirat”. This study aims to photograph his unique ideas about Spiritual Happiness.

In addition, the author seeks to map several important principles used as the foundation of theory, both theoretical and practical.
