Death and Hereafter { in islam}

2. So.....why I am here?

So before getting to know the reality of death, we should ask one question to our self's that why are we here in this world what is the purpose of life? Everyone would acknowledge that our body parts, such as our eyes =, ears, brains and hearts, have a purpose. Wouldn't it then make sense that the individuals, as a whole, also has a purpose?

Allah, the All-wise, did not create us to simply wander aimlessly or to only fulfill our basic instincts and desires. Rather, we have a higher purpose to acknowledge and worship god alone, so that we live on the guidance of our creator. This guidance enables us to live a successful and blessed life in all aspects. this includes personal act of virtue like prayers, as well as beneficial acts to society, like being good to one's neighbors, supporting one's family, honesty, and caring for animals.

Allah forbids us from worship anything else (e.g. statues, the sun, the moon, saints, priests or even prophets). He does not need any partner or intermediaries. Everyone can worship Allah directly.

Allah describes this life as a test, and people are tested in different ways. We cannot control what happens to us, but we can control no how we react. Bits of Patience during adversities, and gratitude for blessings, are the means of getting closer to Allah and attaining eternal paradise. We are also warned of a terrible punishment in HELL if we choose to disbelieve and ignore his commands.

Asalamualikum
