I. Allah created mankind to Worship Him.
Allah has created mankind for a purpose which is to solely worship Allah alone and not associate any partners to Him. Allah says, “And I (Allah) created not the jinns and humans except they should worship me (Alone) “(Quran 51:56)
This worship involves fulfilling Allah’s commands, avoiding what He prohibit and striving to live a life pleasing to Him. This worship for which Allah created Jinns and Humanity means to believe in the oneness of Allah and devote all forms of worship to Allah alone. Adherence to the teachings of the Glorious Quran and the Sunnah of His noble messenger Prophet Muhammad(S. A. W). These teachings and forms of worship include abiding by the five pillars of Islam which are believing there is no God worthy of worship except Allah and Prophet Muhammad (S. A.W) is the last Messengerr of Allah, to observe Salah (five daily prayers), give Zakat, fast (in the month of Ramadan) , Hajj(pilgrimage to Makkah) . Also believing in the six articles of faith(Eman ) which include believing in Allah, in His Angels, in the scriptures, in the Prophets and Messengers, to believe in the last day and in predestination both good and bad. Moreover, all actions should be done solely for the pleasure and to please ALLAH.Other actions such as slaughtering sacrifices, making vows, in seeking help, protection and all duas (supplications) as well as all our daily actions and activities. All forms of worship should be done to please Allah, for whoever does any form of worship to any other than Allāh has committed a great sin. And these worship should be done or performed according to how all the Messengers have taught us and based on what is revealed in the Qur’an and the Sunnah. Shaykh Al-Rahman al-Saîdi (may Allāh have mercy on him said) “Allah the exalted, created mankind to worship Him and to know Him by His names and attributes and to enjoin that upon them. Whoever submits to Him and does what is enjoined upon him will be one of those who are successful but Whoever turns away from that, they are the losers. He will gather them together in the Hereafter where he will reward or punish them for what he commanded and forbade them to do.
