What Are We Here For?

وَما خَلَقتُ الجِنَّ وَالإِنسَ إِلّا لِيَعبُدونِ

“I only created jinn and man to worship Me.“Qur’an, 51: 56

وَأَنَّ إِلىٰ رَبِّكَ المُنتَهىٰ
وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ أَضحَكَ وَأَبكىٰ
وَأَنَّهُ هُوَ أَماتَ وَأَحيا

“And that the final destination is back to your Lord. For He’s the One Who grants laughter and tears – that He is the one Who brings about both death and life“Qur’an, 53: 42-44

قَيِّمًا لِيُنذِرَ بَأسًا شَديدًا مِن لَدُنهُ وَيُبَشِّرَ المُؤمِنينَ الَّذينَ يَعمَلونَ الصّالِحاتِ أَنَّ لَهُم أَجرًا حَسَنًا

“[The Qur’an] is upright in order to warn of a painful torment directly from Him and to give the good news to the faithful: those who do right actions and for that there is an excellent reward for them.“Qur’an, 18: 2

إِنّا جَعَلنا ما عَلَى الأَرضِ زينَةً لَها لِنَبلُوَهُم أَيُّهُم أَحسَنُ عَمَلًا

“We made everything on the earth adornment for it so that We could test them to see whose actions are the best.“Qur’an, 18: 2
