HUMAN BEINGS WERE CREATED

TO SERVE ALLAH

e are conscious beings who have the ability, created

in us by Allah, to distinguish between right and
W wrong. As a result, we can understand His great
power and the proofs for His existence, as well as the real pur-
pose of this life and our life in the world to come.
But these abilities entail certain responsibilities. Anyone
who can conceive of all these things is aware that Allah is the
only power Who must be served, and that there is no other deity
besides Him. Also, he is aware that our basic responsibility in
this world is to have faith in Allah. In the Qur'an, Allah says this
of Himself to His servants:
He is the Originator of the heavens and the earth. How
could He have a son when He has no wife? He created
all things and He has knowledge of all things. That is
Allah, your Lord. There is no god but Him, the Creator
of everything. So worship Him. He is responsible for
everything. (Surat al-An’am, 101-102)
