"Indeed We have offered a mandate

(responsibility) to the heavens, the earth and the
mountains, but they are reluctant to carry it and are

afraid of the responsibility. Humans want to carry it, but

humans are many mistakes and stupid."(Surah 33:72)

"And when your Lord created Adam from his
back, and God took testimony from them, He said: Am I

In the concept of this agreement, humans promise to
hold or carry out the mandate, namely upholding the laws and

teachings of God's religion. It can be concluded that humans
were created by God with the aim of serving Him, while this

service is functioned by God, for humans to become caliphs
on earth, on the other hand humans also undertake and promise
