وَ مَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَ الْاِنْسَ اِلَّا لِیَعْبُدُوْنِ(۵۶)

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: And I created the jinns and men, only for them to worship Me.

(Part 27, Surah Az-Zariyaat, Ayah 56)

Similarly, in Ayah 2 of Surah Al-Mulk part 29, Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ has stated this purpose like this:

الَّذِیْ خَلَقَ الْمَوْتَ وَ الْحَیٰوةَ لِیَبْلُوَكُمْ اَیُّكُمْ اَحْسَنُ عَمَلًاؕ-وَ هُوَ الْعَزِیْزُ الْغَفُوْرُۙ(۲)

Translation from Kanz-ul-Iman: The One Who created death and life to test you - who among you has the better deeds; and He only is the Most Honourable, the Oft Forgiving. (Part 29, Surah Al-Mulk, Ayah 2)

Dear Islamic brothers! In the both above-mentioned blessed Ayahs the real purpose of the creation of human has been mentioned. For achieving this purpose man has been sent to this world for a very brief period of time and during this period of time he will have to prepare for the matters of the grave and the Judgement Day that will go on for a very long period of time. Therefore attaching importance to this time, get busy preparing for the grave and the Judgement Day. Instead of wasting any moment of  your life in useless activities try to spend it in worship and spiritual exercises, recitation of the Holy Quran, abundance of Zikr and Salat-‘Alan-Nabi and presenting call towards righteousness because we do not know whether we shall be alive the next moment or death will make us sleep deeply forever.

Let’s listen to an admonitory saying of the Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم     in order to wake up to the fact: The Holy Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has said:          اِغْتَنِمْ خَمْساً قَبْلَ خَمْسٍ Value five things before five things! (1) شَبَابَکَ قَبْلَ ہَرَمِکَ Youth before old age (2) وَصِحَّتَکَ قَبْلَ سَقَمِکَ Health before illness (3) وَغِنَاکَ قَبْلَ فَقْرِکَ Wealth
