Purpose Of Life
God, who is all-wise, didn't make us just to wander or fulfill our basic wants.
Instead, we're here for a higher purpose: to recognize and worship God alone, following His guidance for a fulfilling life.
God's wisdom shows in giving us life, knowledge of Him, and the freedom to choose. Islam teaches a balanced, respectful life, where worship isn't just praying but any action pleasing to God.
Making a living through honest work
*Quran 2:188 And do not consume one another's wealth by unjust means, nor offer it as bribes to the officials in order to consume part of other people's wealth illicitly, while you know.
