Nasreen Abdur Raheem
   They say that a fool lives to eat
    and a wise man eats to live, but
    then the question remains, for
    what purpose does the wise man
    live?
   Majority of humans look for a
    purpose in something materialistic
    – discoveries, inventions, making
    money, etc. …
   But surely there has to be a much
    greater purpose for us in this life…
    An Arab poet expressed his
    uncertainty about the purpose
    of life in his poem “Puzzles”.
   “I came not knowing from
    where, but I came. And I saw
    a pathway in front of me, so I
    walked.
    And I will remain walking,
    whether I want this or not.
    How did I come? How did I
    see my pathway? I do not
    know!
Am I new or am I old, in this
existence?
Am I free and unrestrained?
Or do I walk in chains? Do I
lead myself in my life? Or
am I being led? I wish I
knew but… I do not know!
   To worship Allah(swt)


    )

   “And I did not create the
    Jinn and Mankind except to
    worship Me.”
    (Surah Adh Dhariyath, v:
    56)
   In order to worship Allah, we
    need to know Him and
    recognize Him.
   Recognize Him the way
    He(swt) described Himself
    in the Glorious Qur’an and
    how          the       Prophet
    Muhammad (saw) taught us.
   If we try to find Allah in other
    sources, then we will surely
    go astray.
   Duniya is a test for the Aakhirah.






   “He who created death and life
    to test you(as to) which of you is
    best in deeed, and He is the
    exalted in Might, the Forgiving.”
   (Surah Al Mulk, v: 2)
   Slight doubt makes other beliefs meaningless.
   If there was no life after death, it would mean
    injustice to those who suffered in this world.
                                                     )

   “Or should we treat those who believe and do
    righteous deeds like corruptors in the land? Or
    should we treat those who fear Allah like the
    wicked?”
   (Surah Saad,v:28)
   The path of our future…

                                                               An Naar
SubhanAllah!

Remember: This life is an exam and
“The Qur’an” has all the answers… so,
   wouldn’t it be a shame to fail an
          open book exam??
So, if a fool lives to eat and a wise man eats

   to live then, a believer lives to worship

 Allah (swt), seeking only His pleasure by

      which he wishes to enter Jannah!

          JazakAllahu Khairan!

Understanding the purpose of life as a believer

  • 2. They say that a fool lives to eat and a wise man eats to live, but then the question remains, for what purpose does the wise man live?  Majority of humans look for a purpose in something materialistic – discoveries, inventions, making money, etc. …  But surely there has to be a much greater purpose for us in this life…
  • 3. An Arab poet expressed his uncertainty about the purpose of life in his poem “Puzzles”.  “I came not knowing from where, but I came. And I saw a pathway in front of me, so I walked. And I will remain walking, whether I want this or not. How did I come? How did I see my pathway? I do not know!
  • 4. Am I new or am I old, in this existence? Am I free and unrestrained? Or do I walk in chains? Do I lead myself in my life? Or am I being led? I wish I knew but… I do not know!
  • 5. To worship Allah(swt)  )  “And I did not create the Jinn and Mankind except to worship Me.”  (Surah Adh Dhariyath, v: 56)
  • 6. In order to worship Allah, we need to know Him and recognize Him.  Recognize Him the way He(swt) described Himself in the Glorious Qur’an and how the Prophet Muhammad (saw) taught us.  If we try to find Allah in other sources, then we will surely go astray.
  • 7. Duniya is a test for the Aakhirah.   “He who created death and life to test you(as to) which of you is best in deeed, and He is the exalted in Might, the Forgiving.”  (Surah Al Mulk, v: 2)
  • 8. Slight doubt makes other beliefs meaningless.  If there was no life after death, it would mean injustice to those who suffered in this world.  )  “Or should we treat those who believe and do righteous deeds like corruptors in the land? Or should we treat those who fear Allah like the wicked?”  (Surah Saad,v:28)
