Nothing in life is without a purpose

Nothing, and I repeat, nothing in our world is without a purpose – a rain droplet, a leaf that drops from the tree, the earthquake that occurred in Turkey that led to more than three thousand fatalities, that single sperm that succeeds, from among millions, in fertilising the egg in the woman’s uterus, the victory […]

Nothing in life is without a purpose, a statement that holds true for the tiniest rain droplet as well as the catastrophic earthquake that struck Turkey, claiming over three thousand lives. Albert Einstein once stated that God does not play dice with the outcome of events; each occurrence is not a mere happenstance. To truly comprehend the wisdom behind these events and phenomena, one must essentially become a god, but we all know there's only one deity.

These entities in nature do not merely exist for themselves; they serve a higher purpose that extends beyond their own existence. Rivers do not drink their waters, trees do not consume their fruits, and the beautiful flowers' fragrance benefits not only the flower itself but also other elements of nature, including humanity. In the context of human physiology, the organs within our body are all designed to serve purposes that are greater than themselves.

Our sensory organs, genitals, and the entire human body have been crafted by the Creator for very specific, sacred purposes – to recognize and affirm the existence of the Almighty, and to worship Him in preparation for eternal life.

According to the Quran, God has commanded us to acknowledge that He has created us not merely for amusement, but for a higher purpose. He has declared that our prayer, acts of devotion, and living and dying should ultimately serve Him alone. This realization is crucial in understanding why the world is currently engulfed in conflicts and crises. The root cause, I contend, lies in humanity's loss or forgetfulness of our original purpose for being on Earth.

This materialistic view of life, which places the self at the center and dedicates everything to human pleasure, has far-reaching implications. It leads us to believe that the world is immanent rather than transcendent, and views earthly life as no different from that of animals. Those who subscribe to this belief are often at the periphery of life, never finding true satisfaction.

The Prophet of the Almighty, upon him be peace, taught us that whatever is destined for us and for you will be ours without demanding excessive effort or labor. However, if something has not been predestined for us, it shall never be ours, regardless of how diligently we strive to attain it. Stay in your own lane, and be patient with His decrees.
