Purpose of human life
The human being is created with a noble purpose, with earthen and trifle body backed by high-powered heavenly soul. Association with the soul manifests existence of a person - the soul is the person, not the body. The soul is originated from the kindest Allah and after long staying in the world, its reunites with Him.
The only purpose of the creation of human being is that human being abiding by the order of Allah with due regards and devotion perform worship and serves the creation to satisfy Allah. Through a process of relentless service to the Almighty and the creation, any person can attain heavenly bliss and delight even in this world. Like a traveler, the soul comes to this world to attain virtue.
Sufi becomes so much engrossed with the memory of the Allah even forgetting self-existence. By eliminating sense about the self, a Sufi plunges into a world of eternal knowledge. When knowledge about the self diminishes, the knowledge of the supreme soul emerges.
Sufi views the after-life as the expansion of present life. He who will earn here will enjoy there. He who is not keen for self-development will specially suffer in the after world. Eternal refinement is the trait of human being.
Human soul can travel in the intricate world in dream. The soul of the saints can gather remarkable information by traveling in the intricate world even in conscious state. One is broad and the other is intricate. The intricate world is beyond time and place. The soul can move at ease in the intricate world. The soul is not destroyed with the end of the body.
Creation of human being
Human being, if desire, can turn himself into meanest beast and also can gain heavenly bliss and delight even in this world. As the worst metal is turned into gold by the Touching Stone, likewise a human being can gain the position of a heavenly messenger from brutality. The touching stone by which this type of miracle is achieved is known as love. Love is heavenly which promotes human being from the mundane world to the heaven.
Human being is free, but as is confined to his limit, he cannot cross the bounds of Allah. But this does not mean that He is limited by the continuity of his actions. Therefore, Allah is not responsible for what man does.
If human being was not free and was controlled entirely by Allah, then there should not have been anything like sin and piety. The whole universe would turn into a puppet show. There should not have been any need for creation. Allah would have remained immutable. There should not have been any need for experiment; and human force would have lost is meaning.
Allah is the only creator and everything present in the universe is His creation as is subject to decay.
In this creation, human being is the best. Moreover, everything around human being, the sun, the moon and the animals, have been created to serve him. The Quoran thunders forth the people that the entire world is created only for the welfare of human beings.
The only purpose of the creation of human being is that the human begin abides by the order of Allah with due regard and devotion and worships Him
