Quran's Verses On Purpose Of Life

[Dr. Irfan Shahzad]

رَكَ الَّذِي بِيَدِهِ الْمُلْكُ وَهُوَ عَلَىٰ كُلِّ شَيْءٍ قَدِيرٌ ‎﴿

الَّذِي خَلَقَ الْمَوْتَ وَالْحَيَاةَ لِيَبْلُوَكُمْ أَيُّكُمْ أَحْسَنُ عَمَلًا ۚ وَهُوَ الْعَزِيزُ الْغَفُورُ ‎

Very exalted and very Benevolent is the [Lord] in Whose hands is the dominion [of the world,] and He has power over all things. [He] Who created death and life to test you as to which of you does better deeds. And He is also Mighty and Forgiving. (67: 1-2)

وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ

I have created the jinn and men only for My worship. (51: 56)

قَدْ أَفْلَحَ مَن تَزَكَّىٰ ‎

successful shall be he who purified [himself]
