The Realities behind our Existence...

 We, the human beings are the most blessed and the most valued creation of Allah. No other creation has been dignified with powers like ours. We are that prestigious creation whom Allah has gifted abilities to form societies and systems with law and order for the beautiful functioning of life. It is for us that Allah has created the beautiful nature with all the bountiful offerings in them.

   Why do you think Allah has designated us such a high rank? Have you ever questioned the reason of your existence? The whole unimaginable space of the universe is completely filled with Allah's creations. There is no space Allah has left void. Some are visible to our naked eyes but there are invisible stuffs as well; they maybe living or non living. But out of all, why are only we given the highest dignity? Have you ever wondered?

    Its because Allah wants us to worship him. But all creations worship Allah then why are we different? All other creations have no other choice other than worshipping Allah. They have been programmed that way. But the Almighty has honored us with the ability to think, make choices, realize and analyze. This.. is a big test from Allah (s.w.t). He is trialing our choices. What needs to be done to make through this trial is to 'choose' to worship Allah. The Almighty has given us more choices and more rights. This inturn automatically makes us to shoulder more responsibilities. Yes, this is the system of this world and it works only that way.

   We have seen many a times that people around the globe come out to streets in the name of rights; demanding more rights. But rare is the case when there was an emphasis on responsibilities. Noone is bothered about shouldering responsibilities. Rights and responsibilities go hand in hand. The more rights you demand the more responsibilities you need to carry. Its the same the other way around. The more responsibilities you sow the more rights you reap! This is exactly the way of life and Allah, the Exalted, Himself has installed this system in us.

   This itself is the principle Islam also works on. Islam is all about Ikhlas; submission to the the will of Allah. We need to sit back and review our character and our deeds and rectify ourselves. Its high time that we realize the blessings  Allah has showered upon us and make up our minds to pay back our responsibilities in return of His blessings. What Allah expects from us is nothing but our heartfelt worship for him. 

   More than an obligation we need to take it as our responsibility to worship Him. Establish connections with Allah through the obligatory prayers and strengthen the bond with Quran, zikr of Allah and most importantly abundant of salawats in the name of Prophet Muhammed (s.a.w) because only our love for the Habibullah can take us to the divine presence!
