    About this ebook

    What is the purpose of the Creation of Mankind? If the purpose of man is, as Muslims advocate, to worship Allah, as mentioned in the following verse:
    "I have created mankind and the Jinn (a fiery, invisible being) in order that they may worship me." (51, 56)
    ...does it then suggest that the Almighty is in dire need of our worship? This, though, would be an obvious contradiction of the Islamic belief in Allah being absolutely Self-sufficient, Independent and Transcendent. If, on the contrary, the answer be no, then it would seem that mankind serves no purpose at all. What then is the purpose of the creation of man? Furthermore, if man was created for worship then why was he granted the freedom to choose not to do so, and even to deny the very existence of Allah himself? What then is the nature of man and what, if anything at all, makes him so unique? And how are we to understand the nature of the relationship between mankind and Allah? This book provides answers to all these questions and more.
