I think many people ,including many muslims ,accept the qurans answer to the purpose of the universe (To worship Allah only) with some doubts.
Many might say ,that this answer is too short and it is hard to just tell non-muslims that are purpose on this life is to worship Allah only.
Well ,when I was a bit younger ,everytime I read the ayah "And I created not the Jinn and mankind except that they should worship Me"

Many people ask themselves everyday ,whats the purpose of this life.
Once a person thinks deeply about his environment and himself ,he/she will understand that the purpose of all this is to worship Allah only.

Have you ever asked yourself why you have hands ,feet ,eyelashes ,a mouth and so on ?
Why there are trees ,mountains ,seas ,clouds ,plants ect ?
Why are things the way they are ? Why is there a sun and a moon ?

You dont need to be a muslim to understand the purpose of life ,even if there were no books sent down ,one day ,without being distracted from anything around you ,you will ask yourself why things are the way they are. Because things are the way they are and we have no control over them ,someone put them the way they are ad he has control over them.And that someone is God.

Many say God is God because he is perfect.Yes he is perfect ,but God is God because he is the creator ,the one who created everything.
He is God because he is nothing similar to whatever comes to your mind or you have seen or you can ever imagine ,not just because he is perfect.


You dont need super hard scientific discoveries to believe in God ,even without miracles and scientific discoveries you can understand that you were created by a God who has made everything to serve you in order for you to worship him and at the same time enjoy what he has created.
Imagine ,you live in a room without anything ,just look at yourself ,why do you have 2 arms ,2 feet ,and why are you composed of a system of organs ?
You are yourself a sign of Gods existence.You have a soul that looks upon the signs on earth and knows its Lord.
Everything around you is a sign of God ,and the purpose of your life is to worship him ,he created you and everything around you to know him and worship him.

There can't be another purpose other than worshipping God because the whole universe is a system of signs for us to remember God.
And worshipping does not only involve praying ,it involves everything which God has allowed us to enjoy.

Brothers and sisters ,just ponder about why things around us are the way they are and you will better realize that God made everything the way it is so we can know him ,worship him and enjoy whatever he has placed for us on earth that is lawful for us to enjoy.

A person who has truly wondered about this will not have the time to envy other people ,hate them ,look down upon them etc....
Your face ,my face ,a white mans face ,a black mans face ,a red mans face ,isn't that not just a sign about Gods diversity in creation ? Did he create us in different color so that we can attack and discriminate on each other ,or isnt it just a sign of his beautiful creation ?

God is so generous he gave us so much diversity to know him.
