Assalamu Alikum wa rahmatu Allahi wa barakatuhu
"I only creater jinn and men to worship me"
What tips would you give so that our life turns into worship.
Sleeping,eating,walking,talking,listening,going to school,work...
How would this turn into a valid ibadat(worship)?

Well, one thing I know is that it must be halal.

With the intention of pleasing Allah (swt) all of that may become worship. :)
And if I remember right, you speak Bosnian. There's a great lecture by shaykh Safet Kuduzović about intentions, a commentary on the famous hadeeth "Deeds are by intentions."

All the action you do and all the struggles you do in your life ( assuming all of them are halal) are a way of imaan.God wants you to do good and remember him.If you do that , its ibadat

100 AHADITH ABOUT ISLAMIC MANNERS. 33
Abu Hrairah (may Allah be pleased with him) reported. The messenger of Allah (pbuh) said, "If anyone sits in a gathering where he does not remember Allah, he will bring grief upon himself from Allah (on the day of resurrection) and he who lies down in a place where he does not remember Allah, will bring grief upon himself from Allah (on the day of resurrection)." (Abu Dawud)
Commentary: Man should remember Allah on all occassions. This will establish and cement his bond with Allah, keeping heedlesness away from the heart and mind. It is heedlesness that prompts man to transgress divine rules and limits, whereas the rememberance of Allah prevents him from indulging in backbiting and passing slanderous remarks about people in thier abscence or reproaching and belittling someone at a meeting.

Makes a lot of sence. Allah alone created the universe and he alone should be worshiped.
He gives us sustance,groung we walk on. It's his, so in his name we should use it.
We're put on this Earth to be tested between remembering and forgeting about Allah.
Thanks all for your time.

And the whole Earth was created for us so that we may use it.
There's also a rule: something, that leads to another thing, takes the ruling of that other thing. E.g. sleeping itself is mubah. But, if you sleep so that you're able to read the Qur'an Kareem, or offer salaah, then you get rewarded for your sleep! Or, if you educate yourself so that you help the Muslim Ummah prosper and so that Allah's word reaches others, you also get rewarded, subhanAllah.
Similarly, if you sleep so that you may spend the whole night in a disco, your sleep is haraam.
PS: Usput, ja studiram u Sarajevu, tako da znam za šejha Safeta. :D

Peace to those who follow the guidance.
An excellent thread, which i have found to be relavant and quite helpful,as i have led a very sinful life
Horace (65-8 BC), the famous Roman lyric poet, said carpe diem (seize the day).
This phrase, prevalent since the seventeenth century, sums up a philosophy of life based only on this world’s life, which i have been subscribing to.
it means that a person should not think about tomorrow, but live in the moment and make the most of each day, that they should not consider that death can come at any moment or think about what comes next.
in the past i had surrendered to my temptation,disgracing passion and misleading whims, and had fallen into the abyss of immorality.
i read somewhere that the greatest jihad is to wage war against ones whims and desires against ones soul and passion. unfortunatley for me it was a loosing battle.
Now i am using this blessed month as a stepping stone to climb out of the pit that imorrality has plunged me into.
Repenting, striving to free myslef from the shackles of sinful desires in search for salvation, make the hereafter my only concern, and surrender myelsf whole heartedly to will of the Allah (swt)
