I have studied Islam, and I have learned that the Quran says Allah created us to worship Him. I also have been told that Allah does not need our worship, rather the worship is for our benefit.
However, I am still not clear as to [I]why[\I] Allah created us. If Allah is without need, then why did He make a race of human worshippers in the first place? I would appreciate your insight!
The translation by Pikthall or Ayesha bewley is very easy to understand. Try one of them. Pikthall is available online
Thank you! I will look into those. I do wish I could read the Quran in the original Arabic but I don't speak that language so I can't do that at this time...

Original Arabic is so miraculous however the translations are even full of divine signs enough for guidance
