Islam

God has stated in the Qur’an: “I only created mankind and the Jinn that they might worship Me.” (51:56) According to Islam, the principal goal of life on this earth, from day one, is for human beings to show profound reverence for their Creator. The individual who lives for worship has fulfilled the purpose of his life. Conversely, one who does not lead a life of self-dedication to God has become derailed.

What is worship? Worship, the equivalent to devotion, means giving oneself wholly to God: it means surrendering oneself in both the physical and the intellectual sense.

Akhirat or the Hereafter is another fundamental articles of faith in Islam. A Muslim should believe in the world of the Hereafter that will come after we die.

Taqdir (predestination) forms part of the fundamental beliefs of Islam. This is the sixth article of faith. Taqdir in Arabic is also called Al-Qadha-o-al Qadr, which means to “measure out” or “pre-ordering.”

Yawm al-Qayamah or the Day of the Resurrection means the Day of Judgement in Islam. Belief in Qiyamah is a fundamental tenet of faith in Islam. It is also referred in the Quran as, "the Hour" (Qur'an 31.34, 74.47), "Day of the Account" (Qur'an 72.130), "Day of the Gathering", "Day of the Reckoning", "Day of Distress" (Qur'an 74.9) and the "Great Announcement".
