Human

“We have certainly created man in the best of stature;
Then We return him to the lowest of the low.”
Except for those who believe and do righteous deeds, for they will have a reward uninterrupted.” ¹
(The Holy Qur’an)

Humans is the most honorable creature in the world. Human is the treasure of the universe as an intelligent and a conscious being with free will and sense of responsibility. Allah the Almighty, the one and only Owner of the earth and the heavens, has created human in the perfect form. Allah (swt) has given human a physically balanced and moderate body, a soul to make them alive, a mind to differentiate between the right and the wrong, and a conscience that can make life meaningful. Therefore, human being is a whole with their body and soul.

Allah the Almighty, who has created human out of nothing, formed them in the best of stature, feeds them, protects them, and bestows upon them blessings and all kinds of beauty. What Allah the Almighty wants from human is to have faith and do good deeds. The reason for the existence of human is to render the world prosperous by taking responsibility as a servant.

The historical adventure of humanity started with the first human, the Prophet Adam and his wife, Hawwa (Eve). Afterwards, humans were divided into various nations to meet with each other and establish good relations.

Humans have quite superior qualities, privileged power and abilities compared to other creatures. Due to those faculties, they have the ability to ask for bad and spread it around the world as well as asking for goodness and practicing it in life. Sometimes they establish a happy life for themselves on earth through their patient, eager, devoted, peaceful and fair attitudes while sometimes putting themselves in danger through their ignorant, selfish, ambitious, hasty, and ungrateful attitudes.

Nevertheless, Allah the Almighty has never left human alone, deprived of blessings, and unaided in life. He (swt) has supported human in their test of life and guided them with His prophets and books. He has sent an order to teach what is good, nice and true, and what is bad, ugly and wrong to the human, whom He created and treated with mercy. This order, which guides human during their journey in the world and helps them to prosper in the Hereafter, is religion.
