We have to answer the most fundamental question that every human being asks himself at some point in his or her lifetime. Not just Muslims, but every single human being.
"Why was I created? Why am I here? What am I doing in this world? Why did God create me?"
These questions, are questions which each and everyone of us reflects on at some point during their life. We have some answers, which are given generally, but usually these answers don’t satisfy us, they seem somewhat simplistic. We still wonder. "Why me? Why here?" I know all of you, generally speaking, in the back of your mind, you are saying "to worship Allah, khallas (finish), what more is there to say? Why do we need to have a big long talk on why we were created, when we all know it is to worship Allah?" But wait, if this is presented to a non-Muslim, the next logical question would be "why does Allah want us to worship Him?" and then your stuck.
