Allah, the all Wise, all Knowledgeable, all Merciful and all Just created this Universe in order to test and examine His obedient slaves and reward them, and to punish the disobedient. He says: “We did not create the heavens and the earth and all that is between them in play. We did not create them except for a true purpose (to test and examine who are obedient, and to reward them, and who are disobedient and punish them), but most of them do not know.” [Al Quran Chapter adh-Dhukkhan (44): 38-39] Allah also made clear the main goal for the creation of mankind saying: “I did not create Jinn and Mankind except for My worship” [Al Quran Chapter adh-Dharia (56): 56]
