			Next question Assalamualaikum I'm Sophia and a 15 year old from Pakistan. My question is, if our
purpose in life is only to worship Allah, then why should we spend most of our lives studying and
trying to get degrees and looking for jobs? We can just become an Imam or a Mufti and spend our life
serving Allah. Most people spend most of their lives studying and trying to become engineers, etc.
Why is that when we should work harder on worshiping Allah and preparing ourselves for the next
world? Allah subhanaw taala says in the Quran in surah Daria chapter 51 verse number 56, one ah
hello to Jin navall insularity Abu doon, that I have not created the jinn and mankind except worship
		
00:00:49 --> 00:00:49
			me
		
00:00:50 --> 00:00:58
			The purpose of the creation of the human beings it is to worship Allah subhanaw taala we human
beings, we have a free will,
		
00:01:01 --> 00:01:03
			we can either do the right or we can either do the wrong.
		
00:01:05 --> 00:01:20
			So the movie engage in the remembrance of Allah subhanaw taala The more we do a bada we will get
reward from Allah subhanaw taala and in the Hereafter, we will enter Paradise and Allah subhanaw
taala same sort of chap number 28 was number 77

00:01:27 --> 00:01:28
			and
		
00:01:29 --> 00:01:49
			do not forget your share in this world, we should also not forget this world totally. And we have
the example of our beloved Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him. Even he was involved in Dawa but at
the same time, he used to do the daily activities, the daily things to own his bread and butter.
		
00:01:50 --> 00:02:32
			Therefore the best profession for any human being, it is to convey the message of Islam to the non
Muslims as Allah subhanaw taala season so in chapter 16 was from 125 although lscb lira bakeable
hekman was in our Little Havana wotja it has an invite to the way of dialogue with wisdom and
beautiful teachings and argue with them and reason with them in the ways that our best and most
gracious, Allah subhanaw taala say in sort of facilite chapter 41 was the mortality one man x and
older men men die Allah La y milazzo alayhi wa called indian indian muslimeen who is better in
speech than the one who calls others towards Allah subhanaw taala works righteousness and sees that
		
00:02:32 --> 00:02:33
			I am a Muslim.
		
00:02:35 --> 00:02:38
			So the best profession is the profession of a guy.
		
00:02:39 --> 00:02:57
			And the best people are those people who are full time dies. Those who dedicate their lives for the
sake of Allah subhanaw taala as Allah subhanaw taala since rollin ronchamp number three was 204

00:02:59 --> 00:03:19
			led that arise out a few a band of people calling towards what is good, and joining what is right
and forbidding what is wrong, they are the ones to attain Felicity. Today in our community, we have
full time doctors full time engineers, how many full time diaries Do we have. So, the best
profession is the professional for die.
		
00:03:20 --> 00:03:33
			But I do agree that everyone cannot be a full time die, but every human being should at least be a
part time die. And we do require certain people to be doctors to be engineers to be teachers etc.
		
00:03:34 --> 00:03:43
			So, even if a person becomes a doctor or engineer or a teacher, he should be a good practicing
doctor, he should be a good practicing engineer.
		
00:03:44 --> 00:04:03
			He should be a good Muslim. If a person becomes a doctor, if a person becomes an engineer, he should
not involve in things that are Haram, for example, bribing, cheating, etc. It is good to be a doctor
to be an engineer, but you should be a good practicing Muslim doctor, you should be a good
practicing Muslim engineer.
		
00:04:05 --> 00:04:16
			And the best profession is a profession of a dye, the one who conveys the message of Islam to
others. Then we also have after that the profession of a scholar.
		
00:04:18 --> 00:04:23
			And we have after that the profession of a teacher, a teacher who teaches Islamic Studies
		
00:04:25 --> 00:04:27
			in a school, in a college etc.
