Purpose of life

     Purpose of life is a philosophical question concerning the significance of life or existence in general. It can also be expressed in different forms, such as "Why are we here?", "What is life all about?", and "What is the purpose of existence?". According to Merriam Webster Online Dictionary, purpose means something set up as an object or end to be attained or other words, intention. While, life means the period from birth to death. So we can say that purpose of life means that something that we want to achieves in a period of birth to death. 


     To me, purpose of my life is to be a good muslim. A good Muslim is a person who has strong unquestionable faith, who consciously strives for the hereafter, by giving, being patient, merciful, forgiving, is full of love and respect, well-mannered, sweet-tongued, kind and a charitable loving person.

     To be a good muslim, one must obey all of the regulations that has been prepared for all the muslims in the world. One must also be honest and loyal to his creator. If a servant does not have honest and loyalty to his Creator, one cannot provide any comfort or help to His creatures. One's appearance may be glittering but it has no significance if one's inner self is filthy and rotten. One's words may be sweet and smooth; however they have no importance if one's intentions is that of evil.
     

     As a muslim, one must try to convey the teachings of Islam, and must make sure other peoples to have a good impressions towards Islam. If one as a Muslim shows the bad values to others, peoples will have a negative perceptions toward Islam and this will brings to misconception to Islam.

     So, as a good muslim, one must portray an excellent personal example, if one desires to earn the pleasure of Allah (Almighty), this is the way which will lead to success.
