....3.
Human beings have been given the best and purest of foods. While
chickens, dogs, cats, and goats search for their sustenance in
what we have thrown out, and wild animals eat the flesh of their
prey, human beings eat the best and purest of food, sitting at
tables, using their hands and utensils.
....4. Human beings are superior
with a fitting superiority over almost all of creation. Human
beings are superior over almost all of creation, with the exception
of the sacred angels.
....WHY WERE HUMAN BEINGS CREATED?
....Allah Almighty who has created
human beings says:
...."I created the jinn and humankind
only that they might worship Me." (Dhariyat, 56)
....While Allah Almighty created
all creatures to benefit or complement one another according to
the order of the universe, He created human beings only to worship
Himself, thereby, human beings are created in the best of molds.
....What is Worship?
The word for worship in Arabic literally means submission. One
who worships is called a worshipper (Abd). According to
Islam, worship means submitting to Allah alone, Who is the only
Lord of all the universes, and to obey His commandments.
