Description
Summary:True education emancipates and liberates people from the shackles of ignorance. it iswidely acknowledged that one of the greatest threats facing humanity is the problem of in- security and disobedience that is not only slowing down the anticipated spiritual develop- ment but also poses a danger to human existence. The vital role that commandments of Al- lah {SWT) take in modifying human codes of conduct cannot be overemphasized: they calls for unity, peace, and exemplify harmonious relations between all races and nations, most especially with Allah {SWT) who created us. The main objective of this article is to examine the creation of all beings and why we are created, then to look at the need to remember Allah at all times and His commandments for our daily lives. The methodology used here was the investigation of the Holy Qur'an, the hadith and a general expository approach. The findings showed that it is important to know one's creator and why one was created. Understanding His commandments as a manual for us is also important. This article con- cludes that all creatures, whether one is a Muslim, Christian an adherent of another reli- gion, should recognize the existence of Allah's commandments as a manual for life. The ar- ticle points out that every living soul will account on the Day of Judgment for all his own deeds in particular and for those of all human beings in general.
