Even though the human species has evolved and progressed over centuries in the shape of technical developments, though, there are various issues of metaphysics, conscious and unconscious that has been there from day one and that continue to disturb the human race at present time as well. One of such renowned questions is the question of existence of human.

Thinkers and Philosophers and all through the world have been debating on the matter of human existence. They all want to know or discuss on the purpose that how humans exist and the reason they have linked with their existence. To answer all these questions several take the way of philosophy whereas there are others who take the way of science. Though, there is a 3rd type as well, that tries to find out the answer this question in the light of religion.

Islam like all the other religions also addresses the reason of human existence as well. The point of view that Islam gives pertaining to human existence is quite different from other religions where in some there is no purpose for human existence, or if there is any, it is away from human understanding.

The motive why Muslims have an enhanced shot at understanding and knowing the cause behind human existence is the reality that ALLAH Almighty has bestowed them with Holy Quran which contains all the guidelines regarding to all the walks of life. It is by reading Holy Quran that the humans can easily find answer to the question of how they came into being and what is there purpose on this earth and in this life.

In Quran Allah Almighty says:

Verse 7:172-173of Holy Quran;

And [mention] when your Lord took from the children of Adam – from their loins – their descendants and made them testify of themselves, [saying to them], “Am I not your Lord?” They said, “Yes, we have testified.” [This] – lest you should say on the day of Resurrection, “Indeed, we were of this unaware.” Or [lest] you say, “It was only that our fathers associated [others in worship] with Allah before, and we were but descendants after them. Then would You destroy us for what the falsifiers have done?”

From the above mentioned verse it is clear that when ALLAH Almighty made the souls of the humankind, the initial thing He did was to take a promise from all the humanity in which they all testified to His Lordship. This oath represents the reality that all the humans were made conscious of the fact that ALLAH Almighty is their Lord and they have to to remember it. The things alter for people when they come to this world where they are given liberty of will. Therefore, few people don’t turn towards ALLAH Almighty and will many give different excuses for this action of theirs on the Day of Judgment. What this verse and the actions of people during the oath and when they come to this world gives the major purpose of existence of human in Islam i.e. knowing the ALLAH Almighty or identifying Him is the main purpose of human existence.
