Transcripts
What do we live for?
The sun rises everyday,
to bring lives,
then it sets
on the west.
Not to rest,
it sets
to rise again.
What for?
What is this impeccable day and night alternation are for?
Does it happen for no reason?
If so,
then, the universe would be such a waste
with prevalent of countless lives and creations within,
will be such a futility.
As if there isn't any God,
That is Most Knowing.
The All-Wise.
The Most Wise of Creator.
This is absurd.
Our commonsense can not comprehend it.
'And We did not create the heavens and earth
and that between them
in play.
(merely play, anything done in vain)' QS. Ad-Dukhan: 38
Do we live, night and day
only to eat, then grow,
acquire the worldly goals,
find a partner,
produce offspring,
prepare our offspring to achieve their dreams,
getting old,
and then died, buried in the ground,
leaving behind all those arduous accomplishments,
then be forgotten..
as time goes by?
that's it?
No afterlife?
alas, how short
and meaningless, then life was.
If so, what is life all about?
If no more happiness to strive for afterwards?
If there is no question, nor responsibilities,
for every seconds that we have been through.
There is no reward,
no paybacks, and no punishment.
There is no heaven, or hell.
No justice after death
Then what do we live for?
Why do things exists?
If there is no life after death?
If it is impossible for human to plan
and to create something without purpose,
Is it possible that Allah ﷻ with all the wisdom,
created the universe to serve no purpose?
Brothers and Sisters, life is precious.
We do exist for a reason.
There is something to endeavor!
