May Allah's peace, mercy and his greetings be upon you!
All praise is due to Allah, Lord of the worlds
and may the blessings and peace of Allah be upon the messenger Muhammad
and upon all his family and companions.
Welcome all!
Atheists say, "God doesn't create anything uselessly,
He doesn't need us either.
So why did God create us?!"
The idea of (Need is equivalent to uselessness) is silly.
As need may be equivalent to wisdom - not uselessness.
The opposite of thing may be equivalent to wisdom - not uselessness.
For instance, a wealthy famous doctor may cure people without asking them for anything.
He treats them for their own good.
We can't describe his action as "useless".
A skillful swimmer may save a drowning kid, then he goes away
and he doesn't seek for laudation from his parents or money.
We can't describe this swimmer's action as "useless" either.
There's no conjunction between need and uselessness.
And for Allah is the highest attribute, He needs no one.
Allah is free from need of the worlds.
Allah says in The Noble Qur'an: [Chapter 39 Sūrah al-Zumar Verse 7]
"If ye reject Allah, Truly Allah hath no need of you"
Your worship only benefits you.
Allah says in The Noble Qur'an: [Chapter 29 Sūrah al-al-ʿAnkabūt Verse 6]
"And if any strive with might and main, they do so for their own souls:
for Allah is free of all needs from all creation."
Allah is free of all wants.
Allah the Almighty says: [in the sacred Hadith]
"O My servants,
even if the first amongst you and the last amongst you and the whole human race of yours and that of the Jinns too in unison
become the most wicked all beating like the heart of a single person,
it would cause no loss to My Power.
O My servants,
even if the first amongst you and the last amongst you and even the whole of human race of yours, and that of jinns even, become equal in God-conscious like the heart of a single person amongst you,
nothing would add to My Power.
God the Almighty created us for a wisdom.
The patient's ignorant of the doctor's wisdom doesn't mean that the doctor's decision runs through a vicious circle of need-uselessness.
Because the doctor may not either be mischievous or needy.
And for Allah is the highest attribute.
The origin of divinely wisdom is that we don't know all of its dimensions.
It's enough for us to know that we are commissioned and that we know commissioning and its requirements.
You know you're commissioned and you have the feeling of Do & Don't.
You know that you were created in this world for a certain purpose.
It's enough for you to know there's a divinely wisdom.
That's good enough for you to live according to necessities of commissioning.
Otherwise, we'd be like the disbelievers.
As disbelievers deny anything they don't comprehend.
Allah says in The Noble Qur'an: [Chapter 10 Sūrah Yūnus Verse 39]
"Nay, they charge with falsehood that whose knowledge they cannot compass,
even before the elucidation thereof hath reached them"
Disbelievers hadn't waited to know the wisdom so they denied it all.
God the Almighty is the All-Wise and He created us for a wisdom.
He cannot be questioned for His acts.
Allah says in The Noble Qur'an: [Chapter 21 Sūrah al-ʾAnbiyāʾ Verse 23]
"He cannot be questioned for His acts, but they will be questioned for theirs."
To sum up, the person who are not in need, there's no conjunction between need and uselessness.
Let alone God the Creator.
On our level, why did God order us to worship Him?
God the Almighty knows that His servants only become virtuous when they worship Him.
His servants will only do well and their deeds improve by obedience to Him.
They won't know the purpose of their existence, why they are here or what's after death
except by believing in the Message and Revelation.
Whenever man drives away from God the Almighty,
he is led by his belly and private parts more than his mind and conscience.
Worship is a safety valve for mankind.
Worship is the purpose of our existence in this world.
Allah says in The Noble Qur'an: [Chapter 51 Sūrah al-Ḏāriyāt Verse 56]
"I have only created Jinns and men, that they may serve Me."
This means, God only created us equipped for worship
according to their innateness and senses I established in them.
So they're ready for worshiping.
Whoever believes in God and accepted that worship, will be saved.
Whoever been arrogant or stubborn or denied that worship, will follow a path other than that becoming to men of Faith.
Worship is a right of God the Almighty from his servants.
Allah says in The Noble Qur'an: [Chapter 36 Sūrah Yā-Sīn Verse 22]
"It would not be reasonable in me if I did not serve Him Who created me"
The necessity of relationship between the creature and the Creator is to worship Him.
Is it strange to look around, see those blessings and believe in their Creator?!
Allah says in The Noble Qur'an: [Chapter 80 Sūrah ʿAbasa Verse 24]
"Then let man look at his food, and how We provide it"
Doesn't your logic set right if you believe in God the All-Provider the Bestower?
Allah the Almighty likes obedience from His servants and likes not ingratitude.
Man will violate every taboo - if there isn't worship.
If God doesn't exist, then everything is permissible.
Does our existence have meaning at all without knowing God or worship, my friend?!
Does any atheist, let alone a believer, deny that the most important thing in this world in knowing God?!
Knowing God the Almighty is the purpose of all mankind
in every detail at the individual and society level.
The people who denies the existence of God are the most people who talk about Him.
Atheists talk about God all the time.
Ziyad al-Rahabani says, "The United states supports [has] Sunni, Russia supports Shia,
for atheists, they have God!"
Is there any other purpose for mankind to know God and find His wisdom?!
Whenever a calamity affects the most strong atheist, they don't think about worldly [material] reasons
yet, they think of God and scream in protest.
On the other side, Muslims thank God and praise Him.
God have only created Jinns and men, that they may serve Him.
Voltaire, who was the most famous atheists of all ages, built a chapel near his palace
and he engraved on its entrance, "O Lord, remember your slave, Voltaire."
And he assumed that was the only church for God.
However, other churches are for saints.
The innateness of moving towards God the Almighty doesn't slow you down even for resistance.
And for the last question:
Why does God decide on specific rituals for worships?
Why are prayer units of (Ẓuhr), (ʿAsr) and (Maġrib) different?!
The answer is very simple:
Allah says in The Noble Qur'an: [Chapter 67 Sūrah al-Mulk Verse 14]
"Should He not know,- He that created?
and He is the One that understands the finest mysteries and is well-acquainted with them."
God was the one who created you so it stands to reason that He knows what benefits you.
When Henry Ford invented that car and written down its catalog,
and designate the best way to deal with his car
because he was the one who invented it and knew it well.
Did anyone object [protest] then?!
God was the one who created you so it stands to reason that He knows what benefits you.
And for Allah is the highest attribute.
We ask God the Almighty to grant us success.
May Allah's peace, mercy and his greetings be upon you!
