Title

THE PURPOSEFULNESS OF HUMAN LIFE FROM THE POINT OF VIEW OF THE QURAN, THE TORAH AND THE BIBLE

Pages

  133-162

Abstract

 The GUIDANCE of creatures is one of God’s traditions toward perfection. The system of creation has led the species to their proper perfection through evolution GUIDANCE, but with regard to man the perfection is brought about through GUIDANCE in the form of sending books and the messengers. From the viewpoint of THE QURAN, THE TORAH and THE BIBLE man has been created on the image of God. Therefore, the purpose of his creation is movement toward spiritual perfection along with knowledge. Human resemblance to God is conditioned to divine mercy, the acquisition of God’s moral attributes and living a spiritual LIFE. The present paper attempts to provide a recognition of the concept of PURPOSEFULNESS of human LIFE and the type of spiritual LIFE intended in THE QURAN, THE TORAH and THE BIBLE. According to THE QURAN, man with the capabilities bestowed upon him through creation, is the epitome of manifestation of divine attributes and is supposed to acquire the qualification of being the Divine Caliphate on the Earth and to be the locus of manifestation of God’s names. The teaching of prophets in THE TORAH are based on sanctity which requires man to keep distance from what is contrary to God’s will and to be devoted to His worship. In THE BIBLEs, the purpose of human LIFE is to follow the idea of Fall of Man and the original sin and to rely on the concept of the Christ sacrifice and resurrection. GOD’S GRACE through Christ is the main cause of human salvation. Whether the rescue of man and his being forgiven is the result of only faith in Christ or what is called the doctrine of grace or the need to its being accompanied with good deeds is controversial among the Catholics and the protestants. The paper intends to study the PURPOSEFULNESS of human LIFE in THE QURAN, THE TORAH and THE BIBLE with a focus on the commonalities and differences.
