In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

[Quran 44:3] We have sent it down in a blessed night, for we are to warn.
 [44:4] In it (the scripture), every matter of wisdom is clarified.

[Quran 3:190] In the creation of the heavens and the earth, and the alternation of night and day, there are signs for those who possess intelligence.
 [3:191] They remember GOD* while standing, sitting, and on their sides, and they reflect upon the creation of the heavens and the earth: "Our Lord, You did not create all this in vain. Be You glorified. Save us from the retribution of Hell.


Humans use AI, artificial intelligence, to find answers for school and work. But what about answers to eternal questions like: Why were we created? Or what happens after this fleeting life is over?

For such questions we turn to God, the One who created us. The One who is Omniscient, Most Wise. God gives us these answers in the Quran. He tells us we were created to worship Him alone (Quran 51:56).

May we use the intelligence God gave us to worship Him alone.
