Why did Allah create everything? Why does everything that is in the circle exist and exists in the form in which it is?
The heavens, the earth, and everything in between, were created without amusement. Allah has said in His Qur'an that He created everything without amusement. Allah said:
*We did not create heaven and earth and everything in between by having fun. (Quran;21/16)
*I created the genies and humans only for them to worship me. (Quran;51/56)
He created us to worship Him alone and without partners.
*He is the One Who created the heavens and the earth in six days, when His Throne was on the water, in order to test whose deeds would be better. If you say: “You will be resurrected after death”, then the unbelievers will say: “This is nothing but obvious witchcraft!” (Quran; 11/7)
Allah created everything we call the universe to test us. This is not our last assignment. What we evaluate as “good” or “evil” may turn out to be the opposite.
*Blessed is He in Whose Hand is dominion, Who is capable of all things, Who created death and life, to test you and see whose deeds are better. He is the Mighty, the Forgiving. He created families of heaven one above the other. You will not see any inconsistency in the creation of the Merciful. Take another look. Do you see any crack? Then look again, and again, and your gaze will return to you humiliated, weary. (Quran; 67/1-4)
The Qur'an tells us about the essence of creation and how quickly we forget about the wonderful blessings that accompany us every day. Allah clearly describes our attitude in His Scripture:
*When harm touches a person, he calls out to his Lord, turning to Him alone. When He grants him a blessing from Himself, a person forgets the One to whom he called before (or forgets what he called before), and makes others equal with Allah in order to lead others astray from His path. Say, “Take advantage of your unbelief a little! Truly you will be one of the dwellers of the Fire!” (Quran; 39/8)
We forget because we were created to forget. This is part of our test. Will we use only selective memory and see what we have before the Creator, or will we be grateful even when we have difficulties or setbacks in this life?
*When the Lord tests a person, showing him mercy and endowing him with blessings, he says: “My Lord has honored me!”. When He tests him, limiting his food, he says: “My Lord has humiliated me!” (Quran; 89/16-16).
Then Allah made clear to us the reasons for which this is the case:
*But no! But you yourself do not honor the orphan, do not encourage each other to feed the poor, greedily (or completely) devour the inheritance and passionately love wealth. (Quran; 89/17-20)
Allah created us and gave us so much as long as we are so carefree about His Right to be worshiped exclusively and deny the Day of Judgment when we are all questioned about His Generosity, Nobility.
*Oh man! What has led you astray about your Magnanimous Lord, who created you and made your appearance perfect and proportionate? He folded you in the form in which he wished. Oh no! You consider retribution to be a lie. (Quran; 82/6-9)
And how are we going to survey our conditions and environment? And how will we teach others? Will we be considerate of others and be quick to judge or forgive? All these things are part of our test, things that we will be asked about on the Day of Judgment.
In the name of Allah, the Gracious and Merciful!
In their godless lies, the grave-worshipping Sufis have already come close to a direct denial of the Koran; here is one such example:
In this video, Abu Ali al-Ash'ari brazenly lies that the Meccan pagans did not believe in the absolute power of Allah! Say, they considered their idols to be His assistants in matters of creation and domination over the earthly world, which is why they worshiped them. What is this if not openly challenging the sacred verses where Allah tells us:
"If you ask them: "Who created the heavens and the earth and subdued the Sun and the Moon?" - they will surely say: "Allah." How they are turned away from the truth!<...>If you ask them: "Who sends down water from the sky and revives the earth with it after it has died?" - they will surely say: "Allah." Say: "Praise be to Allah!" But most of them do not understand (29:61-63);
"If you ask them, 'Who created the heavens and the earth?' - they will surely say: "Allah." Say: "Praise be to Allah!" But most of them do not know (the Truth)” (31:25);
"If you ask them, 'Who created the heavens and the earth?' - they will surely say: "Allah." Say: "Have you seen those to whom you call instead of Allah? If Allah wants to harm me, how can they avert His harm? Or, if He wants to show me mercy, how can they keep His mercy?" Say: "Allah is sufficient for me. Those who trust in Him alone put their trust" (39:38);
“If you ask them who created them, they will certainly say: “Allah”. How they are turned away from the truth!” (43:87)?
And here is a hadith from Ibn Abbas, which completely refutes these false speculations:
"The polytheists, (pronouncing talbiyah), said:" Here I am in front of You, You have no partner, "and the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: “Woe to you! Enough, enough!", but they said (further): “... except for one partner that belongs to You - You own him and he owns nothing". And they said this, going around the House (of Allah)" (Muslim, 1185).
Sheikh Atiyah bin Muhammad Salim asked a rhetorical question in this regard:
“If he belongs to Allah, and Allah owns him, and he owns nothing, then why do you worship him?” (“Sharhu bulugi-l-maram”, 172/14).
So the Arab idolaters recognized Allah as the only Creator and Lord, and their shirk consisted in the fact that they dedicated various rites of worship to idols! Let us repeat what Sheikh al-Suyuty said about this, whom we have already quoted earlier:
"Their unbelief did not consist in denying the Creator and His divinity, they did not attribute to idols that they create or manage something - like Namrud and his people. On the contrary, they asserted in relation to Allah His divinity and that He is the Creator and Managers, as Allah Almighty said: "If you ask them who created them, they will certainly say:" Allah ""(Quran, 43:87). They were sure only that the idols would intercede for them before Allah, as the Almighty said, narrating about them: “We do not worship them except to bring us as close to Allah as possible.”(Quran, 39:3)" ("at-Ta" zymu wa-l-minnatu fi anna abavayi-r-rasuli fi-l-janna", pp. 44-45).
With the same success, Sufis tomorrow may declare that Maryam was not a native, but the adoptive mother of Isa (peace be upon him), or that Musa never climbed Mount Sinai. Indeed, when Allah wants to punish someone, He deprives him of reason and conscience.
Finally, a simple belief in the existence and dominance of Allah does not at all make a person a Muslim and a monotheist. Even many Hindu authors recognize tawhid in its Sufi understanding, and therefore, they are not polytheists, according to the logic of the same Sufis. Here, for example, is what one of their ideologists, Sithansu Chakravarty, writes:
“Hinduism is a monotheistic religion whose followers believe that God manifests Himself in various forms. A person can worship that of the forms of God that is closest to him, while respecting other forms of worship” (“Hinduism. The Way of Life”, p. 23).
That is why the Sufi definition of monotheism means the actual rejection of Islam. What is the point in studying and observing the various norms of Sharia, if the simple recognition of the existence of our Creator already guarantees a person the path to Paradise? If even prayers addressed to the dead do not harm such a “faith”, then theft, fornication, drunkenness, usury, bribes and other less serious sins will not harm it!

There are two reasons why it is so hard for us to forget someone: 1) We truly believe that this person was our destiny; 2) We're afraid we won't find anyone better. However, we must remember two more things: 1) If someone is our destiny, he will return to our life, no matter how far he went; 2) You can always find someone better, or someone good enough not to forget you.
It is, of course, very painful when you feel that the person you love so much has forgotten you or neglects you. But instead of forcing yourself to forget it, free yourself by remembering it.
How?
Remember him when you cry at night, remember the pain he caused you, remember how you almost suffocated from the tears shed because of him, and remember how you had to hide your eyes swollen from tears under glasses so that no one can see your true feelings.
Remember him on your birthday, remember that he is not with you for a specific reason, that he is happier somewhere else, with someone else. Remember that he wanted to be without you.
Remember him when you're lonely, remember how he once promised not to leave you, but in the end he left you alone, preferring the other.
Remember when you were invited to the wedding how he told you that he was going, but he was late, but at the last minute he turned around and drove in the opposite direction, and you were left alone without a partner among the guests.
Remember when your family asked you about your relationship, and how could you avoid this question if he was around. Remember that he did not want to give your relationship status or even the slightest significance.
Remember him when you smile, because someone appreciates you, but he did not appreciate and it deprived you of a smile. Remember that he decided to make the other smile.
Remember him every time you want to forget him., remember that he does not remember you, and remember that he wants you to forget him.
Remember him when you finally get over your breakup., remember him when you see him and remember him no more.
