Who Do You Worship?

Who Do You Worship?

We were created for one purpose: to worship Allah — to submit our hearts, our actions, and our decisions entirely to Him. 

Worship is not limited to bowing and prostration; it is about obedience. When we obey anything without question — when we allow it to dictate our choices, shape our values, and take priority over Allah’s commands — it becomes our god. 

Sometimes it’s culture. Sometimes it’s family. Sometimes it’s fear of people. Sometimes it’s money. 

But on Judgment Day, Allah says:

“No close friend will ask about a close friend.” (Quran, Al-Ma’arij 70:10)

Even a man will wish to ransom himself with his own child:

“The criminal will wish he could ransom himself… even by sacrificing his own child.”  (Quran, Al-Ma’arij 70:11)

Ask yourself:

 Who do I obey when it’s hard?

 Who do I fear more — people or Allah?

Because on that Day, only Allah will matter.
