Who can tell it better than our creator Himself? Here is from Surah- Ad-Dhariyaat:
وَمَا خَلَقْتُ الْجِنَّ وَالْإِنسَ إِلَّا لِيَعْبُدُونِ
| Transliteration | Wama khalaqtu aljinna waalinsa illa liyaAAbudooni |
| Abdullah Yusuf Ali | I have only created Jinns and men, that they may serve Me. |
| Mufti Taqi Usmani | I did not create the Jinns and the human beings except for the purpose that they should worship Me. |
| Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall | I created the jinn and humankind only that they might worship Me. |
| Sahih International | And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me. |
