You Don't Necessarily Owe God Anything

Not necessarily unjust exam. Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him said that, rich people will go to hell more than poor people. Because rich people tend to forget God more.

So you may think why I did not born in a rich family so I could get a better life. This is your test. Thank God that he did not put you in a worse position.

I heard a story once. A one-legged man was complaining to God why he did not have two legs like others. Then he saw a man with no legs at all praising God that he gave him the life he leads. So, it's a perspective the way you look into it. Please go through few pages of Quran. I hope your time will not be wasted.

Now we are back to square one. If you are not put in the worst position, that means someone or some other people are put in the worst position. Why should those people thank God?

As I said, the life given by the God is to be thanked, the free will given by God is to be thanked. This is a test. If you believe the 60-70 years life is the end of this enormous creation of the heavens and earth, you will be mistaking. God is testing us and telling us that we should worship him. This life is temporary and the life after this is for forever. 

When you make a machine, you make a manual for it. It is written there how it should be operated, what should not be done with it etc etc. Likewise, God created this complex creation, the human being, and given the commands through prophets in every age like Noah, Moses, Jesus, Muhammad peace be upon them all. They brought the manual for human being as to how the life is to be led. 

Now it's up to you whether you want to go by the manual or not.
