Let’s discuss frankly! Why to choose Islam as religion. What compels one to convert to Islam or embrace Islam as religion or the fact of life? These and a type of questions have fundamental positioning in Islam to be tackle. And on this is what we gonna talk and try to discover frankly.

Everyone must have to choose something as a purpose of life in any case, by this one can be able to drive one’s life in an organized manner. A confused person cannot live his/her life directed toward a clear direction or crystalize objective. Therefore, to live a life organized and pro purpose, the decision about life and its objective must be clear and decisive.

There can be two possibilities regarding the purpose or objective of life to be led. Firstly, one may have a believe that he/she is not answerable to any kind after the death regarding the do and don’ts of this life or will not face any punishment or reward in behalf of this life after the death. So he/she will be free to live a life as wish.

Secondly, one may have believe that there is a deity whom we are to answerable after this life about how we led a life, whether with the accordance to the instruction of the deity (creator) or without. In this account we shall be rewarded or punished.

So what to choose as purpose of life need to be address affirmation choices, which indeed are not mare choices but the decision to be passed on intellectual bases. And these two options to choose as purpose of life are most serious than any other questions to be answers, because if there is a deity to whom we shall be answerable, and we led a life ignoring that deity, we shall have to face a never ending punishment.

And on this is what Islam invites towards, not mare towards calling some statements from tongue. Therefore, choosing Islam is not passing mare statements but to change to accept a new purpose of life, and organizing this life and actions according to the purpose of life.
