I think obeying of Allah is our duty. This work is very low for thanking from Allah .Allah gave every thing for us .Allah is very kind .obeying of Allah is for ourselves .we can only with this way show our feelings to Allah. Thanks Allah for every things. Dear Allah, Forgive our sins and help us that we can be a good human. |

I think that obeying God can be simply expressed by following all the God's saying and avoid doing which he said we did not |

Our love for God means that we want to bring him favorable publicity, so that others will come to love him, too. Obedience serves as a witness to God and the gospel.

Why obey God?
simply because, every created thing does it. When you serve the purpose for which you were created you obey God. Sun is made for a purpose, it serves it for the time God has appointed for it. A fly serves its purpose, a tree, a bird, and do on. Humans have a purpose. Being the most intelligent in its vicinity how we think, we do not have a purpose? When we know and fulfill our purpose, we obey God. Hasan Edited by honeto - 08 September 2012 at 3:06pm |

The friends of God will certainly have nothing to fear, nor will they be grieved. Al Quran 10:62

There are ways to obey God, for the first level of believers they should do what Allah has asked and never deviate from that......however for the higher level of belief Allah can be obeyed the way the birf of solomon obeyed Solomon, the way Al-khidr Obeyed Allah, the way Abraham Obeyed Allah by asking Allah to forgive people of Lot, the way Prophet Muhammad will ask for the forgivness of those in Jahannam......To know the higher path of the kingdom of Allah read the article "God's cause"
One Obeys God in whatever he does if he follows the highest path - Increasing the kingdom of Allah ie increasing the score of paradise......and if it be die and not raise ones hand against his own murderer like Abel did. May Allah guide us all |

agreeing with nausheen......i would add, it is something like saying why should we obey our boss in office??
Allah is the ultimate permanent boss....the rest are temporary mirages for this world. and if you want to know why Allah asks us to obey,,,,,then it is simply because he wants us humans to live in harmony with each other and be intelligent beings as a whole |

She showed us some pictures of astronomical sizes of various planets / stars in the universe.
We realize this earth is pretty small in comparison to other planets in our solar system, as well as our sun.
Then she compared the size of our sun with other suns in the galaxy - in comparison the size of our earth looked almost insignificant.
Then she showed stars of other galaxies much bigger than the stars of our own galaxy - it was some experience to know the comparitive sizes, especially in context of the verses which say ALLAH is THE CREATOR of Heavans and Earth.
And ... all in the heavens and earth do not even have the potential to disobey Him except us humans who are given a choice.
Were we to imagine our own sizes in comparison to the biggest stars that exist in this universe - are we significant? If not, then its prepostorous to even think that our worship or obedience is of any merit to Allah.
He has said in the Quran that nothing decreases an iota from His dominion if we obey or disobey.
So, point to ponder, whose is the real benefit in obeying Him?
Also let us be reminded of the hadith of the prophet (sallallahu alaihe wassallam) that no one will enter paradise except through the mercy of Allah. And when he was asked ' not even you O messenger of Allah' he said, not even I unless He covers me entirely in His mercy.
Point to ponder from this is - our deeds (worship and obedience) alone do not gain us a passport to paradise.
Why should we obey Him in the first place? We obey Him because He is our creator, creator of the heavens and earth and all that is in between them.
We obey Him because He controls everything, and we control nothing not even our own breaths that sustain our life. Not even the oxygen in this air that we need to sustain our live, not even the air pressure that is so necessary for us to take in the right amount of oxygen to sustain life!
If we obey Him by choice, the benefit is ours - if we disobey by choice, He can replace us with other people as He wills.
