In the Name of Allah, the Extremely Merciful, the Bestower of Mercy
«And I did not create the Jinn and Mankind except to worship Me.» [Soorah adh-Dhariyaat (51):56]
Shaykh Maaher al-Qahtaanee, may Allah preserve him, comments:
al-`Ibaadah (Worship) is a comprehensive word, which encompasses all that Allah loves and is pleased with, of both actions and statements.
The verse contains the following:
1.
Proof of tawheed al-uloohiyyah (to single out Allah with all worship): «Except to worship Me.»
2. Proof that jinn exist.
3. The greatest of what Allah has commanded His servants with is at-tawheed.
