    Prior to a person entering the world until he passes away, Islam has prescribed laws and injunctions through which goodness will be acquired.

    Let alone acts of worship which are a means of earning from the limitless treasures of Allah Ta‘ala, Islam has taught man a way to transform even his worldly activities into acts of ibaadah (worship) through which he will be able to please Allah Ta‘ala and become a source of mercy to mankind.
