Why Should a Person Search for the True Religion, and Why Should They Follow It?
At the heart of every human being lies a profound existential question: "Why am I here? What is the purpose of my life?" Along with this question comes an innate feeling that there is a higher power that created this universe and governs its laws. From this arises the natural need to search for the true religion—the path that answers these questions and connects man with his Creator.

Why Should a Person Search for the True Religion?
But I must explain to you how all this mistaken idea of denouncing pleasure and praising pain was born and I will give , or avoids pleasure itself, because it.
1. Because the Human Being is a Rational and Responsible Creature
Humans are distinguished from all other beings by their intellect and awareness. This intellect allows them to reflect on their existence and the universe around them. As rational beings, they are responsible for their choices, including the choice of the right path.
"Did you think that We created you in vain and that you would not be returned to Us?" — [Qur’an, Al-Mu’minun: 115]
2. Religion Answers the Big Questions of Existence
Everyone, at some point, asks:
- Who am I?
- Who created me?
- Why do I die?
- What is my fate after death?
Science alone cannot answer these questions. Only true religion explains the greater truth: Who is the Creator? Why did He create us? What awaits us after death?
3. Distinguishing Between Religions is a Rational and Moral Duty
Since there are many religions, not all of them can be true. It's essential for a person to think critically, seek evidence, and use both reason and spiritual insight to distinguish the true from the false.
Why Should a Person Follow the True Religion After Discovering It?
1. Because It is the Way to God's Pleasure
Once a person discovers their Creator, following His guidance is the only way to attain His approval, which is the highest purpose of life.
"And I did not create the jinn and mankind except to worship Me." — [Qur’an, Adh-Dhariyat: 56]
2. Because It Brings Inner Peace and Happiness
True religion connects a person not only to material life but also to a deeper sense of meaning, ethics, and tranquility. Believers are often the most resilient and at peace, even in hardship.
"Indeed, in the remembrance of God do hearts find peace." — [Qur’an, Ar-Ra’d: 28]
3. Because It Organizes Life and Refines Human Behavior
True religion is not just rituals; it offers a comprehensive system for life—how to deal with oneself, family, society, and the environment—grounded in justice, compassion, and balance.
4. Because the Afterlife is Real, and We Must Prepare
If there is life after death and accountability, it’s only rational to prepare. The true religion is our guide through that journey.
"So whoever does an atom's weight of good will see it, and whoever does an atom's weight of evil will see it." — [Qur’an, Az-Zalzalah]

Conclusion
Remaining neutral in matters of religion is not innocent neutrality; it's a position with consequences. Searching for the true religion is a rational, moral, and spiritual obligation, and following it is the way to inner peace and eternal salvation.
Time is passing, life is short, and destiny is inevitable—so let’s begin this journey with sincerity and courage before the time comes when it is said:
"They return to God and say: Woe to us! This is what the Most Merciful had promised, and the messengers told the truth."
