Personal Purpose

Question:

Asalamoalaikum,

In a recent sohba Maulana Shaykh Nazim explained how to find your special purpose in life i.e. the reason behind your creation. But due to my limited knowledge I didn’t understand this answer. Could you please explain this answer to me? Who does one ask or how to find one’s purpose? Thankyou!

Answer:

audhu billah mina ‘sh-shaytani ‘r-rajeem,

Bismillahi ‘r-Rahmani ‘r-Raheem,

wa `alaykum salam,

I agree with you that this is a huge umbrella of knowledge under which we are trying to find our way. Before coming to this earth and body, on the Day of Promises we agreed to the Lordship of our Creator. Each of us has a unique relationship to that promise that is found by following the Prophet (s) and Awliya.

wa’Allahu a`lam.
