Q:3- What is the need of religion and its role in human life? (16 Marks)

Introduction:
Religion or Mazhab means the way or path which human being is required to spend its life according to certain laws, the laws which are made up by particular lords, Gods or Allah. However, without Religion this world can not be a peaceful place because it is the essence of religion which provides each an every thing about human life that how to spend life according to concerned laws which are for the betterment of human life.Therefore it can be said that religion is essential need of human life. Because without it, the whole world is meaningless. However, there are diverse religions in the world, and they have many ways of life in order to make this world paradise. But among them, Deen e Islam has an outstanding importance. Because it is complete code of life, which not only teaches about this materialistic world but also teaches the main and prime purpose of this world and also teaches that how to spend our life according to the divine belief.

Religion is a natural need of Human life
As a matter of fact, human needs basic things for living its life, such as food, clothes and shelter in order to fulfill his physical needs. Beside these needs, an other need is required which is an exclusive and the most important need of human life in this world what is called relaxation for human soul and wanting spiritual relax. No doubt in this contemporary world, science has provided nearly each an every thing regarding the comfort of human life. But these are the physical needs what science has been fulfilling since its advancement. However, after getting all the materialistic things i.e, comfortability in contemporary world human is seemed unsatisfied owing to its need of spirituality. Therefore, in this regard, philosophy also what is said science and other sources have done their best in order to tackle this problem but they have not been successful. After the said sources, religion is the rest and best source which makes this world peaceful. History its self is an concrete evidence that religion is natural need of human being.

Religion is a Haman Necessity
Religion provides complete certain laws that how to spend life according to these laws which are made by particular Lord, god, goddess or Allah. Therefore, it is seen in all religion one thing is common which is that the religion teaches that one must has to believe on his/her God/Lord. Besides this, Religion teaches the quality of life, brotherhood, love, disciple, equality, just and other concerned things which are necessary in the human life. Religion teaches that one must has to be confident and does not have to do bad deeds. Religion is the prime source which guides the human life exclusively and teaches that one must has to do good deeds as much as he/she can for the rewarding of his/her Lord/god/goddess/Allah.

Religion is a Universal Truth
No doubt, Religion is a universal truth. Research has shown that when a baby is born, it is not born without religion, because it comes in a house what beliefs on a certain religion going on. Therefore, a baby has to learn its certain religion what is being in the contemporary world in its home particularly. Besides this, it is seen in the history that since the advancement of human life after the stone age human being has been searching its prosperity in many places. But, after doing research in all perspective, such as Sadhos used to go far away in order to provide himself/herself peace and prosperity but what is universal truth that religion is a universal truth, which provides the spirituality of human life like its physical needs.

Necessity and Importance of Religion and its Place in Human life
After discussing it has become crystal clear that religion has an outstanding importance in human life. On the other hand, it can be seen the modern contemporary civilizations which have been suffering from diverse problems. Even their family life nearly have been disturbed. Besides, they have not been getting in touch with certain religion and have been effected adversely. No doubt, the people which are called atheist who have been nearly aware about religion now that without religion it is nearly impossible to live in peace and prosperity. Nonetheless, philosophy and science also have been failed in this regard. After these things, the communism and secular philosophies are also developing their secular ideologies but they have noticed exclusive gestures that the religion is very necessary for human life in order to spend the life and for getting peace mentality and physically to the some extent.

However, the necessity and importance of religion can be summed up exclusively in the following synopsis

1-Religion fulfills the spiritual need and solve the basic problem of human life.
As it is discussed above that beyond the physical needs of human life there are other spiritual need for peace of the human life because it is the peace which makes the human life towards the betterment exclusively.

2-Relgion gives divine power in the time of adversity
As a matter of fact, without religion one can not bear his/her life further owing to some disturbances such as depressed, in certain pain or in love. For instance, there are people in this world who are atheist and do not follow any religion. However, it is seen and are many cases in the history which are witnessed that when an atheist person sees his/her life in certain cases which are very awful and miserable, such as a person who falls in love for anything and when his/her love doesn't fulfill in certain way. He/She has to commit suicide. It is because of the lack of religion's teaching. On the other hand, if a person, particularly who has believe on his religion, no matter what he/she is following his/her concerned religion, can bear awful life such as in time of adversity by mother nature or by any other nature. As what Allah says in Quran: (10:62)

"Now surely as to those who are near Allah, there is no fear for them, nor shall they grieve."

This is the crystal clear and concrete evidence that a person who believe on his/her God, never commit suicide in his/her time of adversity.

Religion Justifies the relationship between human and the Universe
As it has been said in the Quran and also in Hadith that Allah has created this world for the comfort of human life and the main aim of human life is to prayer for his/her ALLAH in order to reach the main place what Allah has said in the Quran and by divine revaluation through the Adam to the last Prophet (SAW). Therefore, it is would certainly be wrong to preach any thing/entity such as moon, sun, or any other thing which is man made. Therefore, it is pretty need to believe and pray only for Almighty ALLAH.

Religion teaches the Human that how to spend his/her life exclusively in this world
It is the religion, if we take Deen e Islam, what is true deen in this world, teaches us the complete code of life, it teaches that one must not has to do bad deeds, because his/her bad deeds shall be counted and will have been punished in the day of judgment. Besides, Islam teaches us that how to love with children and how to respect elders. And it teaches about equality, brotherhood, sincerity, it not only provides the guide about this world but also get aware us for the day of judgment which shall be come life after death what is called the day of judgment (Qayamat). Islam is the best religion which teaches that there is no difference among the people all are the equal, but among good are those who believe on Almighty ALLAH. Almighty Allah says in the Quran:

"O mankind Lo! We have created you from male and female, and have amde you nation, and tribes that you may know one antoher. Lo! the noblest of you, in the sight of Allah is the best conduct. Lo Allah is knower, Aware'". (Surah al Hujraat:13)

Conclusion
To the sum up, it can be said that without religion, human life can not be peaceful and comfort in this world. Religion is the prime need of human life. Religion teaches the human life in all perspective towards the betterment of human life not for this world but for gets prepared for the day of judgment. However, Philosophy, Science have been failed but religion has proven and solved the basic problems of human life through certain divine sources by the Last Prophet (SAW). Nevertheless, beyond the food, clothes and shelter human life has got the spiritual need what is exclusive important in this world and it teaches the human about each an every thing regarding the way of life. In this connection, Islam is the best source and the best deen which provides the complete code of life that how to spend the life according to the Quran and Hadith in order to be winner for this world and in the day of judgement.
