Post In what ways, does Islam affect the personal lives of Muslims?

Holy Qur'Aan (Allah’s revelation) teaches us that we were born with the sole purpose of worship Him, and it is the basis that all true worship is Allah-consciousness. Allah is supreme and sovereign. Since the teaching of Islam encompasses all aspects of life and ethics, and Allah-consciousness are encouraged in all human affairs. Islam makes it clear that all human acts are acts of worship if they are undergone for Allah-alone in accordance to His Divine Law. As such, worship in Islam is not limited to religious rituals. The teachings of Islam act as a mercy and a healing for the human soul, and such qualities as humility, sincerity, patience and charity are strongly encouraged. Additionally, Islam condemns pride and self-righteousness, since Almighty God is the only judge of human righteousness. The Islamic view of the nature of man is also realistic and well-balanced. Human beings are not believed to be inherently sinful, but are seen as equally capable of both good and evil. Islam also teaches that faith and action go hand-in-hand. God has given people free-will, and the measure of one's faith is one's deeds and actions. However, human beings have also been created weak and regularly fall into sin. This is the nature of the human being as created by Almighty Allah in His wisdom, and it is not inherently "corrupt" or in need of repair. This is because the path of repentance is always open for all humankinds, and Almighty Allah loves the repentant sinner more than one who does not sin at all. The true balance of an Islamic life is established by having a healthy fear of Him as well as a sincere belief in His infinite mercy. A life without fear of Allah leads to sin and disobedience, while believing that we have sinned so much that He will not possibly forgive us only leads to despair. In light of this, Islam teaches that only the misguided despair of the mercy of their Lord. Additionally, the Holy Qur'Aan which was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) contains a great deal of teachings about the life hereafter and the ‘Day of Judgment’. Due to this, Muslims believe that all human beings will ultimately be judged by Allah for their beliefs and actions in their earthly lives. In judging human beings, Almighty Allah will be both as Merciful and Just, and people will only be as judged for what they were capable of. Suffice it to say that Islam teaches that life is a test, and that all human beings will be accountable before Allah. A sincere belief in the life hereafter is the key to leading a well-balanced life and moral. Otherwise, life is viewed as an end in itself which causes human beings to become more selfish, materialistic, and immoral.

Islam also teaches that true happiness can only be obtained by living a life with full of Allah-consciousness and being satisfied with what Allah has given us. Additionally, true "freedom" is freedom from being controlled by our base, human desires, and being ruled by man-made ideologies. This stands in stark contrast to the view of many people in the modern world, who consider "freedom" to be the ability to satisfy all of our desires without inhibition. The clear and comprehensive guidance of Islam gives human-beings a well-defined purpose and direction towards life. In addition to, for the sake of human-brotherhood, it is well-balanced, and practical teachings are a source of spiritual comfort, guidance, and morality. A direct and clear relationship with Almighty God as well as the sense of purpose and belonging that one feels as a Muslim, frees a person from the many worries of everyday life. In short, the Islamic way of life is pure and wholesome. It builds self-discipline and self-control through regular prayers, fasting, and hence frees the human-beings from superstition and all other sorts of racial, ethnic and national prejudices. By accepting it to live a Allah-conscious life, and realizing that the only thing which distinguishes people in the sight of Allah is their consciousness of Him. Thus, a person's true human-dignity is realized well.

Thanks Dear Surmount... to granting me of such privilege.
@Dear Arbab Danish, sources are what i studied, internet (for jiff aid), the teachings which i own or inherit from my parents, and other seniors, but always undergoes through my modifications... and my 'Moral and Legal Duties' for what purpose you're intending to??? I think the same as a true Muslim attains, or as all CSS aspirants have too.
