Hello Sir, if we want to teach our children the truth, we must know what is meant by Lord and Lord of the Universe, Creator of Universe and Destructor of the Universe. We must know all His Attributes as informed by Himself. God created fish, animals and others which are different from humans. But for humans God created for a test, a test in this whole life once man or woman grows to become an adult with the God given capacity to judge between right and wrong, good and bad (let us say average 15 years universally). From that poin t onwards everybody is responsible before God Almighty for his or her actions of their life span.

To be successful in this life and the test set by God Himself for all humans, God sent us our teachers in the different periods of human existance on this earch (and in different countries and places speaking and teaching in the language of the local people so that they understood correctly God’s commands and guidance, how to succeed in their life and to get Salvation in the Eternal Life).

These teachers are called as prophets and also Messengers of God Almighty. But here you should note that the animals and birds were not created for the test by God, so there was no question of them learning anything from others like messengers. That is why a chick once it comes out of the egg shell, immediately it shows the essential characters of the mother or the group of animal /bird it belongs to. A chick will know who it’s enemy is and recognise it (the crow or an eagle even if it came to the world only just before a few hours and that too from far off distance while the eagle is still in the sky), similarly the fish start swimming as soon as they come out of the eggs. So there is no need for a teacher to show them how to live their life like. But for man every time he has to be taught how to walk and how to sit etc. And also he and she need guide(s) to tell them how to live their lives. This system is given by God Almighty as in Islam which is the FIRST and the Only Religion of God from Ever. Adam the first Prophet (peace be upon him) was sent on this earth for a test and he taught his family what He learnt from Almighty God Allah. So the Guidance of Allah kept on passed through generations but then Satan (Iblis) was also lying in ambush along with his group (of genies or jinns) to misguide man from Almighty God Allah’s path. So there is the point which breaks your path towards Allah and Success in this life and Eternal Life.
If you are running for olympic race, and someone all of a sudden interferes and breaks your race, how would you feel like? How furious could you be? So God Almighty Allah warned us to be careful of Satan or Iblis (Allah created Iblis as good Jinn from Smokeless fire like all genies but he became Kafir or Disbeliever and Ungrateful to Allah, so Allah cursed Him forever and whoever follows his words by going against Allah’s Commands and Guidance will face Allah’s punishment in the life of Eternity. Here in this world we are here to face the Test of life from God and we will reap the fruits of our actions and life in the Eternal life. This world is like a land given to you by God where in you harvest good or bad fruits or harvest or seeds and you will reap accordingly. God not only gave you life(let us say land) but also showed you how to till it and reap good fruits by His Guidance through His Prophets, Messengers and His Books. The final book is Holy Qur’an. Previous books like Torah, Psalms and Injeel (Gospel) given to Prophets were superceded by Qur’an as per God’s commands. Now everybody has to come to Qur’an if they want to believe in the Truth of God and follow the True commands and Guidance of God. Satan only deceives those who have no guts and courage to face the Truth of Allah and accept it without fear. If you have guts and courage, let not fall to the trap of Satan. Learn today Holy Qur’an. Say that There is no other God and worthy of worship other than Allah which is the basic declaration of all prophets sent by Allah including Jesus and Adam and Finally Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him and all prophets of God Almighty Allah).
This statement and belief of : La ILAHA IL ALLAH is the core point for your success. Allah promised all people to make them enter heaven in the end (if they have unpardoned sins, they will get punishment for that but they will finally get entry into Heaven by Allah after going through their punishment as prescribed by God Allah).

So what a great Benefit in saying La ILAHA IL ALLAH. Whoever else promised you heaven for believing in anything else. Whoever has the right and power to give you Heaven and Hell? Just show me one other god please…..
