Subject: [Masjid Tucson] Submission weekly reminder In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful Peace be upon you, The New Year brings with it resolutions for fresh starts. The new year is also the first day of the rest of our life in Submission to God. It is a good time to examine ourselves and see what we need to to fulfill the purpose of our Creation and make it back to God's kingdom. [67:1] Most exalted is the One in whose hands is all kingship, and He is Omnipotent. The Purpose of Our Life* [67:2] The One who created death and life for the purpose of distinguishing those among you who would do better.* He is the Almighty, the Forgiving. {footnote} *67:2 See the Introduction and Appendix 7 for details of the purpose behind this world.
