In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

Peace be upon you,

Humans have an innate desire to belong. Yet, most people rarely ask themselves, "To who or what do I really belong?" If the question comes to mind, many individuals first think of family, some group, a clan, a club, some organization, or even a country.

Yet, this very important question is in the Quran.

Say, "To whom belongs the earth and everyone on it, if you know?" (Quran 23:84)

The answer is also in the Quran.

We belong to God (Quran 2:156, 2:256, 4:126, 10:66, 12:101, ...).
