Abstract

Serving the creation of God is indeed a fundamental characteristic of humanity. Allah Almighty has bestowed upon human nature the qualities of empathy and compassion. Human beings are the noblest of creatures, and this status is attained through intellect, understanding, and mutual compassion. Since the existence of Prophet Adam (peace be upon him), humanity possesses the potential for both good and evil. However, circumstances and environments amplify or diminish the manifestation of these traits. Service to humanity is essentially an inclination that drives humans to assist others. It involves actions such as lending a helping hand to the fallen, aiding the needy, or facilitating ease for one another, as well as supporting the visually impaired or disabled individuals. 

Due to societal transformations, the agenda of serving humanity is being organized and delineated within a structured framework by various entities including NGOs. Non-Governmental Organizations serve as a platform for humanitarian service, operating globally to sustain their endeavors.
