The reason why man exists on earth is recounted by God in the as follows:
He Who created death and life, that He may try which of you is best in deed: and He is the Exalted in Might, Oft-Forgiving. Qur'an 67:2
Verily We created Man from a drop of mingled sperm, in order to try him: So We gave him (the gifts) of hearing and sight. Qur'an 76:2
In the Qur'an, Allah further makes it clear that nothing is purposeless:
We did not create heaven and earth and everything in between them as a game. If We had desired to have some amusement, We could have found it in Our presence, if We would do (such a thing)! Qur'an 29:16-17
God indicates the purpose of man in the following verse:
We made everything on the earth adornment for it so that we could test them to see whose actions are the best. Qur'an, 18:7
In doing so, God expects man to remain His devoted servant all through his life. In other words, the world is a place where those who fear Allah and those who are ungrateful to Allah are distinguished from each other. The good and the evil, the perfect and the flawed are side by side in this "setting". Man is being tested in many ways. In the end, the believers will be separated from the disbelievers and attain the Paradise. In the Qur'an it is described thus:
Do people imagine that they will be left to say, 'We believe,' and will not be tested? We tested those before them so that Allah would know the truthful and would know the liars. Qur'an 29: 2-3.

Death is a result of sin. We were meant to work the earth with our Father for eternity, but when we sinned, we were cursed to feel the sting of death. However, life was created and continues to be created to the glory of God. Every life is another creation that God has so lovingly watched form and anticipates the day when they turn to Him for guidance and salvation.

Guess what? There is actually no such thing as death...it is an illusion.
While this physical incarnation passes, the soul is eternal, always was and always will be and at the "death" of this physical experience, we will return to the dimension of the spiritual, where we may stay for eternity, if we wish, or continue onto another physical incarnation...or even live the same one over again!

THERE is no DEATH (sin, sickness, disease, accidents etc.) in HEAVEN. That's why everybody want's to go there. That stuff is down here, in the here and now, on EARTH and Star System(the CREATION). The Devil became all of that when he did what he did in HEAVEN(rebelled and was kicked-out). Adam let the devil into the CREATION and all of his mess with him, when Adam changed God's(ate of the Tree---committed High Treason). GOD has to allow all of this to go on UNTILL the time of MANKIND's RULE and REIGN over this CREATION is over. It's almost up, if GOD come's back befor the TIME, then HE will be breaking his own Spiritual LAW(HE DECREED that MANKIND could Rule and Reign over it for so many year's) and HE ain't about to BREAK any of HIS LAW's.!!!!!! GOD has to go by HIS OWN LAW's too!!!!!! Hope this helps!!!

have you ever in no way heard of close to-death memories? 2 of my associates and my mom died and met God quickly. One turned right into a genuine creep on the time. It became no longer a thoroughly pleasant journey, yet he replaced his existence in a while. For my mom and different chum it became pleasing and wonderful. death is at the same time as the spirit (soul) leaves the body. era.

God created life, man created death.
To answer the first part, the same reason why people have children.

Well why don't we go on up and ask him! How do we know, if we had the answer to that, I think the point of living would be useless. We'd have no use for God if we had the answer because we'd know just as much as He does.

Death is when we either go to Heaven or Hell- life is the deciding journey where we choose where we go when we die.
