This question can best be answered by speaking about our premortal life with God. All of us are spirit sons and daughters of God begotten in the preexistence. We progressed as far as we could in premortality, and God knew that we could not progress further without the experience of mortality. We would have to leave His presence to gain experience and grow. The whole reason for Earth life is to become more like Heavenly Father.

That is a very good question. He didn't!
Adam and Eve was going to be obedient. They were going to live forever on the earth. But God knew in later periods of time laws would have to be established and sometimes with children the answer is no.
so to establish his right to make laws and say no. Said, "that is my tree don't touch it or you will die." So that they knew what death is the animals grew old and died. So they knew what it meant. They chose to sin. That is where free will come in.
Then their children chose to sin. That was their choice.
But did that stop God's plan? No! Soon now he will destroy the wicked and all those who lived before that was good and obedient and not liar's , murderers, thieves, greedy persons, haughty persons. But ones who felt that obedience was a good thing and didn't question the rightfulness of god's rule would come back in a resurrection. Then the earth will be full of good people. Like Jesus said, who will rule the world.
"the meek will inherit the earth."
He was quoting psalms 37: 9,10,11 and 29 says the earth abidith forever.

Because some will choose to place their faith in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour. This way, and this way only, is how we can glorify God, both now, and eternally.
Our bodies die because of sin. The faithful are forgiven, justified, and sanctified...they have eternal life and inherit the kingdom of God.
The faithless will be found wanting after being judged for their deeds. They will be thrown into the lake of fire for eternity: the second death.
We exist to glorify God the Father. Faith in Jesus is the only way to do this.

God All-Mighty has His reasons. This life is a test, to determine where we are going to live forever after the "Day of Judgement". Everything that we're doing is being recorded in a clear record, which will brought forward.
Allah (God) will judge each and every one of us. I suggest reading the English translation of the Holy Qur'an for true guidance. It's for real!!!

God put us here to live, not die. We all will have a physical death, due to sin and the natural consequences of it, our bodies age. Wasnt meant to be that way, but due to sin it is now. But, when we accept Jesus and live for Him, then we know we wont have spiritual death, as the instant we die, we go to Heaven with God. Only those that reject Him will go to hell, and remember God doesnt do that. When one rejects God, they made that choice for themselves. Everyone knows there is a Bible, and its up to them to study it and KNOW. If they dont, they have noone to blame but themselves. Jesus died for all our sins that we may life lifter eternal with Him. But, we gotta choose it. How can ppl reject such a wonderful offer? But they do, cuz they dont want to give up all the yukkkk. the sin they do. too much pleasure in it. BUt, on judgement day, when its too late, they will know nothing was worth what they gave up for God. Nothing. Choose soon and Choose wisely...

The same reasons we have dogs, cats, or microbes in the fridge. When we find there is nothing left to do because 'we' wiped out the old gods to fuel creation we need pets. Or at the very least, a good excuse to torture lower forms of life. Natural disasters, disease, and reality TV come to mind.

To seek for eternal life which God has written on every man's hearts. God is just a prayer away. Ask Him to show you the truth and He will tell you what you are doing here.

He originally put man and woman on earth to procreate and fill the earth.
