Islamic view:

One of the greatest attributes of Allaah is wisdom, and one of His greatest names is al-Hakeem (the most Wise). It should be noted that He has not created anything in vain; exalted be Allaah far above such a thing. Rather He creates things for great and wise reasons, and for sublime purposes. Those who know them know them and those who do not know them do not know them. Allaah has stated that in His Holy Book, where He says that He has not created mankind in vain, and He has not created the heavens and the earth in vain. Allaah says
(interpretation of the meaning): “Did you think that We had created you in play (without any purpose), and that you would not be brought back to Us?” So Exalted be Allaah, the True King: Laa ilaaha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Lord of the Supreme Throne!” [al-Mu’minoon 23:115, 116] “We created not the heavens and the earth and all that is between them for a (mere) play” [al Anbiya’ 21:16]

Genesis 1: 26-28

26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

28 And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

30 And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

you did not answer the question. We know God creats us for purpose, what is that purpose?

Why Did God Create Us?
Jehovah God created mankind as an expression of his love​—he wanted to share life and happiness with humans. Doubtless, God experienced great joy in fashioning physical creations of all kinds, so that man would be surrounded by beauty and plenty. Above all, humans were to have a meaningful relationship with their Creator, knowing him and communicating with him. They were created to live forever under perfect, peaceful conditions.​—Genesis 3:8, 9; Psalm 37:11, 29 .
Jehovah also assigned humans fulfilling and meaningful work to do. God told the first humans: “Be fruitful and become many and fill the earth and subdue it, and have in subjection the fish of the sea and the flying creatures of the heavens and every living creature that is moving upon the earth.” ( Genesis 1:28 ) Yes, the first couple and their offspring were to transform the whole earth into a paradise of pleasure.
Things did not immediately work out as Jehovah purposed. Nevertheless, God’s original purpose for mankind will be fulfilled.​—
Isaiah 46:9-11; 55:11 .
In the meantime, man’s desire​—his need —​to know God and to have a relationship with him is manifest in his search for purpose. Man was created as an intelligent creature with the desire to explore and understand. And the Bible says that man will go on accumulating satisfying knowledge of God and his creation forever.
One Bible writer expressed man’s purpose this way: “I have seen the occupation that God has given to the sons of mankind in which to be occupied. Everything he has made pretty in its time. Even time indefinite he has put in their heart, that mankind may never find out the work that the true God has made from the start to the finish. I have come to know that there is nothing better for them than to rejoice and to do good during one’s life; and also that every man should eat and indeed drink and see good for all his hard work. It is the gift of God.” ( Ecclesiastes 3:10-13 ) So there will never be an end to what mankind can find out about God and his creation.

thank you bro. If i understand you the purpose of we been created is to "be fruithful,mutiply,replenish the earth subdue it and have dominion over other things God Created"

Are you saying God did not intentionally created us to be worshiping him?

Now that is the primary duty of the creation of mankind. That is, to come to know God his creator and fellowship with him, rule and multiply and take dominion over all the earth and universe. And this we can only do by keeping God's commandments

John 14:15 says "If ye love me, keep my commandment"

A man once asked Jesus the Son of God, which is the great commandment?

Matthew 22:37-40

37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.

38 This is the first and great commandment.

39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

You see that everything still boils down to loving God our creator and keeping his commandments.

Finally..

Ecc.12:13 "Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man."

Bro God bless you. You have explained perfectly but i still have questions to ask from what you wrote

first you said we should love God with all our soul and with all our heart also you said that the whole duties of man is to fear God and keep his commandment.

You then said Jesus said if you love me keep my commandment

my questions now

1 loving God and fearing him is it thesame with worshiping God? Like muslims, they believe that observing salat five times a day is worship and some believed that if they can maintain this they we save some even make sure they leave a dark spot on their forehead as a sign of worshiping God. Loving God and worshiping God is it thesame?

if you love me keep my commandment. And the commandment here is to love our neigbours as we love ourself .Right?

2 Are you saying their is no verse in sbripture where God gives command on how to worship him as Musliims are doing?

He was bored and needed to something to fuel his narcissistic tendencies. He wanted his aśs to be licked so bad, that's how the idea of creating human beings came about.

Bro God bless you. You have explained perfectly but i still have questions to ask from what you wrote

Amen and bless you too.

Loving God and worshiping God is it thesame?

Loving and fearing God is not the same as worshipping God in this case of contrast with the Muslims salat. But rather loving God is to revere him adore him and seek him at all times.

Perfect love will entertain no fear if I may add, the kind of fear we are to have here is the fear of God's majestic power and might as our great judge.

To “fear him” means to stand in awe of him: “Let all the earth FEAR the Lord; let all the inhabitants of the world STAND IN AWE OF HIM!” (Psalm 33:.

To see God in all his glory and then respond to him appropriately. To humble ourselves before him. To adore him.

if you love me keep my commandment. And the commandment here is to love our neigbours as we love ourself .Right?

2 Are you saying their is no verse in sbripture where God gives command on how to worship him as Musliims are doing?

No! I am not in any way saying that. In fact there are numerous verses from the scripture that God demand worship from us, yes the true worship.

Ayomivic:
Let me see if you uderstand the scripture.
Why did God creats Human beings?

Necessity, it is often said, is the mother of invention, and play is the father
and so God, out of necessity, created human beings.
In this scheme of things/play, God created them, as a matter of fact, primarily because of two things

Ayomivic:
Support your answer with Bible verses.

The answer (i.e. two things) is easily corroborated with bible verses
however it will be premature to point the bible verses out

Ayomivic, what was the purpose for inventing the first automobile?
An automobile, no doubt, has many purposes, but there is a fundamental reason behind the thought of needing to create the first automobile.
It is no different for human beings
The first of the two reasons, is repeated again, elsewhere, later or further on, in Genesis, after its first mention, in the first chapter of Genesis
