The purpose and responsibility indicated the human functions that make its existence become meaningful. This concept is already contained in the Qur’an in many verses and context, but has not been specifically revealed. This study discusses human activity as it explained in the Qur’an. The method used is the library research, where the al-Quran as the main document. In the implementation, the author focused on verses that explicitly show the conception of human deeds and accountability, more patterned on scientific thematic interpretation. Responsibility in the Qur’an is grouped in two categories: First, individual responsibility against him personally, and second, human responsibility to others and the environment (social) in which he lived.
