First off, good luck on finding a purpose in life. I think this is perhaps the hardest task that anyone can have and something that almost everyone struggles with. Personally I don't think that religious pursuits bring fulfillment to people and often times people use it as a substitute to doing actual achievements. Ultimately I believe that the universe is pointless, which shouldn't be viewed as a negative. It means that you can make your life about whatever you want and not worry about whether or not it is pleasing to Allah. If you want to make your life about climbing mountains, or helping people, or intellectually expanding yourself, adding to a field of study, whatever, you can do it. If you make your life about worshiping a God that doesn't exist and not doing a worthwhile activity also, it would be a total waste, but that would be your choice and your prerogative and nobody else's.
Whatever you end up deciding is your purpose in life, pick it and do it as well as you can and good luck.
