Except what Allah wills - FATE & DESTINY



CHAPTER FIVE

Except what Allah wills


We have pointed out how the freedom granted by Allah to man is represented in the way man directs the energy created by Allah in his body towards obeying or towards disobeying, And we have mentioned that Allah (SWT) has given man the ultimate freedom to direct that energy towards what he wants so that judgment will be just. At this point we can find some people pausing at the noble verse where Allah says:

<<And We sent not a Messenger except with the language of his people, in order that he might make (The Message) clear for them. Then Allah misleads whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And He is the All-Mighty, the AllWise>>
Ayah 4 from Surat Ibrahim

And in His saying (TWT):

<<Thus Allah leads astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. And none can know the hosts of your Lord but He>>
Ayah 31 from Surat Al-Mudather

And there are a lot of verses in the noble Qur’an that we are going through in this chapter and they all confirm that Allah leads astray whom He wills and guides whom He wills. If that is the truth where the will of Allah (Jalla Jallaloh) is what leads astray or leads to the right path, then how will the judgment be just? And do any of us hold anything in his hands against the divine will of Allah (SWT)?

First, we say that Allah (SWT) has the ultimate power in His universe for all the rulings of this universe are created by Allah (Jalla Jallaloh) and the creature can never control the will of his creator. That is why Al-Haqq (SWT) the creator of the universal laws has breached them for his prophets. He made the fire whose ruling is to burn, cool and peaceful for Ibrahim (PBUH) and He made the sea with its ruling to estetraq, splits for Moses (PBUH) and He gave Eissa (Jesus PBUH) with His own leave the ability to heal those who are born blind, the lepers and to resurrect the dead. Allah gave all those miracles to His prophets to strengthen their proclamation of Allah, but He (Azz wa Jall) did not want to limit the absolute power to his prophets only. For we can see that absolute power every day in watching the weak having victory over the strong, or the discriminated having victory over the compelling, or a powerless person having victory over the powerful.

To be continued....
