Actual Intention and Prescribed Intention
Allah (SWT)
has an actual intention in His universe and because that intention is surely
befalling, no one can withstand it. And He (Jalla Jallaloh) also has a prescribed intention in His universe, in the religion that He has established for the
people. In that prescribed intention of Al-Haqq (SWT), He gave man the freedom
to obey or to disobey. He gave them the freedom to follow or to withstand, and
that prescribed intention in what to do and not what to do is what the servants
of Allah withstand. But no one can ever withstand the actual intention in the
deeds that take place in Allah’s universe, For that when you read what Al-Haqq
(SWT) says:
<< And as for Thamud, We showed and made clear to
them the Path of Truth (Islamic Monotheism) through Our Messenger, (i.e. showed
them the way of success), but they preferred blindness to guidance>>
Ayah 17 from Surat Fussilat
Allah (SWT)
showed Thamud the way to guidance and made it clear for them, but they
preferred to disobey and withstood following Allah. Everyone can do the same
through Allah’s will (SWT) by which He has created man free to choose how to
apply the law of Allah (Shar’e Allah) or how to follow the path of sins. Allah
(SWT) being merciful on us has clarified to us the consequences of following
the way of guidance as well as the consequences of following the wrong path. It
is His mercy (Jalla Jallaloh) that He made the key to Heaven and the key to
Hell in our own hands. It is every one’s choice to walk the way of Heaven by
having Faith in Allah (SWT) or to walk the way to Hell by disobeying Allah (SWT).
Allah (TWT)
clarified to us what He is doing to those who take the road of Faith and to
those who take road of sins and infidelity. For every one who reached the road
of Faith and got what Allah has promised him, has got the will of Allah fulfilled
in him. And everyone who chose the road of sins and infidelity and got what
Allah has warned him, has also got the will of Allah fulfilled in him. The faithful
will not get away from Allah’s will and the same with the wrong doer, he will
not get away from Allah’s will. And the judgment in both cases is just, because
man chooses with his free will the way to go, whether it is the way of belief
or the way of sins and that is after Allah (Jalla Jallaloh) has clarified to him
the consequences of taking each way.
