Taqdir /Destiny

Abdullah — Ibn Mas`ud — said, “The Messenger of Allah , the Truthful One, sal Allahu ‘alaihi wa sallam, told us:The creation of anyone of you is gathered for forty days in his mother’s stomach as a Nutfah, then he becomes a clot for a similar period of time, then he becomes a little lump of flesh for a similar length of time. Then the angel is sent to him and he breathes the soul into it, and four things are decreed: his provision, his life-span, his deeds, and whether he will be wretched or blessed. By the One besides Whom there is no other god, one of you may do the deeds of the people of Paradise until there is no more than a forearm’s length between him and it, then the decree will overtake him and he will do the deeds of the people of Hell and thus enter Hell. And a man may do the deeds of the people of Hell until there is no more than a forearm’s length between him and it, then the decree will overtake him and he will do finally the deeds of the people of Paradise and thus enter Paradise.[ Bukhari and Muslim]

FREE WILL AND QADR

To make choice with regard to beliefs and deeds.

Honor bestowed upon mankind

It sets us apart from the angels

Its not absolute ,it has limits.

Ability to think and to reason.

Knowledge of revelation/quran  is out of Allah’s mercy .

Will of humans connected with will of Allah(destiny will happen).

Answerable  to the choices we make, not for which we had no control.

What Allah wills from us is a secret(We are not commanded to do ,which Allah has decreed).

What Allah wants from us,he has commanded to do(which Allah has enjoined upon us).

Qadr/destiny =coming from ALLAH (decreed)

Qadr/destiny =cannot justify the mistakes/sins of an individual(seek forgiveness from Allah).

Qadr/destiny =if it was an excuse ,the kuffar would have use it when they see the punishment,coming of prophets would be meningless.

Qadr/destiny=is not an excuse for sins.

Can predestined change? If yes then how?
As per His Knowledge, He has written all good and bad as they are to happen and as it was to be done. It is not so, that we have to do as He has written, but He has written as we would to do. His writing did not force any person to do anything. This is known as Taqdeer. The Holy Prophet (ﷺ) has said that one who rejects Taqdeer is like the fire worshippers in this nation.

You can now realise that whatever we will do, Allah has knowledge of it. Allah recorded this knowledge on the sacred Tablet and this is Taqdeer.

Mubram‑e‑Haqeeqi: refers to inevitable fate and is not changeable(can not be changed) If the Pious servants of Allah intend to intercede in these issues, then their thoughts are diverted from such issues.

“He(ibrahim) began to protest with us about the nation of Lut”. Allah said  “O Ibraheem! Do not enter this thought, for verily the punishment is to descend upon them.” This is an example of Mubram‑e‑Haqeeqi.

Mu’allaq Mahz: refers to that which is evidently pending the books of the Angels and can be changed? Muallaq items refer to those items of Taqdeer which can be reached by most Awliyah Allah. Through their duas and through their striving, it can be alleviated.

Example- Huzoor Ghaus‑e‑Azam (radi allahutala anhu) says, “I can cause Qaza‑e‑Mubram to be alleviated.” “Verily Dua alleviates Qaza‑e‑Mubram”(hadith)

Mu’allaq Shabi Ba Mubram :refers to that which is not evidently shown to be pending in the books of the Angels, but it is in the Knowledge of Allah, that it is a pending situation (can be changed for example through the duas of Allah’s chosen servants).

Why did Allah didn’t made all humans Muslim?
When ever you get these type of doubt in your mind , recite darud sherif and kalima shahadat . If we keep this in our practice  many types of doubt never come in mind.

He is not asked about what He does but they are asked’. [21/23] So anyone who asks: `Why did Allah do that?’ has gone against a judgement of the Book,

For there are two kinds of knowledge: knowledge which is accessible to created beings, and knowledge which is not accessible to created beings. Denying the knowledge which is accessible is disbelief, and claiming the knowledge which is inaccessible is disbelief.

Belief can only be firm when accessible knowledge is accepted and inaccessible knowledge is not sought after.

When I want to talk to allah I say prayers and when I want that he talk to me I recite quran- Hazrath Ali(ra)
