Freewill And Worldly Law
Any thoughts on the first paragraph sir?
Actually the entire Surah Yusuf could be quoted here in response. It depicts perfectly how some things happen to make you learn, some to lead to others, some to make you learn a lesson, some to prepare you for another event at another time.
Let’s see some premise to set the proper context for questions. 1. A man X is trying to attack a woman Y, and the woman asks for help from Allah to save her. 2.. Another man Z comes to help the woman Y, and save her from X. 3. The woman Y, thanks Allah for saving her. Now, can we assume that all three people X, Y, and Z exercised their individual free will or did God interfere and sent Z to help Y ? Is the woman Y, justified in thanking Allah for saving her or the credit goes to Z and she should thank him for saving her ?
