Question 12: And you cannot intend [to remain on the right path] unless the Almighty intends so [according to His laws].22 (26-29) Surah Takwir. I have been watching mizan al hikmah lectures and I think episode 14/15 talks about how you cannot be guided unless God wills it. Is this ayah about not even being able to want to be guided unless God wills it or remaining on the path of guidance under God’s will. Because I remember in the lecture it being mentioned that it’s the former but the translation of Ghamidi sahab has these brackets. If it is the former then how does the first guidance take place- is it just based on God’s knowledge or the persons righteous actions? Original Thread: Discussion 39197
