The Asylum of Destiny
  img_article

Even if our action was planned much earlier, sometimes that fails. Unexpectedly, some great actions can be achieved without any predetermination. Many things that are awaited with expectation would often lead us into disappointment. Many things that we abandoned disappointedly used to surprise us giving further expectation. We don't have any influence on the control of the earth. It rotates at a speed of 1000mph. Where does it get the energy from? Who is controlling it? Even the birth of man is not on his interest. The color, the character, the parents, the sister and the family that one has got are not availed to him as per his wish or determination. He doesn't have any role in such things. Who has decided the time of his birth to the earth? Who has calculated his age? A lot of things like this remain mystery to human thought. It is here the asylum of destiny comes to help.

 

Allah knows and decides early all small and big matters, and happens in the same way. He knows the past, the present and the future of his creatures. As far as Allah is concerned, there is no question of age limit. He has knowledge of the whole things. This knowledge is the base of fate. Since his knowledge is strong and complete, his decision and fate are ultimate and perfect.


Faith in destiny gives peace to human mind; spreads enthusiasm and excitement. He does not spoil our freedom by telling God's fate. Creating good and bad, and teaching both good and bad sides he gives us freedom - the freedom of choice was given to us. But, he knows who will choose and what to choose. Our duty is that the freedom given to us must be used to select only good with maximum care.


It is on the name of selection that man becomes eligible for punishment or salvation. One who chooses good, but died before performing that, will get the reward of performing that. All actions are considered according to man's mental decision [niyyath]. Allah will not destroy one even though his performance of evil was so high in a particular circumstances; say it, due to yielding to compulsion, or ignorance, or falsehood, or absence of mind. Only deliberate actions are taken into account, and in that case our future luck will be determined as per the use of our intelligence. We are awarded with intelligence in order to select right things, and to avoid evil. We should look at what we select, on the basis of which our future to be decided.
