Everything happens with Allah’s will and permission

And there is not a thing, but with Us are the stores thereof. And We send it not down except in a known measure. (Quran 15:21)

Hello and i am back. I been waiting on a topic for my blog i can write about anything and everything but topic related to Islam never ceaase to amaze me. So leaving aside all my books and tv shows i decided to write yet another blog in relating to Islam. I been busy with school and bunch of books i been reading that i started feeling guilty for not giving enough time for Islamic knowledge. So here i am going to write about how Everything happens with Allah's will so not blame anything or anyone for it.

In the name of Allah, We praise Him, seek His help and ask for His forgiveness. Whoever Allah guides none can misguide, and whoever He allows to fall astray, none can guide them aright. We bear witness that there is none worthy of worship but Allah Alone, and we bear witness that Muhammad (saws) is His slave-servant and the seal of His Messengers.

Surely We have a free will from which we make our destiny and pathways in life. But without Allah's permission not even a leaf of a tree can fall on the ground. So, we must realize that Allah has His control over this world and no matter what we say or do we cannot change that. Allah knows whats best for us. Sometimes there may be situation we cannot bear to survive or wish there were options to choose from when meeting with a decision making. However, we cannot take even a step farther without Allah's will. Any individual, the rising of that individual and the falling of that individual. All this is Allah’s doing and is in His control.The Devil in contrast invites to the thinking that amass wealth, everything will happen. Everything happens through money. Quran says that everything is happening through Allah.

Moreover, no matter what we say or do, deep down we know we got to be strong because this is all Allah's doing. So through any situation you may face or you have taken yourself in to , the outcome is always in Allah's hand. No matter what we want in life and how we go on to achieve it at the end of day you have to put the trust on Allah that He is the controller. The things you want may not be the best thing for you and Allah knows best. The things you ask for may not come to you so easily because Allah did not permit for it to come just yet. Sometimes we are put in test and trials as well. Throughout all situations we just got to learn to have the faith that Allah is the controller and He will either help us to gain something or destroy something of our lives.
Not even does a grain of sand move on this earth, nor a drop of water falls from the heavens, nor does a leaf move or fall from the trees, nor can one even blink their own eyelids….without the precise Will and Permission of their Lord Creator, Most Exalted, Most Supreme!Thus the natural question which would arise is if everything happens, and indeed it does happen only with the Precise Will and Permission of Allah SubhanWatala then why does the Lord Most Merciful allow or permit evil to take place on this earth?

Allah says in the Holy Quran in Chapter 67 Surah Al Mulk verse 2:
He (Allah) created death and life that He may test you, to see which of you is the best in deeds.
Allah Says in the Holy Quran Chapter 21 Surah Anbiyaa verse 35:
Every soul shall have a taste of death: and We test you by evil and by good (only) by way of trial: to Us must ye return.

Now to make it short ....

Whoever chooses to submit his will to the Will of his Creator, and chooses to live his life in accordance with the guidance of his Creator, passes the test of life and is promised the Eternal Mercy, Grace, and Rewards of Allah Subhanah.And whoever amongst man uses his bestowed intelligence and power of reasoning to do everything else but does not recognize or denies his Supreme Creator, refuses to submit his will to the Will of His Creator, and of his own ‘free will’ chooses to live his life in accordance with any guidance other than that of His Supreme Creator, miserably fails the test of life and will have a severe accounting in the Presence of His All-Mighty and Majestic Lord on an Judgment Day.

Thus, Whenever we see something evil we should keep ourselves away from it. Whenever there is a choice from choosing good over bad, choose good. We should pray that Allah helps us achieve our dreams staying in the correct path. those who wish to do good to continue their good, and those who wish to do evil to continue their evil. Thus both good and evil can and only happen with the Permission and Will of the Lord, but He is Pleased with the doers of good, and He is Displeased with the doers of evil. So if you are on the good path inshaAllah good will happen with you.
Just remember praying to Allah wholeheartedly is a cure to anything and everything. When you are met with a dilemma just know that at the end of the day you have chosen your path and with Allah's permission you will meet the outcome. Khuda Hafiz.
