لَا مَشِيئَةَ لِلْعِبَادِ إِلَّا مَا شَاءَ لَهُمْ
Servants have no will except what Allah has willed for them.
وَأَفْعَالُ الْعِبَادِ (هِيَ) خَلْقُ اللَّهِ وَكَسْبٌ مِنَ الْعِبَادِ
The actions of servants are created by Allah and acquired by the servants.
How the passages fit: Human volition does not operate as an independent power outside divine will. Yet acts are attributed to servants as acquisition because they act through intention and choice.
Application: Allah is the creator of acts; the servant acquires the act. This distinction avoids both absolute compulsion and the claim of independent human creation.
Limit of inference: Acquisition does not confer independent creative power, and divine creation does not remove human accountability.
