إِنَّا كُلَّ شَيْءٍ خَلَقْنَاهُ بِقَدَرٍ
We have created everything according to a measure.
Destiny encompasses Allah’s prior knowledge and the measured ordering of created things. Human beings do not escape it, but this does not make revealed duties, choice or accountability meaningless.
Divine prior knowledge is not identical to forcing the servant into sin. The servant’s acquisition of an act and Allah’s creation of it are distinct relations.
