LessonsGenerated Effects, Appointed Lifespan, and ProvisionQuiz

Calling unlawful consumption “provision” does not permit theft, usurpation, or consumption forbidden by religious law. Attribution to Allah as giver concerns existence and receipt; the prohibition concerns the person’s manner of acquiring or consuming it.

Someone may consume another’s property wrongfully. The actual consumption is not denied, yet the act remains sinful and may entail liability toward the rightful owner.

The same distinction appeared in the discussion of killing: divine creation does not turn a prohibited human act into an approved one. Creation and approval are distinct.
