Qaḍāʾ denotes Allah's decision regarding the occurrence of an act. The servant adopts means relating to good or evil, but the result follows Allah's command and determination.
The presence of causes does not make them independent creators of inevitable outcomes. What Allah decides concerning an act is what comes to pass.
This understanding directs the servant toward Allah's power and judgment without abolishing the obligation to adopt appropriate means.
