Scenario: Your friend comes to you and says “ If I sin, it’s not my fault, Allah has prewritten it in my Qadr!” How will you respond?
In every situation we can choose to do good or do bad. This will determine our qadr which Allah has pre-written. Qadr is not set in stone, humans have the free will to decide what they want to do in every moment. Allah already knows what we are going to choose to do!
