As-Salaam alaikum,
In ayat 23 of Surat Anbiya of the Holy Qur'an, Allah Ta'ala says:--
''La yus'alu anma yaf'alu... He cannot be questioned about what He does.'' (21:23)
As observed by Sayyadi Ibn Arabi, may Allah be Merciful to him, in his Kitab al-Jalal Wa-l-Jamal, this verse/ayat is connected to irresistible force, the plane of Allah's transcendent power, and the establishment of Divine Sovereignty over the world.
When these attributes become fixed in the servant's heart, it is impossible for him/her to seek the reason for an occurrence or to raise any objection to it... the remaining part of the ayat reads: ''wa hum yus'aluun... but they will be questioned..'' Yes, we will be questioned for our acts, because as His creatures and servants, we are dependent and responsible to Allah Ta'ala... that basically we must live life on the planet earth in accordance with the provisions of His Holy Qur'an and the Sunnah of His Last Messenger sent to the Universe.
