One way it can be explained is that supposing it is written for you that you will do some deeds, like fighting or writing. now you can choose good islamic deeds, for example you can fight in the Way of Allah and to protect the weak and oppressed or you can write good islamic articles, etc. or you can choose bad deeds like you can fight on the side of non-muslims or write unislamic or useless things.

There were fighters at the time of the Prophet (SAW). the kufaar fought on the side of the kufaar while the muslims fought for Islam. So while it may have been written for them that they would fight, the people chose whether they fought for Islam or against it.

I, for one, love to write. I used to write stories. the problem was most depicted unislamic culture and even had romance in them. then i read the verse about spreading immorality and that scared me so i stopped writing fiction altogether. But writing is in my nature, so Alhamdulillah now i write islamic stuff, like what i post on here. And I feel that is more fulfilling than the fiction that i used to write.
 
Yeah, i have heard that hadeeth. but i didnt see that it does the "4 words". i thought it was just a story.

Dont you guys have a "strong" feeling that, Allah knows what the next step in a second you are going to do? like, i think of typing a word and Allah knows i was gonna type and put the words?

:D

yes that is true. and it makes you feel good too. like when i have an exam or interview or something & i'm nervious, i think it's all written what will happen, and that helps me a lot. I stop being afraid or nervious, lol.

the fact that muslims believe everything is in Allah's control and already written (predestined) actually helps Muslims overcome fear. I heard in a presentation that Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder cases are a lot less in the Muslim lands than in kafir lands. For example, after a life-threatening event such as war, disease, natural disaster, etc. the kafirs have more cases of PTSD than Muslims.

it does help as in like "thinking twice before you do"

interesting.. :D
 
Greetings and peace be with you Catalzzy;
every individuals has the free will to choose?

Destiny Douglas C Hess

Watch Your Thoughts, For They Become Words,
Choose Your Words, For They Become Actions,
Understand Your Actions, For They Become Habits.
Study Your Habits,
For They Become Your Character,
Develop Your Character, For It Becomes Your Destiny.

Your intentions start from thoughts, then you might start talking about your thoughts and putting them into action. If you repeat these actions they become habits and form your character.

Up to this point you are talking about the present time, do you have good habits, can you change your bad habits, the future is your destiny. Can you see the direction in life that you are travelling along, is it the path you want?

Has all this been set out by God beforehand?

In the spirit of searching for a just and loving God

Eric

We do have the freewill buy whatever you choose Allah already has written it down and knows what decision we may chose. We must keep our intention and heart pure insh'Allah and never let the Shytaan tempt us.
