Salam,
There is no need brother......the only thing is that we have remove all prejudiced notion from our mind. Man has the freedom of choice - as opposed to the rest of the Universe which is bound and forced to obey Nature’s laws. The Quran says in (90:10): “ And We showed him two paths”. Also, (in 76:3): “We have guided him to the right path. It is upto him now to accept or reject it.” It is further elaborated in 18:29: “Tell that Right (has arrived) from your Preserver. It is upto you now to accept or reject it”.
“If We had wanted (all men to forcibly follow Our way), We would have provided guidance to each single person….. “ (33:13). People have complete freedom of choice to accept or reject the guidance to the right path (18:29). The aim is to develop human qualities and test the use of free will (5:48-49). Men can resolve their differences by willfully and freely choosing the right path. It will NOT be forced upon them (11:118-119). In that case men would have been like stones or animals, NOT human!
Allah says to men: “Do whatever you will” (41:40). Restricted in choice But this (41:40) goes further. It says: “Do whatever you wish. Surely, whatever you do (will bear a result, as it) is watched by Him”. That is: your are free to do whatever you wish but not free to alter the natural result of that action, You can’t follow path A and expect to end up at the other end of path B. (or you can’t swallow a pinch of poison and expect it to behave like a lump of sugar. Every action has a set reaction. You can initiate and trigger a law which then follows its natural course. Allah is the Absolute Power that formulated, and established laws for all things in the universe, exercising absolute control, whether it is in the physical world or in the social life. For instance, salt has a salty taste because Allah wanted it so and made it so. If He had formulated salt to be with a sweet taste, it would have been sweet. Can Allah change the taste of salt from salty to sweet? The answer to that is: Yes,
He can but He won’t, because
He has pledged NOT to make changes in laws He has established according to His will
This gives rise to the argument that a ‘law abiding Allah’ ceases to be the ‘all-powerful Allah’. But this is misleading. One does not cease to have power if one submits to a law voluntarily. For instance, if you are made to, against your will, have a daily 3- mile early morning walk, you are forced. But if you decide to do it, on your own accord, you are free. One who keeps promises and adopts certain principles in life, is not powerless. On the contrary, such a person is termed a man of honor, upholder of principles and reliable. Therefore, Allah doesn’t lose any power by binding himself in His own Laws.
In fact, such a Allah is worthy of being Allah. He is a Allah who can be trusted because His laws are reliable. Despite having the power to do so, He doesn’t break laws.
Wassalam
