16th Ramadan 1438H | No why. No how.

Bismillah.

It is a short verse which many of us overlook, methinks - verse 76-30 as highlighted in this lesson by the Shaykh.

"And you will not so wish, unless Allah so wills.
Indeed, Allah is All-knowing, All-wise."
[As translated by: Mufti Muhammad Taqi Uthmani]

"And you cannot wish anything yourselves, except what Allah wills.
Indeed, Allah is All-knowing, All-wise."
[As translated by: Muhammad Tahir al-Qadri]

"But you will not, unless God wills.
surely God is ever All-knowing, All-wise."
[As translated by: Arthur J. Arberry]

We must be grateful for all the wonderful things which Allah has willed for us. Likewise, we should be patient for the seemingly not so wonderful things which Allah has willed for us. May Allah enable us to practise istislam in the truest form. May we not question why and how. May Allah grant us hidayah and tawfik to be a proper Muslim who submits to the faith and His decree.
Ameen.
