     In the name of Allah The Merciful The Compassionate

Al Salam Alaikum Wa RahamtuAllahi Wa BarakatuHu
May peace be upon you and Allah's Mercy and His Compassion

Destiny

     I pray that all of you are are peaceful and
happy during this blessed month of Ramadhan. May Allah
give you much good, and give you much of His Generous
Blessings.      

     Allah created everything according to destiny.
All the events that occur, from the smallest to the greatest
are written in a clear book. No misfortune can happen on the earth,
nor to ourselves, except that it is already written in a book before
Allah makes it take affect. No misfortune happens except by the
Will of Allah. That is the creation of Allah, the Master and
Controller of the universe. That is something very easy for
Allah.

     This book can be looked at as graph paper. You have
the x and y axis. You could also add another axis or dimension,
z. Add one more axis and dimension, t for time. This graph paper
of this universe can be looked at as Allah's Creation, the vastness
of which spans the whole universe, and over all time. Allah is Mighty,
Able to do whatever He Wills.

     Another way of looking at it is like a simulation on a
computer. Imagine a simulation that goes from one end of the universe
to the other, and runs from the beginning of this creation
(approximately 15 billions years to now by the best estimation)
to the time when the angel Israfeel blows the horn for the end of
this creation. This universe can be looked at as Allah's simulation.
The whole universe runs according to Allah's Program. It is in complete
order following the Laws that Allah has ordained.  

       The command of Allah is faster than a spark. It is faster
than one instance of a person's sight. It is faster than the
threshold of a physiological or psychological response.

     Allah made this universe, and planned out all the events that
occur in this universe in advance. Everything is written in a book.
Allah did not create this universe in randomness or in chaos.
Allah created this universe in the complete Truth and Order.
Allah makes all the events occur for a reason. There are no flaws
in Allah's creation. Allah fits all the different events together like a
perfect puzzle.

     We must always keep the above in mind. People see the outer
things that occur in this world; but Allah certainly made those
things occur, and for a reason. Let us not forget, whenever
something happens, that it is Allah that makes it occur.

     The same way Allah made this creation, Allah will make
a new creation. This new creation will be eternal, Allah has
knowlege of all types of creations. The people that were true,
the ones that believed in Allah and did good deeds,  
in the first creation, will be rewarded by Allah with gardens
of happiness to stay there in happiness forever. The people that
were false, the ones that made associates with Allah and did
evil deeds, will be in the hellfire.

     My dear brothers and sisters, let us remember Allah during
this blessed month that Allah has made for us. Allah has really
favored us by making us inclined to the deen. I pray to Allah
that he Accept from us the best of our actions, and overlook our
faults. Oh Allah, please forgive the believers, and give them
Much of Your Compassion. Oh Allah, give them a good reward in the
afterlife, and save them from the punishment of the fire. Amin.

Asalmu Alaikum Wa RahmatuAllah,

SubhanAllah , its amazing how destiny works. Its funny how one my friends and I were talking about destiny Vs fate last week. And ofcourse, we came to the conclusion that we can not congnitively imagine the intricate, beautiful plans Allah (swt). And sometimes you wonder, that Allah(swt) has planned everything for us, and we know it than why do we still fall into the traps of shaitan.
May Allah(swt) give us all guidance and increase our Imaan and taqwaah.
WaSalam u Alaikum
