O, NEGLECTFULS! WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO?!
VERSE NO. 26-29
In a surrounding up of the chapter, Allah reproachfully questions Man,saying:-
``Then where are you going to? Here is a reminder for you all.''
O, Mankind! This is the word of your Creator, your Merciful Creator and Cherisher! It is full of Divine Wisdom and all lessons and guidance. It will direct you to the right way of God; and it is in accordance with human needs. It leads you clearly to the path of truth and forbids you from the path of evil. Why should you then hesitate? Where then will you go? Do you turn your back to this leading bright lamp and go toward darkness?
The ending is a very meaningful verse?-
``And you do not will, except when Allah wills!''
Man is neither obligated, nor completely free, in his deeds. In its technichal term, neither FATALISM, nor INFINITE FREE WILL is correct. The above verses illustrate the mid-way for Man's limitted will. Whatever Man has to use as a means of his decision, such as his wisdom, physical power, mental capacities and faculties, all in all, are from Allah; who does not want a Man to go astray, yet through his Free Will, Man has some responsibility for his actions, that he will have to answer.
