If Allah ﷻ Wills, It Happens

BismiLlahi r-Rahmani r-Rahim:

(Qur’ān 18:23-24). ‘Wa Lā Taqūlanna Li-shay’in ‘innī Fā’ilun Dhālika Ghadāan 23 ‘Illā ‘An Yashā’a Allāh’, ‘And never say of anything, “Indeed, I will do that tomorrow,” 23 Except [when adding], “If Allah wills.”.’

When someone wants to do something, it will work out only if Allah ﷻ wants it. If He ﷻ doesn’t want it, even if the whole world strives for it, it won’t work. Nothing happens without His ﷻ order. Therefore, you should say Insha’Allah for everything you are going to do. Insha’Allah means if Allah ﷻ wills, it happens. If He ﷻ doesn’t will, it won’t happen.

People of the present time say “I will do this and that”. They never think that without the will of Allah ﷻ it won’t happen. Many people don’t have Iman anymore anyway. They live by as so-called Muslims and so-called believers. And the rest of the people without Iman don’t think of this at all. They think about what to do, but then they cannot do it, as Allah ﷻ doesn’t want it.

Therefore, if people always keep this in their minds, they won’t be disappointed afterwards. They will say, “We wanted to do this thing. But Allah ﷻ didn’t want it. So it didn’t work out. If He ﷻ wanted, it would have worked out. No need for us to get upset.”

Allah ﷻ is the one who knows. We don’t know anything. People don’t know what is good and what is not good for us. We should ask that Allah ﷻ gives us the good. We ask for something to work out. But when it happens, it may turn out not as good but as bad for us. And what we don’t want may turn out as something good.

Therefore, you should do everything by relying on Allah ‘Azza wa Jalla. And you should always make Dua that goodness comes. May Allah ﷻ want goodness for us insha’Allah. May Allah ﷻ give goodness to all of us and protect us from evil insha’Allah.

Wa min Allah at-Tawfiq. Al-Fatiha.

There are recited Qur’an Khatms from all over the world. Shukr to Allah ﷻ, a lot of Khatms are being made. We dedicate these Khatms firstly to the great soul of our Holy Prophet ﷺ, his Ahlu l-Bayt and Sahabah, the souls of all Anbiya, Awliya, Asfiya and all the Mashayikh, to the souls of our late relatives. For goodness to come and evil to be gone. May the good goals of those who have recited be reached insha’Allah. May they be happy here and hereafter. May they be protected from the evil of Dunya and may Allah ﷻ accept it for them to reach safety insha’Allah.

‘Amin ‘Amin, wa LhamduliLlahi Rabbi l-’Alameen, Al-Fatiha.
