Combining the creation of all things with the writing of destinies and the erasure of what He wills

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh: In His saying, the Exalted, “and He created all things,” they mentioned the determination of things. And in His saying, the Exalted, “in a clear Book,” this means that Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, has written everything. And they mentioned the burden upon the person. How do you reconcile this with His saying, the Exalted, that He creates with Allah things like it? And when the Book appears, this is a special matter of the feelings. Prophet Aamer.

Answer:
In the prohibited matter, just as Allah writes, He erases it. So whatever is mentioned in the etiquette, everything Allah writes, He feels it. So whatever is mentioned in the etiquette, in this is the existence of the address, may Allah be pleased with him.
Allah eliminates what He wills or confirmsيَمْحُو اللَّهُ مَا يَشَاءُ وَيُثْبِتُ
[Ar-Ra'd 13:39]
It was said that this is in the scrolls of the Preservers. The Preservers write down the deeds of the children of Adam, then they raise them to Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He. So Allah erases what He wills from them and establishes what He wills from them, meaning from what is in the scrolls of the Preservers.
This is a statement, and it is not intended to refer to what is written in the Preserved Tablet, but rather to what is in the scrolls of the Preservers, because the Preservers write down everything that issues from the children of Adam. Then when it reaches Allah, Mighty and Majestic, He

what He wills. And it was said that the intended meaning is what is written in the Preserved Tablet. But of what is written in the Preserved Tablet, some is based on a determined cause. When the causes exist, the effect exists, and when the causes do not exist, the effect does not exist. So of the destinies in the Preserved Tablet, there are things Allah has decreed based on causes: if the cause is done, the decreed thing happens, and if it is not done, it does not happen. And Allah is Able over all things. So there is no contradiction between the words of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He; rather, the words of Allah confirm one another. Yes.
