Is it correct for us to say that the servant has a choice in his actions?

Question:
Is it correct for us to say that the servant has a choice in his actions, or does this lead to the claim that the servant is independent in his actions, and that Allah has no will over them?

Answer:
This questioner did not understand the speech. Our speech from the beginning of the lesson until now is what the poor man understood. We say that the servant has his actions and has a choice. He has a will and desire, but they are limited. They are limited and subordinate to what Allah wills, and to the will of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). It is not an absolute will and desire as the Mu'tazilah and the Qadariyyah say. Rather, it is a will and desire that falls within the will of Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) and is subordinate to it. For this reason, He said: . Yes.
