The Ruling on Guidance: An Act of Allah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Fatima. This questioner says: Is guidance a creation of Allah by which He guides, or is it one of His attributes?

Answer:
Guidance is an act among the acts of Allah. Allah guides whom He wills,
Indeed, [O Muhammad], you do not guide whom you like, but Allah guides whom He willsإِنَّكَ لَا تَهْدِي مَنْ أَحْبَبْتَ وَلَٰكِنَّ اللَّهَ يَهْدِي مَن يَشَاءُ
[Al-Qasas 28:56]
, so it is an act of Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He).
