Question:
Once again, we remind the honorable viewers of the program's telephone number, which the producer of this episode will display for anyone who wishes to call the Honorable Shaykh. Honorable Shaykh, this questioner says: Regarding supplication and its impact on the life of the Muslim in our present time, does supplication also change what was written for a person before his creation?
Answer:
The One who decreed the destinies is the One who commanded His supplication, Exalted is He.[Ghafir 40:60] Allah commanded supplication, and He is the One who decreed the destinies. You do not intervene in this matter. You do what you are commanded to do, so supplicate to Allah in your needs and affairs, and do not intervene in whether it contradicts the divine decree or does not contradict it. Yes.
