Is Man Free-Will or Determined?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
So I asked: Is a human being given free will, or is he compelled, or is it both?

The Shaykh:
You have understood this through the explanation, but we need to repeat it. A human being is not absolutely compelled, nor is he absolutely given free will; rather, he is both compelled and given free will. Yes.
