Question:
Also, this other questioner says: Regarding the saying of Allah the Mighty and Majestic:[Al-Ahzab 33:36] He asks about the meaning of this verse?
Answer:
The meaning of this verse is clear: the default ruling for a command is obligation. If Allah or His Messenger commands something, then obedience is obligatory, and one must hasten to comply with it; he has no choice in the matter, for he is a servant who is commanded. He must carry out the commands of Allah, Glorified and Exalted is He, which He has commanded him to do. Yes.

Also, this other questioner says: Regarding the saying of Allah the Mighty and Majestic:
It is not for a believing man or a believing woman, when Allah and His Messenger have decided a matter, that they should [thereafter] have any choice about their affair. And whoever disobeys Allah and His Messenger has certainly strayed into clear error.
وَمَا كَانَ لِمُؤْمِنٍ وَلَا مُؤْمِنَةٍ إِذَا قَضَى اللَّهُ وَرَسُولُهُ أَمْرًا أَن يَكُونَ لَهُمُ الْخِيَرَةُ مِنْ أَمْرِهِمْ وَمَن يَعْصِ اللَّهَ وَرَسُولَهُ فَقَدْ ضَلَّ ضَلَالًا مُّبِينًاAnswer:
