Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Does supplication have any effect in averting divine decree?
Answer:
It is part of the divine decree. If Allah decrees that you make a supplication and He responds to it, that is from the decree of Allah (Mighty and Majestic). Allah commanded supplication, and He is the One who decreed and measured the destinies. Despite this, He commanded supplication, so supplication does not conflict with the divine decree. Yes.
