Is man compelled or given free will?

Question:
The questioner: Is it true that we are compelled in the affairs of this world, but given the choice in selecting the path of guidance or misguidance?

Answer:
You are compelled in what Allah decrees for you, such as illness and health, recovery from illness and health, the hardships that befall you, and the narrowness or spaciousness that befalls you; the servant has no say in these. As for the aspect of your actions, you are given the choice; you are given the choice. You commit an act of obedience by your choice and leave it by your choice; you commit a sin by your choice and leave it by your choice. So you perform your actions by your choice; you engage in them by your choice. As for the actions of Allah in you, these are not by your choice; these are necessary, such as illness and health, the comfort of the soul and the anger of the soul, hardship and ease, and so on. Yes.
