Supplication and Its Effect in Averting the Decree
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Naif from Riyadh asks and says: How is it that supplication averts the decree?
Answer:
It does not avert the decree, but it aligns with the decree. This is because there are things that, if you perform a cause among the causes that Allah has prescribed, Allah will remove them from you. However, if you do not perform the cause, Allah will afflict you with them. So there are things decreed upon causes; if the causes are present, the decree is lifted, but if you do not perform the causes, the decree and destiny occur. Yes.
