Dr. Zakir Naik Answers Yashma Gill on Free Will
During the Q&A session at the Governor House, Yashma Gill expressed her curiosity about the concept of free will, asking Dr. Zakir Naik, "If Allah has already written our destiny, what role does free will play? Are our actions predetermined, or do we have control over our choices?" Dr. Naik acknowledged that this is a common question in the minds of believers. He explained that although Allah knows the future and what individuals will ultimately decide, humans are given free will to make choices. He clarified, "It is not that Allah forces our actions, but He knows what we will choose." This explanation highlights that while God's knowledge is all-encompassing, human beings bear responsibility for their decisions.
