Sura 33
Aya 36
36
وَما كانَ لِمُؤمِنٍ وَلا مُؤمِنَةٍ إِذا قَضَى اللَّهُ وَرَسولُهُ أَمرًا أَن يَكونَ لَهُمُ الخِيَرَةُ مِن أَمرِهِم ۗ وَمَن يَعصِ اللَّهَ وَرَسولَهُ فَقَد ضَلَّ ضَلالًا مُبينًا

Yusuf Ali

It is not fitting for a Believer, man or woman, when a matter has been decided by God and His Apostle to have any option about their decision:1 if any one disobeys God and His Apostle, he is indeed on a clearly wrong Path.
  • We must not put our own wisdom in competition with God’s wisdom. God’s decree is often known to us by the logic of facts. We must accept it loyally, and do the best we can to help in our own way to carry it out. We must make our will consonant to the Universal Will.
