If he stands up to support Allah giving and sacrificing for him...

If he stands up to support Allah giving and sacrificing for him, Allah will support him. The Sublime said: [If you make efforts in Allah’s way, He will help you] Muhammad v. 7.

And if man languishes and slacks off, Allah will leave him to his own; if he moves, works and activates himself Allah will enrich him; if he turns lazy and weak Allah will leave him wadding through his laziness and weakness; if he becomes honest Allah will support and lead him to success, if he lies and cheats, Allah will leave him to his lying, cheating, trickery and bluff. All these are part of Allah’s norms, destiny and fate.

Man lives absolutely within the circuit of Allah’s destiny and fate, subject to the inevitability, system and the obligations they (destiny and fate) dictate. Muhammad bin Jacob Al Kulainy narrates: Ameeral Mumenien(A.S.) after the battle of (Saffien) was sitting somewhere in (Al Kuffah), and old man approached him and knelt before his hands saying: (O, Ameeral Mumenien! Is our campaign to (Al Sham) part of Allah’s destiny and fate? Ameerul Mumenien said: Aye Aye old man!

You may never climb a hill or descend into a valley only by the destiny and fate of Allah. The old man said: O Ameerul Mumenien! Allah then will pay back for my efforts. He (A.S.) said: O, old man! Wait a minute, by the name of Allah, He has already rewarded you; during your march during your stay and during your departure, never once were you obliged or compelled to do something.

The old man said: How come you say, “We were not obliged or compelled” while you yourself say, “our march, campaign and departure were part of destiny and fate?” He (A.S.) said: Now, do you think it was an inevitable destiny and a compelling fate?

If it were so, Allah’s reward, punish-ment, commands and prohibitions, as well as His promises of a better end and threats for wicked deeds would have been meaningless; hence the guilty would not have been reproached and the good would not have been praised; rather the guilty would have much better deserved reward than the good; and the good would have much better deserved punishment instead of the guilty.

That is what the brethren of Satan worshipers, the foes of the Beneficent, the party of the devil, those who believe in determinism as well as the Magis say.
