The Qur’an For All Humanity
The System Established by God
~ 78 ~
Man has been placed in the present world in order
to be put to the test. This test necessarily requires
freedom. That is why man has not been placed
under any compulsion as has been done with the
rest of the universe. He has the option either to
conform to the system of God, or to indulge in
deviations from it. But this freedom applies only to
actions during his lifespan in this world; it does not
apply to the result of his actions. Man’s final lot will
be determined in accordance with the unchangeable
laws of God.
