Do we have free will or is everything predestined?
a companion asked the Prophet sallallahu alayhi wa sallam well messenger of Allah, what we're doing now? Is it something that Allah has pre determined for us? Or is it something that we do spontaneously? And the Prophet sallallahu Sallam said, it is something that Allah has predestined for you. So the man said, then why should I do anything?

The bottom line is that the concept of predestination as I said in our class, our lecture is one of the
mysteries of a law.

Allah subhanho wa Taala has indeed pre determined everything. A loss predetermination should not affect our actions. A loss other should not affect our Amel. We don't know what is our color. So we assume the best we plow forward, we do what needs to be done. Unless we plant the seeds there will be no fruit and Allah has willed there will be fruit or not.

put our trust in Allah subhana wa
