Shadee Elmasry – Will vs. Command of Allah

How do you explain the will of Allah versus the Command of Allah?

The command of Allah subhanahu wa taala is the law that he gave us

to do. We have to follow this law. The will of Allah is what he

created in the world, what he willed for the in the world. And

Allah does not have a law. So Allah commanded us, let's say, to

fight a thief who's entering your house. Well, who willed for the

thief to enter your house? Allah did so. Allah's Will, but Allah

commanded you to fight him. That's the law. That's how we look at

these things. Is best for us. At every moment, we remember there is

a will and there's a law. We don't take our law from the will as a

lot of the world today. Well, if it's out there in the world, who's

to resist it? No, we said, Yes, we would resist it if Allah told us

to resist it. We don't take our law from what's out there in the

world. We take our law from the book, from what the Prophet gave

us, simple as that.
