Zia Sheikh – Human Being having a Free Will 02182016

			He could have guided all of you, you
		

			could have all become Muslim.
		

			But he misguides whom he wants and he
		

			guides whom he wants.
		

			So this is something that we need to
		

			understand, that the human being, he has something
		

			which is known as Ikhtiar, a choice.
		

			As for other creations, animals, birds, the sun,
		

			the moon, the mountains, the trees, they have
		

			a procedure that they follow and they are
		

			not allowed to go outside of that procedure.
		

			They are not allowed to go outside of
		

			those norms.
		

			You will not find, for example, that a
		

			cat or a lion is going to eat
		

			vegetables as a diet.
		

			And you will not find, for example, a
		

			cow or a goat that is going to
		

			eat meat for a diet.
		

			They will eat what they are supposed to
		

			eat.
		

			However, the human being, he is given the
		

			full choice to eat haram or halal.
		

			He is given the choice to eat vegetables
		

			or meat.
		

			And from the meat which is halal and
		

			the meat which is haram, he has the
		

			choice to do that.
		

			So the human is actually the only creation,
		

			or you can say the jinn also, that
		

			has the choice of obeying Allah or disobeying
		

			Allah.
