Al-Hadid 57:23

<h2>Everything that affects Mankind, is duly measured and destined</h2><p>Allah reminds of His measuring and deciding the destiny of all things before He created the creation,</p><p>مَآ أَصَابَ مِن مُّصِيبَةٍ فِى الاٌّرْضِ وَلاَ فِى أَنفُسِكُمْ</p><p>(No calamity occurs on the earth nor in yourselves) meaning, `there is nothing that touches you or happens in existence,'</p><p>إِلاَّ فِى كِتَـبٍ مِّن قَبْلِ أَن نَّبْرَأَهَآ</p><p>(but it is inscribed in the Book of Decrees before We bring it into existence.) meaning, `before We created the creation and started life.' Qatadah commented on this Ayah,</p><p>مَآ أَصَابَ مِن مُّصِيبَةٍ فِى الاٌّرْضِ</p><p>(No calamity occurs on the earth) refers to famine, while,</p><p>وَلاَ فِى أَنفُسِكُمْ</p><p>(or nor in yourselves) refers to suffering and diseases." He also said, "We were told that every person who suffers a prick of a thorn, a twisted ankle, or a bleeding vein, has it occur on account of his sins. What Allah forgives is even more." This great, honorable Ayah provides clear evidence to the misguidance of the cursed Qadariyyah sect, who deny Allah's Preordaihnent and His knowledge of everything before it occurs. Imam Ahmad recorded that `Abdullah bin `Amr bin Al-`As said, "I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say,</p><p>«قَدَّرَ اللهُ الْمَقَادِيرَ قَبلَ أَنْ يَخْلُقَ السَّموَاتِ وَالْأَرْضَ بِخَمْسِينَ …

That ye grieve not for the sake of that which hath escaped you, nor yet exult because of that which hath been given. Allah loveth not all prideful boasters,

In order that ye may not despair over matters that pass you by, nor exult over favours bestowed upon you. For Allah loveth not any vainglorious boaster,-

In order that you may not be sad over matters that you fail to get, nor rejoice because of that which has been given to you. And Allah likes not prideful boasters.

That you may not sorrow over what eludes you, nor exult over what He has given you. God does not love the proud snob.
