Nahjul Balagha

Post by samirziz »

I have just started reading this book, its quite interesting to note that the author of this book is a descendant of Musa-kazim.. But wouldnt that make this book biased towards Hazrat Ali.


Also this may not relate to the above, but correct me if i am wrong, isnt our destiny already written? If so, then how come the book quotes Hazrat Ali mentioning " the theory of compulsion, predestination or predetermination of fate is a satanic insinuation...


Now i am confused... any comments would be greatly appreciated.

No our destiny isn`t already written. We choose it. And God will judge us on our choices! It`s too easy to say that everything is written and we can`t change it...

It`s my opinion.

Ya Ali Madaad Betoul,

I dont agree with you.... Often we think we can manage we have choice but its just out thinking that make us believe..... Make a simple wish and go to fulfill it can you actualy do it ! yes If its Allah's will but if Allah doesnt will can you even wish for it.

We have learn managing Time & work that's wht makes us believe we can manage everything actual you manage nothing... can we learn nature of Allah by Books ! NO we can just understand Allah for Time been.
