Responsibility
Belief in Qada’ & Qadar: Understanding The Concept
taufiq07@hotmail.com
Responsibility: the exercise of free-choice, whether to follow Allah’s commands or go against it, which is the basis of accountability in the Hereafter.
If you are compelled to do something without a choice: you are therefore not responsible nor accountable in that case. Compulsion removes accountability.

o How do we make these choices then?
o By following the Guidance that comes from Allah through His revelation and Prophets.
o Once received, inaction leads to accountability.
o What are the things we have choice and what areas we don’t?
