Qadr - Destiny & Fate in Islam Part 1
A question that has taxed the best minds of all civilizations through the ages: Do we have free will? What IS free will? What is the reality of causation? If God knows what we will do, what is the point? Isn't he controlling our actions? If so, how can he judge us when we are mere puppets?
The positions of the Asharis, Wahhabis, Maturidis and Mu'tazzila are presented with surprising results...
A masterful introduction for anyone interested in Islamic and non-Islamic philosophy, the history of thought or simply the 'Big Questions'.
Sheikh Atabek Shukrov Nasafi is a noted scholar and specialist in Islamic aqeeda and theological sciences. Undertaking his religious studies at first in secret in Uzbekistan while it was part of the USSR, he has gone on to have an eclectic and comprehensive Islamic education all over the Muslim world.Â
Already a scholar when he arrived in the Middle East, he studied in Damascus under such luminaries as Mhmd Adnan Darwish, graduating finally from Al Azhar but only after having studied both in Medina and the wider region, for example under Sh. Uthaymeen (and numerous others).
He is currently based in the Northwest of England where he is the founder of the Avicenna Academy.
