Moderator February 12, 2025 at 5:14 amFor one line answer
“The Quranic law of guidance states that Allah guides those who seek the truth with sincerity and strive towards righteousness. (Quran 29:69)”Brief Explanation:
When Allah says in the Quran that “He guides whom He wills and misguides whom He wills” (e.g., Surah Al-Baqarah 2:272, Surah Al-Qasas 28:56) (Your reference is not correct), it reflects His absolute knowledge and justice. However, this does not mean guidance is arbitrary.
-
Allah provides guidance to those who sincerely seek the truth and strive towards righteousness. (Surah Al-Ankabut 29:69: “And those who strive for Us—We will surely guide them to Our ways.”)
-
Those who turn away from the truth and reject divine guidance are left to their own misguidance. (Surah As-Saff 61:5: “But when they deviated, Allah caused their hearts to deviate.”)
In short, Allah’s guidance is available to all (Quran 2:2), but it depends on one’s sincerity, effort, and willingness to follow the right path.

“جسے اللہ ہی نے فتنے میں ڈالنے کا ارادہ کر لیا ہو تو اُسے اللہ کی گرفت سے بچنے کے لیے تم کچھ نہیں کر سکتے”
and
“those are the ones for whom allah doesn’t intend to purify their hearts”

Jo baat ap kehrhay hai us ayat ka chota sa hissa hai woh.Puri ayat yun hai , is ky baad mera previous response dekhay ga. Inshallah baat smjh ajaegi
“اے نبی ﷺ یہ لوگ آپ کے لیے باعث رنج نہ ہوں جو کفر کی راہ میں بہت بھاگ دوڑ کر رہے ہیں ان لوگوں میں سے جو اپنے منہ سے تو کہتے ہیں کہ ہم ایمان رکھتے ہیں مگر ان کے دل ایمان نہیں لائے ہیں اور اسی طرح کے لوگ یہودیوں میں سے بھی ہیں یہ بڑے ہی غور سے سنتے ہیں جھوٹ کو اور یہ سنتے ہیں کچھ اور لوگوں کی خاطر جو آپ کے پاس نہیں آتے وہ کلام کو پھیر دیتے ہیں اس کی جگہ سے اس کا موقع ومحل معیّن ہوجانے کے بعد وہ کہتے ہیں اگر تمہیں یہی (فیصلہ) مل جائے تو قبول کرلینا اور اگر یہ (فیصلہ) نہ ملے تو کنی کترا جانایہ وہ لوگ ہیں کہ جن کے دلوں کو اللہ نے پاک کرنا چاہا ہی نہیں ان کے لیے دنیا میں بھی رسوائی ہے اور آخرت میں بھی ان کے لیے بہت بڑا عذاب ہے

Member February 13, 2025 at 3:39 pmlet me explain where my issue is.
allah said,”اللہ جسے چاہے گمراہ کرے”
now allah do do Gumrah, that’s for sure. now the question is WHEN.
either before a person’s actions or after his actions or he knows about a persons intentions so he distracts him or us there a certain limit

Moderator February 14, 2025 at 1:06 amQuran is clear that innate guidance is given to human upon his/her birth. However, further help arrives when a person is sincere in his/her efforts. if one is not interested, then no help from God.
For your confusion, please put the words in context to understand it. Taking words out of context wont help.
