God'S Omniscience And Free Will
God knows everything. Can he tell a boy what he will eat tomorrow and will that boy be able to not eat that thing and choose otherwise?

God will not tell such things, it is against the scheme He has initiated.
-
That’s certainly not true. In case of Abu Lahab.
God announced his fate and that meant that Abu Lahab won’t accept islam and be a devoted muslim.

God knows the future but he can’t tell you what you will eat tomorrow. and why is it against his hikmat? because he will need to restrict the free will of human in order to prove himself right? Just like he restricted the free will of Abu lahab to prove his verse right???

How do you know God restricted him?
-
Abu Lahab chose a path for himself. God announced the end of his actions if he continued. It is not that since God announced it thefore he has to meet that fate. Take the example of the children of Israel. They were cursed by God. It is declared that they would never follow the prophet. Still they were asked if they fulfill the terms of the covenant of God, He will fulfil His terms for them. Abu Lahab could have turned around but he chose to carry on.
-
so it means If abulahab had turned around it would’ve proved God wrong. You mean there is a possibility that God can be proven Wrong. His knowledge is not absolute.

Its like;
If i will tell any severely handicapped person that bring this bottle to me…
You will say he can not do that!
Why….its because you know that his condition is like that …
And you are not restricting him to do that…
Similarly if God says he will not choose right path….it will not mean God resticted him to choose true path…rather it means God has knowledge of future,but he is not forcing him to do that.
