Taqdir


Taqdīr refers to God's granting of agency, an aspect of Aqidah. In this concept, human beings are granted agency by God, not through their own selves.

Concept

The concept of taqdīr is that God has complete mastery over all creation. It is an integral part of Islamic belief. Muslims typically believe that everything that has happened and everything that will come to pass in the future has been allowed to happen by God.
