Abstract (EN)

After creating mankind perfectly, Allah endowed them with partial free will and intel-lect. Consequently, humans have the ability to make choices regarding their own lives alongside the ordained fate by divine will. This choice is applicable in all aspects, inc-luding religious practices. With the intellect and partial free will bestowed upon them by Allah, individuals can choose to believe or disbelieve. Even those who believe may commit sin sor strive to distance themselves from wrongdoing. The allure of worldly life, yielding to one's desires or succumbing to temptations, and inherent weaknesses in human nature can lead individuals into sin. The fate of a sinner in the hereafter de-pends on whether they believed or disbelieved. Those who do not believe, by denying their Creator or committing the greatest sin of polytheism, will face eternal damnation in hell if they die without acknowledging the oneness of Allah. Conversely, a believer who sincerely repents for their sins before death will have their sins forgiven. If they die without repentance, their fate in the hereafter is left to Allah's judgment. He may choose to forgive them and admit them directly into paradise, or they may undergo punishment in hell before being admitted to paradise.
