Allah’s Hand and the Concept of Testing in Islam

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: If everything is in Allah’s hand why the term test is used? Isn’t it written in my taqdir? Is anything which Allah has left on our hands? Aren’t our good and bad deeds the earning of our hands?

Bismillaah

A: The test is on the individual using his options correctly. Allah Ta`ala has given mankind the ability to choose.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
