~Belief in Qada wal Qdar (Fate and Destiny)~
This pillar of faith includes four parts:
A. That Allah may He be Glorified already Knows what has happened and what will happen. He is also Aware of His servants' situations, sustenance, lifetime, and deeds in addition to other relevant matters that are all very well Known to Him. This is manifested in: "Verily, Allâh is the All-Knower of everything" Quran 9: 115 (At-Taubah).
B. That Allah may He be exalted already recorded whatever He Fated and Decreed until the Day after as in "and all things We have recorded with numbers (as a record) in a Clear Book" Quran 36: 12 (Yâ_Sîn(
C. Faith in Allah's determined Will since whatever He Wills happens and whatever He Does not Will does not take place as explained in "Thus Allâh does what He wills" Quran 3: 40 (Âl-'Imrân).
D. Faith in Allah's Creation of all the existing items (including everything that exists) since there is no Creator but Him and no Lord but Him as reflected in "Such is Allâh, your Lord! Lâ ilâha illa Huwa (none has the right to be worshipped but He), the Creator of all things. So worship Him (Alone), and He is the Wakîl (Trustee, Disposer of affairs, Guardian, etc.) over all things" Quran 6: 102 (Al-An'âm(.
