In Islam, the concept of destiny or predestination; that God is in control of events. Although God alone knows what destiny has been chosen for each individual, people also have complete free will. With this comes the idea of responsibility. People are free to choose what they do, but if they wish to follow God's will, they must choose to act responsibly to themselves, others, and the environment.
