"Some things are subject to the free will of man... (and) there are certain things to which man is forced and compelled; such as sleep, death, sickness, decline of power, injuries and misfortunes... But in the choice of good and bad actions he is free, and he commits them according to his own will... Also the inaction, or the movement of man, depends upon the assistance of God... but the choice of good or evil belongs to man himself." (Saq 287- 9) .Some Ans Questions 1908 Page 287 to 9 . (36:2)
