*The Middle of Sha^baan* النصف من شعبان (Part 2) Know fellow Muslims that the Will of Allah does not change. It does not change for the supplications made or for the charities paid. The Will of Allah, like all His attributes, is eternal without a beginning and everlasting without an end, and it does not change. ▪️If one’s supplication was answered then this means that Allah eternally, without a beginning, willed for that person to ask for such a matter and for one to receive it. And if the supplication of a person was not answered then this means that Allah eternally, without a beginning, did not will for that person to be granted that matter, but still the person gets the reward of making a supplication, because making supplications is a type of worship. *Change occurs to creation. The created things change from one state to another in accordance to the eternal Knowledge and Will of Allah.* Some poor become rich and some rich ones become poor, a healthy person might become ill and a sick person might become cured. All of these changes occur by the eternal Will of Allah; meaning Allah eternally, without a beginning, willed for such a person to change from one state to another. The Will of Allah does not change. ▪️This is supported by the saying [حديث] of the Prophet in which he said that he asked Allah for three matters, He was granted two of these matters and was not granted the third one, and Allah revealed to him that if He willed for something to happen then it will happen and no one will stop it from happening. *The Will of Allah does not change*
