Similarly, the term \\\"pre-written\\\" is used to describe what is recorded in the Lawḥ Maḥfūẓ (Preserved Tablet) or as a reference to Divine Knowledge. The term \\\"qadar\\\" is also employed to denote destiny or what is inscribed in the Lawḥ or Divine Knowledge. However, to fully comprehend this phrase, it is necessary to consider scholarly discourse.\\n\\nThere are two key points to highlight: Allah's beginning-less knowledge and what is written in the Lawḥ. Scholars assert that what is written in the Lawḥ may be altered through supplication, but Allah's eternal knowledge is unchangeable. This is likely the source of the phrase in question. Thus, the statement \\\"naṣīb is pre-written\\\" is correct when referring to Allah's beginningless knowledge, and \\\"duʿāʾ changes qadar\\\" is valid when indicating what is written in the Lawḥ.\\n\"}]}","tags":[{"_id":"668d9fe30b76658b4c232829","tag":"Worship: Dua","count":109},{"_id":"668d9fdf0b76658b4c2327a6","tag":"Marriage: Pre-Marriage","count":68},{"_id":"668d9fe50b76658b4c232859","tag":"Aqeedah: Allah ﷻ‎","count":66}],"createdOn":"2024-07-09T20:42:25.529Z"}
