If GOd knows all our actions then how come He is not interfering with our free will??

well my apporoach is more scientific theory of relativity says that time is not an absolute quantity but it depends upon frame of references since God is not subject to time so yesterday , today &
tomorrow are un familiar words to God

God gave mankind free will. Starting with Adam and Eve. That is the most significant uniquely human characterstic.
He also bases our eternal salvation of faith in Him. If faith wasn't required by us, our sinful nature would rule over us and Satan would be the victor.
Jesus Christ died for us so that isn't so. But we are required to believe that to be saved from our sin.

GOD said in the Quran " Should not He Who has created know? And he is the Most Kind and Courteous (to His slaves), All-Aware (of everything)" Part 29 chapter 67 verse 14
GOD created us and surely he knows all our actions before we perform them and thus he gave us all the freedom in doing these acts because he has told us through his prophets and messengers what are the good deeds, what will be their reward on the day of judgment and what are the bad deeds and what be their reward on the day of judgment. And this is true Justice.
He also told us if we have true faith in him (in his Oneness) he will help us to do the good deeds and if we don't have faith in him we will follow satan who will leads us to do the bad deeds.
This is really true Justice and kindness from GOD to his Creation.

I share the belief that God is all knowing and has infinite wisdom; collectively, our minds cannot begin to comprehend such vast knowledge and wisdom. But just because He has the ability to know what choices we will make does not mean that we are simply robots controlled by His will. Even Calvinism (within the Christian faith) and Islam, both of which emphasize the belief in predestiantion, also teach that humankind has free will.
Try to visualize it this way:
Each human life experience comprises a infitely vast web, a collection of paths and doorways. At a particular moment, we are (metaphorically) facing a number of different doorways, each that leads to a slightly (or incredibly) different path. We have the freedom to choose which door we will pass through, but each door and each path that lies behind it is all part of God's divine plan. He knows which door we will choose and He knows which path we will follow, but he allows us to choose. And by going through that door and following that path, in the next moment we encounter the same situation; this happens over and over again, in every moment of our life.
I don't want to get too philosophical (perhaps I have already), but just think of it: you chose to ask the question, I chose to take a few moments to answer it in the wee hours of the morning. I could have turned off my computer and gone to bed instead. I could have never read your question. You could have never posted it. Any of an infinite number of choices that I made prior to this moment had an influence on leading me to this place in the now. The same goes for you. But, in the end, I believe that both of us chose our course of action: I do not believe that God made either of us do it, but perhaps He motivated either or both of us (motivation is not the same as control).
Did He know that it would happen this way? My belief in His infinite knowledge leads me to the conclusion that He did. But He allowed us both to make the choice, just as He allows all humans to express their free will.
And, as such, now I am choosing to go to bed.
I hope that my answer offered some small bit of guidance.

God does not need to interfere with our free wills, because he gave us our free will. God is all knowing and all seeing. He knows whats going to happen and what choices we are going to make. But he has given us this privilege... to make the choice.... to choose... I'm a Muslim and i believe this. You can use this choice in a negative way or in a positive way which god... Allah will find pleasing. We all have freedom of choice but if we need help in making the right choices... we only have to ask god to help us... guide our path...

Because God Is Your Teacher. .God doesn't want to force his ways on anyone the choice it ultimately up to you. Everyone Knows Right from wrong and makes choices whether good or bad, on how they live their lives. If you feel that your doing something wrong then chances are you shouldn't be doing it.
