First you have to get a very very reliable book of the God to answer. You can not trust the tranlations as the translations coudl be far away and may not convene the true meanings. We know for sure that the current bibles are not in the language of Jesus (Peace be upon him). Ane we know for sure that the God alone can preserve the languages if He likes and wants to do. Teh langauges of Moses and Jesus died many centuries ago. SO which is the book which is survivng the test of the time i.e. it is preserved for cneturies in its original language without a c change of letter or word and htere are no two verrsions of it???? It is only and only Quran.
Second only God can provide you the answer to your most intelligent questions. SO when you have first discovered the book, find out the asnwers, As I have read the Quran, there are answers to yoiur questions in most definite manner and way.

Yes, God has a plan for all of us. Predestination is not a true doctrine, but foreordination is. That is, we have the potential to do great things but we ultimately make our own choices in life. It is a difficult concept for our finite, time-bound minds to comprehend. Many people see God's omniscience as being in direct conflict with the principle of free agency. However, knowledge by God in advance of a person's actions does not limit the free agency of that person.

God has a plan for all of us. Some choose to follow the plan and some choose not to. We all sin. I believe God does call us home when he is ready for us - sometimes to teach those around us something. We do have free will - we can choose to follow the narrow path to righteousness or we can take the side roads and make it harder on ourselves - that's completely our free will. If our heart is sincere God knows this and loves us in spite of being who we are at times - sinners. Everyone sins - everyone. don't let that discourage you. Ask for forgiveness and then let it go.

Yes there is a plan for each of us. A higher calling if you will. And no it does not interfere with freewill because if it did, everyone would be fulfilling their purpose and not running around lost asking what is the meaning of life, and why am I even alive. It is God's wish that you listen to him and find your place in the world but few do it.

Some ministers think this is a training ground here. God wants us to follow but he doesnt force us That way we can choose immortal suffering or immortal gladness...I dont believe in predestination. Freewill is only good for one lifetime..unless you repent and are baptized Then theres another life if ppl are born again

The purpose of life is to receive the the Love of God and the wonderful things that He has planned to share with you and those who love and worship him. No mind can possibly imagine the wonder that God has for those who love him. It is beyond our limited thinking. God created us out of His unlimited love which He wanted to share with us. To receive what he planned for you, you must first believe in him and love him and show your love to him by loving your neighbor.

A Muslim believes that the purpose of life is to worship Allah. Worshipping Allah does not mean we spend our entire lives in constant seclusion and absolute meditation. To worship Allah is to live life according to His commands, not to run away from it. To worship Allah is to know Him, to love Him, to obey His commands, to enforce His laws in every aspect of life, to serve His cause by doing right and shunning evil and to be just to Him, to ourselves and to our fellow human beings.

We all have a plan, we are all predestined. And I have thought about the free will thing.

Mine is to stay as long as I can and die when I'm completely worn out and penniless.
