Fate is the belief that our lives are mapped out, unable to change.
this is not true.
We were created with free will which enables us to direct how our lives will happen.
If we were 'fated' to die at a certain specific time, we would then be able to take any risk without fear of being hurt. And take a gamble that that risk is not the one that will kill us.
(Ecclesiastes 9:11) I returned to see under the sun that the swift do not have the race, nor the mighty ones the battle, nor do the wise also have the food, nor do the understanding ones also have the riches, nor do even those having knowledge have the favor; because time and unforeseen occurrence befall them all.

Fate is fate. Whatever happens was bound to happen and therefore fulfills its own destiny. Think about it for awhile and it will begin to make sense.

Nope.
Fate presupposes a scripted future and that is a ridiculous pre-posture to assume.
I accept limitation of ability due to natural law but I see a future that is filled with the possibilities of multiple options.
Fatalism is the philosophy of doom-sayers. It's a fools game to believe that you have no choices before you. By adopting the fatalist's way of thinking, you'll be saying things like, "... only God knows" and "...Jesus is my Shepard" and similar CRAP-in-a-bag religious nonsense - none of which holds water.

Yes, and in Free Will, and that we are the masters of our own reality. Quite paradoxical, eh?

Muslims, do you think the world hates you?
Well, you're wrong. The deep hatred comes from within you. "Surah 48:29. "Kill the Mushrikun (unbelievers) wherever you find them, and capture them and besiege them, and lie in wait for them in each and every ambush..." Sura 9:5. Also see Sura 9:29
Do you think the world is lying?
Well, you're wrong again. For you have been deceived. "Ishaq:166 “‘You have recited to the people that which I did not bring to you from Allah, and you have said that which He did not say to you.' The Messenger (Muhammad) was grieved and feared Allah greatly. Bukhari, Vol 2, No. 167 "The sun eclipsed and the prophet jumped up terrified that it might be the Hour (of Judgement)"
Muslims do you think allah can be trusted? Wrong again...
