A Query on God Knowing the Result

Earlier archive · · October 7, 2026

Title: A Query on God Knowing the Result Question/Comments: In your response to a question you write ... it does not matter if God knows about the ultimate result of an individual's test or not. What matters is that... I have just one query in this regard and I would request you to please clarify it for me. It matters a lot to me if Allah knows about the ultimate result or not because it is directly related to my beliefs about an All-knowing Allah. The "or not" in your response leaves a possibility that Allah might not know about the ultimate result of an individual's test or ultimate consequences of his action. I just want a clear answer to this very simple question "Does Allah know about the ultimate result of an individual's test or not?" The answer can be as simple as a "YES" or "NO". Wassalam Aasem Pakistan Answer: According to my present understanding, God does indeed know everything whether concerning about the past, the present or the future. There is absolutely no reason to think that there could be anything beyond God's knowledge. Nevertheless, from the perspective of the referred question in which I have given the cited statement, God's knowledge of an individual's results is irrelevant. With fond regards, Moiz Amjad May 7, 2003
