You are not free

 

You are not free
What is the ruling on the comment that some people make when they are advised not to sin, “I am free to do as I wish”?

 

Praise be to Allaah. 

This
is wrong. We say: you are not free to disobey Allaah. If you disobey
Allaah, it means that you are coming out of “enslavement” to Allaah,
as you describe ‘uboodiyah
(total submission to Allaah), and instead you are entering into enslavement
to the Shaytaan and your desires.

 

Shaykh Muhammad ibn Saalih al-‘Uthaymeen
