If there is a wall in front, a wall behind, and wherever there is no wall, a veil is placed to cover it, then how can a person see anything? Their condition has become such because they prefer to cling to their ignorant and polytheistic customs. And whatever argument is presented to prove the falsehood of these things, far from pondering over it, they do not even tolerate listening to it. At this point, it is necessary to briefly indicate that adopting means is within the control of a human being; in other words, the beginning of not accepting the truth or choosing the path of rebellion always comes from the human being. Then, whichever path a person chooses, Allah grants him the ability and support for that very path. Then, based on the adoption of these means, the result that ensues is sometimes attributed to Allah, as is the case here, because bringing about results is Allah's work, not the servant's; and sometimes it is attributed to the servant because it was the servant who adopted the means.
