[size=2] Destiny is God’s willing and creation of all past and future events in a timeless dimension. God has created the chain of all events that have happened or will ever happen, moment by moment, down to the tiniest detail.
The beginning and ending of everything is set out in this infinite progression in His sight. Everything is over and done with. This means that people have no power or means to make any changes in their destiny.
In order to understand the concept of destiny, you can think of a video cassette. All the scenes in this film, how long each will last, and the beginning and end of the film are all predetermined. It is of course impossible for any actor in the film to step outside it and intervene in it in any way. It is impossible for him to make any deletions, additions or alterations to the film he is in.
This is why expressions such as “cheating fate” or “changing the course of fate” which one hears from time to time, make no sense, as in this example.
A person can spend weeks in a coma and it may seem as if there is no hope that he can be restored to health. Yet his unexpected recovery would neither mean that he had cheated his fate, nor that it had been changed by his doctors. It just reveals that the time determined for him has not yet come. Like everything, this is, too, determined in the sight of God and is part of destiny:
...And no living thing lives long or has its life cut short without that being in a Book. That is easy for God. (Surah Fatir, 11) [/size]

God has given us the ability and chance to choose what we do across our life span.
How I see it is as this; Our destiny is written and throughout our lives we will come to junctions where we must decide which path to choose. It is these paths will will decide how we live our lives until the next junction. Destiny for both paths is written but only the one we choose at that particular time continues.
Destiny is a very difficult topic to really have a talk about but this is how I feel it works.
Allahu Alam
Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu alaihi wassallam)
"Kindness is a mark of faith, and whoever is not kind has no faith."
Sahih Muslim
"The proof of a Muslim's sincerity is, that he pays no heed to that, which is not his business."

Their is no such thing as destiny. We make our own destiny. We have been given the power to make decisions. Allah(SWT) only knows what we are going to decide through his power of knowledge. He never interferes in our decisions unless we seek his help and ask him to correct our path and show us the right path and sincerety has a lot to do with it.
