Imam Ali (AS) said, He (‘a) was asked about destiny so he said: It is a dark path, so do not traverse it, and it is a deep sea, so do not dive into it, and it is a secret of Allah, the Glorified, so do not trouble yourself with [trying to understand] it.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : وَسُئِلَ ـ عَلَيه السّلامُ ـ عَنِ القَدَرِ؟ فَقالَ: طَريقٌ مُظْلِمٌ فَلا تَسْلُكُوهُ وَ بَحْرٌ عَميقٌ فَلا تَلِجُوهُ وَ سِرُّ اللّهِ سُبْحانَهُ فَلا تَتَكَلَّفُوهُ
