🏵️🏵️🏵️ In Islam, our actions play a significant role in the outcomes we face in life. Recklessness, such as careless driving, is a form of self-caused behavior, which is highlighted in the Quran when it reminds us that we will be held accountable for our deeds. Allah says, "And do not throw yourselves into destruction by your own hands." This verse emphasizes that we must act responsibly and with awareness, as our choices can lead to harmful situations.

Additionally, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) taught us that seeking knowledge and acting wisely are fundamental in making decisions. When someone acts recklessly and faces the consequences, it is a reminder of the importance of self-accountability. Thus, while we may believe in destiny, our actions significantly shape our experiences.

Thank you, Elizabeth, for engaging in this thoughtful discussion. Your insights are much appreciated.
