It would be completely meaningless were God, on the one hand, to compel men to do certain things and, on the other, to reward or punish them. It would surely be unjust were the Creator of the world to set us on whatever path He chose, by means of His power and His will, and then to punish us for actions we have committed without any choice on our part.
If the deeds of men are, in reality, the acts of God, all corruption, evil and cruelty must be regarded as His work, whereas His most sacred being is utterly pure of all such corruption and injustice.

Now, as I see it. The above two paragraphs are specifically wrong.
Firstly, life is said to be a "test". We are put in positions to see the outcome.
Secondly, everything comes from Allah.
We are no one to question Him as He knows best, but what do you think?
