[[Divine knowledge]] encompasses all aspects of time, space, and circumstances under which events will occur. This knowledge includes the preparation of prerequisites, causes, and the eventual realization of phenomena. It is referred to as Knowledge-Based decree and predestination. God's foreknowledge of human actions and decisions aligns with human free will, as He is aware of the choices individuals will make through their volition. The outcomes of these choices and their consequences are also within God's knowledge. Thus, divine foreknowledge neither contradicts human freedom nor imposes determinism; instead, it signifies God's comprehensive understanding of the causal and voluntary systems governing the universe.<ref>Khidānī, Laylā, "Rābiṭah-yi Qaḍā wa Qadar bā ʿIlm-i Pīshīn-i Ilāhī wa Jabr wa Ikhtiyār az Dīdgāh-i Ṣadr al-Mutaʾallihīn," Taʾammulāt-i Falsafī (2): 159–160, 1388 SH.</ref>
