HARUN YAHYA (ADNAN OKTAR)

decreed would have gone out to their place of death.' So that Allah
might test what is in your breasts and purge what is in your hearts.
Allah knows the contents of your hearts." (Surah Al ‘Imran, 154).
No person is given a choice in this matter, and there is no way to es-
cape it. When the appointed time for death comes, they cannot avoid
the angels of death. As the Qur’an states clearly, each person will die at
his or her destined time and place:

Say: "Death, from which you are fleeing, will certainly catch up
with you. Then you will be returned to the Knower of the
Unseen and the Visible, and He will inform you about what you
did." (Surat al-Jumu`a, 8)
Wherever you are, death will catch up with you, even if you are
in impregnable fortresses… (Surat an-Nisa’, 78)
Khidhr (as) kills a child, about whom he has certain knowledge that
his destiny is to become an unbeliever. He means to prevent the child
from making his family and environment miserable, and drowning in a
sea of sin, and thus takes preventive action.

The people who died in this train wreck probably had never pondered
the meaning of the word "death" up until that point.
