The narration from Imam Ali (AS) that “I recognized Allah (SWT) through
revoking of determination and the breaking of the decisions ( عرفت الله سبحانه بفسخ العزائم ونقض الهمم ) means that one of the clear signs of Allah (SWT) is that the
decisions of people are not always fulfilled or implemented as they decided. Allah (SWT)' decision is The Final.
The human being should never think that he will do what he wants to do
and he will achieve his determination and decisions. Allah (SWT)
creates different situations and circumstances which make many of the
determinations and decisions invalid. This is one of the signs of the
unlimited power of Allah (SWT).
Wassalam.
