The concept of destiny is a fundamental belief in Islam, considered one of the six articles of faith. According to Islamic teachings, a Muslim's faith is incomplete without belief in destiny, which is seen as natural as life itself. The Prophet Muhammad is reported to have said that at birth, an angel writes down a person's fortune, life span, works, and whether they will be miserable or prosperous. This teaching emphasizes that destiny can override a person's actions, as one may work towards paradise but be overtaken by what is written.
