…Our parents would never or rarely would they fulfill a zidd to punish us…or teach a lesson…would they? Allah’s more merciful to us than our parents. Even if Allah knows before hand that they we will do a zidd for something…He wouldn’t give it to us if He knows it’ll destroy us right? He wouldn’t grant our zidd only to prove that our zidd was wrong… Would He?

I don’t have a problem with your premise or understanding of how ‘zidd’ will Allah would or would not work. I believe and agree with you that if there is a God, HE would be more merciful and kind than our parents.

My problem is with the understanding of predestination.

If Allah only wants good for us, then how come many many would end up in hell?

(Supposing you are wrong about the zidd part and others are right), if Allah has the power to grand our ‘zidd’, isn’t it changing the things He predestined for us?
