Destiny takes precedence.

Destiny takes precedence.

The Prophet (Sallallahu 'Alayhi wa Sallam) said:

Man might perform the works of the people of Paradise until only a span of outstretched arms or a cubit separates him from it, then the Book (destiny) takes precedence, and he performs the works of the people of the Fire and thus enters it. Also, man might perform the works of the people of the Fire until only a span of outstretched arms or a cubit separates him from the Fire, but the Book takes precedence and he performs the works of the people of Paradise and thus enters it.

(Fath Al-Bari 6:105)
