Q: How does Allah 'guide whom He wills and lead astray whom He wills'…?

A: Allah 'azawajal 'guides' all of His creation by showing them the Truth. Whoever accepts His guidance and enters into Islam, Allah 'guides' them by enabling and assisting them to follow the Straight Path and making faith beloved in their hearts. And whoever chooses to reject Islam and turn away from the path of guidance, Allah leaves them to their own desires and to the shaytaan; and has thereby led them astray - not because Allah wanted misguidance for him all along, but rather as a consequence of his own choice not to follow the truth when it came to him.

وَأَمَّا ثَمُودُ فَهَدَيْنَاهُمْ فَاسْتَحَبُّوا الْعَمَىٰ عَلَى الْهُدَىٰ - 41:17

'And as for Thamud, We 'guided' them, but they preferred blindness over guidance..'

From this we understand that guidance (al-hidaayah) is of two types:

(هداية الدلالة أو الإرشاد)

1 - General guidance which Allah gives to all of humanity by sending them Books and Messengers to show them the Straight Path and make the Truth clear to them.

(هداية التوفيق و المعونة)

2- Specific guidance whereby Allah enables and assists a person to follow the Truth and be steadfast upon it after accepting it, by making faith beloved to them in their heart and making disbelief and sins despised to them and increasing them in guidance.

وَالَّذِينَ اهْتَدَوْا زَادَهُمْ هُدًى وَآتَاهُمْ تَقْوَاهُمْ - 47:17

'And those who are guided - He increases them in guidance and gives them their righteousness.' (Qur'an 47:17)
