Imam sheds light on the usbject through his famous work "an expositon on Forty Hadith" as following: 


Hence, come to your senses, seek refuge in God and turn back to Him, for God Almighty is the Compassionate and always seeks for an excuse to shower His mercy.


If you ask for His forgiveness, He will readily forgive you, and will cover up your blemishes and past deeds, so that no one will be able to know about them, and He will make you a man of great distinctions, a paragon of virtues and an image of His Attributes.


He will make your will consummate in the next world as His own Will is executed throughout the cosmos.


It is narrated in a hadith that when the people are placed in the Paradise, a message from the Almighty will be given to them and its purport will be as follows: ‘From the One who is Eternal and Immortal to him who is also eternal and immortal: Whatever I desire to bring into existence I command it to be and it comes into being; from this hour it has been decreed that you also command whatever you desire to bring into existence and your wish would be obeyed.’


Therefore, do not be egocentric, and subordinate your will to the Will of God Almighty; He will then make you an instrument and manifestation of His Will, Imam further explained. 


 He will give you power in the realms under His control, and bestow upon you the capacity to create in the Hereafter.


 (Of course, this is not the same as tafwid, which is a false notion, as proved elsewhere.)
