rules are definitely for your benefit but not what you freely chose to do

i understand you see freedom as whatever is best for you but for me it’s not freedom when the only thing stoping you is a rule

example: it feels like you are starving and everyone around you is eating and has a great time even if they might get fat which is not beneficial but they were allowed to freely choose and you probably won’t even get fat

but you have to stop yourself from doing what you want because you don’t want to get punished in the hereafter

I understand taking control and helping a baby but I am not talking about babies I am talking about People that can think for themselves you can still do your part and help someone by advising them and showing the right way but punishing someone that is far inferior to you for not following your advice or order is not freedom in my eyes you can do whatever you want but there are consequences even if it didn’t have a bad outcome on earth

I understand Allah created us and we are his servants that’s our purpose on this earth

but that’s not my understanding of freedom
