quran:76:30 –

And you do not will except that Allah wills. Indeed, Allah is ever Knowing and Wise.  

But you will not (tashā’ūna, may also be read yashā’ūna, ‘they will’), choose a way through obedience, unless God wills, this. Assuredly God is ever Knower, of His creatures, Wise, in what He does.

وَمَا تَشَاءُونَ إِلَّا أَنْ يَشَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ كَانَ عَلِيمًا حَكِيمًا  

{وما تشاءون} بالتاء والياء اتخاذ السبيل بالطاعة {إلا أن يشاء الله} ذلك {إن الله كان عليما} بخلقه {حكيما} في فعله.
