Does Allah control everything

Salaam all

Does Allah control and decide everyone's fate? Does he determine and dictate the outcome of someone's trials and tribulations?
You'd have to hope not, otherwise they'd be, well... evil.
Can allah change your fate if you pray hard enough?

Yes. Are you going through something?

Yes I am
Somebody please advise me from an Islamic point of view
Will allah change my fate as long as I pray hard and repent? Even though it looks really bad and the world is against me?

Yes of course but he gave us the choice to do things, like life's choices in general, what to study, what to work, your friends, etc....
Some others, not like your birth country, parents, brother and sister...
If you have more questions, just ask don't hesitate.

Allah is (Alkhabir) which means he is the all knowing basically, he created us and perfected us and put us in this world to do good and because he knows what we do and even think before where even born and because he is always with us هو اقرب اليه من حبل الوريد) (he is so near so present even closer to you than you jugular) and I know sometimes its hard to feel that warmth especially when going through hard times but (ازا احب الله عبدا ابتلاه )(when god specially love U he will test you to prove to U that you can do it because (لا يكلف الله نفسا الى وسعها )(Allah doesn't gives you what you cant survive ) and I know sometimes its so tough and overwhelming and we feel like it the end of the world but what's so funny is that Allah has seen this happen to you already and he knows all of your action and reactions to every single minute event and all the thing you're ganna do and has the power to alter it with a simple duaa or prayer from you and he knows that you CAN WITHSTAND those trials and tribulations.
and hey I would love to hear more from you if youre comfortable

6 months ago I made a mistake and went through a trial that would have changed my life and got in trouble with the police. Alhamdulilah I prayed became a namaazee and that issue went away. Life back to normal.

A few weeks later that issue came back but worse even though I had changed my ways. I still pray and will keep praying but it looks like it's getting worse. Inshallah nothing has happened yet and nothing will but is my fate set in stone or if I keep making dua and praying will I come out of this trial with no criminal record and no more trouble?

I pray almost all day every day when I can

Your ultimate fate my rest with God, but your immediate fate is in the hands of your peers.
You don't strike me as islamic

salaams Harris123 I 97 our fate is changeable by duaa and our actions but you have to keep in mind 2 things one about duaa and the other is about the criminal rec situation . about Duaa the moment you make SINCERE duaa to Allah one of 3 things happen 1 either the thing you want by his will happens or 2 Allah will give something even BETTER or 3 he will protect you from something worse that you weren't even considering to happen to you so keep making Duaa and trying to become a better muslim for yourself before anybody HOWEVERR ,SINCERE DUAA doesnt mean crying over your prayer then not doing anything to fix your problem whatever that problem is weather its achieving something so we need to work harder or pulling away from something orr someone that doesnt help us become a better version of ourselves then we need rethink the situation is this person or thing really worth the damage they are causing to me weather thats a bad habit they encourage or if the community im in as a whole doesnt support me becoming a better Muslim or if its something i got so used to doing it became a part of my life here not doing anything to actively change the situation is us lying to our selves and to Allah . Also consider the damage they may be causing to your relationship with others or even your relationship with Allah . the last thing Allah is (العدل )( the just) ultimate and complete justice is what he is , therefore if anybody does good they will be rewarded they do bad they will face consiquences in this life and in the next one people say karrma is a ***** i say Allah is the just and he is always there he will never forget our deeds good and bad
, I dont your whole criminal charge tthing so I cant say but what i suggest is if you did something own up to it and face its consequences although it might be the harder solution on you long term its the healing on then seek forgiveness ,and if your being wrongfully accused then dont worry Allah's justice will prevail
