What if existence (and "Nature"/etc 's creations as a subset thereof) embodied the negation of Pascal's wager?
edit:
There's a theory in informational physics that a single bit of information can never be destroyed (the "minus-1-th law of thermodynamics").
What if we, as conscious beings, although we were the wisest and smartest and most intelligent and most cogent animals.. barely were able to recognize less than a 1/googleplex'th worth of the information that occurs around us, all the time?
Then what determines whether or not a person succeeds, or is good at making decisions? Basically, whether or not they are good at intersubjective correlation, rather than objective correlation with our environment. This is just to say, if Allah answers your prayers, perhaps is it really you recognizing what it is that others would permit you to use from them with little complaint but to great advantage to you (, inshallah,) ? This would also permit, in some way or another (I imagine), for us to be little more than a self-reflecting (however illusory) random fluctuation of perfect initial conditions.
