Who is in a position to answer that question?
Serious answer:
A) a purported higher being would be able to answer that question, conditionally, should they choose to do so, and should we be willing and able to listen.
B) an ordinary person might be able to answer that question. But how they interpreted what had happened might use other metaphors or concepts.
Certainly we have as a human race been within a hair's breadth of unleashing nuclear war at least once, possibly more than once. How it was averted may be interesting to study.
Footnote: a purported 'higher being' might just be a deceased relative, it doesn't necessarily imply something beyond our conception.
