An act of God----Force Majeure
Meaning :An event or accident due to natural causes for which no human is responsible and which could not have been avoided by planning ahead (a storm, an earthquake, a volcano etc.)
Example:
"The insurance company refused to pay the money because they said that the forest fire was an act of God."
There is also a Latin phrase or clause set out in the contracts called " Force Majeur" which means also an act of God .الظروف القاهرة
I hope such info. will be beneficial to enrich your language vocabulary.
