Selam aleikum,
I saw this Hadith on a topic about predestination:
> And the Prophet (r) also said,
“The first thing that Allaah created was the Pen and He said to it, ‘Write!’ It (the Pen) asked, ‘O Lord! What shall I write?’ He said, ‘Write the Decree of everything (that will occur) until the Hour is established.“
(Sunan Abu Dawud, vol. 3, p. 1317, no. 4683 and authenticated by al-Albaanee in Sharh al- ‘Aqeedah at-Tahaawiyyah, p. 264 and in as-Silsilah, vol. 1, no. 207)
So it says, write the events until the Day of Jugdement, as i understand it. But I read from two sources, that they call this Eternal Decree, but the phrase „until the Hour“, wouldn’t that be limited to a specific term?
The Sources:

>https://yaqeeninstitute.org/justin-parrott/reconciling-the-divine-decree-and-free-will-in-islam
Does every scholar consider it this way (so it just also contains the events until the Hour and more than that) or did I misunderstood it?
