Allah, The Glorious, created human beings and granted them the ability to be good if they want, or to be bad if they insist on doing bad. In Quran ( We Have guided the human being to the right path, to chose whether to be grateful or disgraceful) Sura Al-Insan, Verse 3.
Allah (SWT) gives all human beings the option to choose their faith and deeds, after guiding them to the Truth. They will meet the results of their option in this life and hereafter.
No doubt that Allah knows who will be grateful and who will be disgraceful, but His knowledge does not make Him cancel the existence of those who will be bad, or stop their creation, because it will be against justice to punish the sinners to be before committing the sin.
Evil people prove the qualities of good people and with out bad people, it will be difficult to identify the good persons.
Thank you for your question. The problem of evil is an issue that has been discussed extensively in philosophy of religion but unfortunately the issue is primarily framed in a way that emphasises certain Attributes of God based on the Christian tradition. There is also much confusion on the relation of God and time as well as on what knowledge actually is in relation to God.
In summary evil people are such through their own choice and it would be unjust for God to sentence them to eternal punishment without them actually choosing evil.
Thank you for your question. Humans are created with a predisposition for good as well as evil. Their good is in their natural disposition (fitrah) and their evil stems from their commanding self (al-nafs al-ammarah). It is only through the disposition towards evil that the choice to follow what is right has value. Through the purification of the self, humans unveil the truth and through struggle they understand its value and nuances. So it is the Wisdom of God that dictates that humans should be endowed with the potential for good and evil and the choice to choose which path to take.
