The Existence of Evil Among Creatures is Just a Temporary Matter to Show the Images of Goodness, Said AIRA Secretary General

     In the 8th episode of his program “Towards a Proper Understanding,” the Secretary-General of the Islamic Research Academy (AIRA), Dr. Nazeer Ayyad, refutes some of the fallacies that atheists adhere to, at present and in the past.

     In this concern, the Secretary-General said that the issue of “the existence of evil" in the world is not new, but rather it is an old one that resonates with the skeptics and atheists everywhere in all ages.

     Ayyad added that the existence of evil in the world reflects the existence of good on the other side. Since there is no meaning for honesty without betrayal, no meaning for success without failure, and no meaning for strength without weakness. The existence of evil among creatures is only temporary until the meanings of goodness are complete.

     The Secretary General also continued, saying that some people see fire as a tool for torment, disregarding that this torment is not intended for itself, but rather an accidental matter, as fire could be used for warming, cooking and lighting, etc. In addition, it is used in industries and other useful matters of life.
