Can it be said that good and evil, death and life, and night and day are created things?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

Everything mentioned is created, as Allah Almighty says: "Allah is the Creator of all things," and "While Allah created you and that which you do," and "Indeed, We have created all things with [due] measure." He also created death, life, night, day, the sun, the moon, good, and evil, in fulfillment of His words: "Who created death and life," and "And it is He who created the night and the day and the sun and the moon," and "And We test you with evil and with good as a trial," and "Say, 'All [things] are from Allah.'" The Hadith of Gabriel (peace be upon him) also confirms belief in divine decree, both its good and its evil.
