I'm a Muslim and I just found out about this paradox and I'm curious how will Islam answer this because apparently philosophers haven't even found a flawless answer for thousands of years.

The paradox goes like this:

God, he says, either wishes to take away evils, and is unable; or He is able, and is unwilling; or He is neither willing nor able, or He is both willing and able. If He is willing and is unable, He is feeble, which is not in accordance with the character of God; if He is able and unwilling, He is envious, which is equally at variance with God; if He is neither willing nor able, He is both envious and feeble, and therefore not God; if He is both willing and able, which alone is suitable to God, from what source then are evils? Or why does He not remove them?

Before any of you say anything, just keep in mind that I'm not trying to question God in any way. I'm just curious.
