Surah 24:26 24:26 [In the nature of things,] corrupt women are for corrupt men, and corrupt men, for corrupt women - just as good women are for good men, and good men, for good women. [Since God is aware that] these are innocent of all that evil tongues may impute to them, [31] forgiveness of sins shall be theirs, and a most excellent sustenance!
Most of Islam follows natures laws and principles: Things that go up must come down. A mass in motion remains in motion unless acted upon by another object or force, and opposites attract.
Yet, in the Surah above Allah (swt) states that only the good will end up paired with the good. When contemplating Mendelian genetics, it is stated that survival of dominant alleles reigns over recessive ones. Nature always finds a way to pair with opposites so as to assure the dominant phenotype (characteristics expressed) always prevails, ensuring survival of the fittest. For example, tall people marrying short people so that the net result is 75% tall progeny or offspring if you will. This is how over time, humans have become taller.
Yet, Allah (swt) says "Good men are for good women". Two homologous recessive alleles uniting (a bad man and a bad woman) almost guarantees the survival of evil.
Does this mean for the world to keep going evil is as necessary to life as good is? Allah (swt) surely is the master engineer and He willed it, so it is and so it will remain. People learn by example, so you would think it would make more sense to have the good pair with the bad so as to ensure the triumph of good over evil.
Did Allah (swt) really intend for evil and good to co-exist and for the battle to never be won but just to continue?
