Abstract
One of the aspects of proving the comprehensiveness of the Holy Quran, in comparison to heavenly books, is its way of explanation on some issues. Theology through comprehensive divine attributes is one of them. The Holy Quran introduces God as a comprehensive attributes which in addition to mercy and divine beauty, includes glory and wrath. Whereas in Christian tradition although the attributes of divine wrath are mentioned but mainly God is known as mercy and benevolence. This has led to numerous doubts especially on the problem of evil. This paper, by a descriptive-analytical approach, attempts to prove the comprehensiveness of the Holy Quran about theology and God’s attributes through the explanation of comprehensiveness of God’s attributes in the Holy Quran and Christianity and its effects on the problem of evil.
