Why is there any need for Satan in Islam when Allah is the source of evil in Islam?
" That both good and evil are from Allah is clearly stated in the Qur'an al-karim and hadith-i sharifs. All Islamic scholars to date, without exception, said that good and evil are from Allah. The belief that evil is not from Allah is the view held by the followers of Christianity, the Mu'tazilah, and some heretical sects. No Ahl as-Sunnah scholar stated that evil was not from Allah because no scholar can say anything against the Qur'an al-karim and hadith-i sharifs. Humans cannot create their own qadar. As a matter of fact, the Qur'an al-karim says (what means):
(If any good reaches them, they say, “This is from Allah,” but if any evil befalls them, they say, “This happened because of you.” Say: “All things are from Allah.” What is wrong with these people that they do not understand any word?) An-Nisa' 78 "
" The Creator of everything is Allahu ta'ala alone. There is not any other creator. Our nafs (a negative force within humans that prompts them to do evil) cannot create anything. Our nafs is not even an accountable creature unlike humans and genies. When a human dies, his nafs will be annihilated. One of the six fundamentals of faith is to believe that both good and evil are from Allah. A person who does not believe in this cannot be a Muslim. "
Interesting. Allah is both Satan and god of Islam.

The real Islam teach with logic and reason that all goodness come from GOD all evils come from our own hands,that is why GOD ask us to beg from HIM for the protection of the evils of the damn satan.
If it were not so , then what is the use of free will and intellect that GOD equip it to mankind ,while these two faculties are not present in all lowly animals then.

Every religion makes up their own beliefs. Imagine if we included the beliefs from the earlier Gods.

You do know "Allah" is simply the Arabic word for "God", right?
You are openly stating that God is the source of evil.
