Özet
That the power attributed to God in the theologies which have faith in Him is defined as the authority has resulted in an idea that this area of power is infinite. This thought, which is dealt with from the point of view of God's absoluteness, has made the problem of evil, which is the most basic argument of atheists, an inconvenient issue before the theists in terms of functionality of God's power attribute. All people who have faith in God would adopt such a perception that God has absolute attributes in every aspect. So He is omnipotent. The question Then, why doesn't He intervene with the evil? becomes a fundamental problem for both believers and non-believers. Within the framework of the evil problem, this study seeks answers to the discussion of Allah's intervention to the Human acts within the scope of early kalam scholars' thoughts like Mu'tazila, Ashari and Maturidi. Examining the reflection of the absolute power to the universe in the context of the evil problem, it is seen that it acts in the perspective of absolute good God in Mu'tazila's theory of Aslah. At this point, it appears that the Ash'ari do not develop an absolute good God imagination, and they shaped God's relationship with the universe only by His absolute power. Although the Maturidis limit the power of Allah according to the will and desire of human beings within the framework of wise and dependent intervention approach, we can say that they are in a closer line to the Asharis in creating everything.
