With the literary beauty of the Quran along with adherents' service, submission, allegiance to God on the front burner, the theodicy isn't really that important in the grand scheme of things.
For us skepticism regarding matters of the Christian faith is, of course, nothing new. The Bible itself mentions many people who were skeptics or who had questions and doubts about such matters. How did Jesus respond to these people who had honest doubts and questions? Did He say they weren't ready to hear it? Did He condemn them or tell them to put away their questions, suppress their doubts, and simply believe? No of course. Jesus lovingly and graciously gave them answers and evidence.
Our kind doesn't have that dilemma, as I've explained to you already in my previous post. Jesus said the one to come after him will show us the full picture. Our kind have the full picture and you don't ergo the dilemma you're having.
Jesus also said to his disciples that he still had plenty to teach but the people weren't ready yet.
