Dr. Soroush discusses the issue of suffering and evil in his commentary on the sixth book of the Masnavi Ma'navi. The issue of evil ultimately comes down to the suffering of "living beings." If there are no living beings, suffering is not felt. There are two types of suffering: futile and useless. A person understands the truth better and more deeply when he is defeated and helpless.
