Evilness is merely a perception. What people thing is not right is evil, but again there are people who thinks differently.
A criminal isn't born with a criminal mind, it's mostly our society which makes them so.

Interesting quote i came across a few days ago.
"The problem is not that there is evil in the world. The problem is that there is good. Because otherwise, who would care?"

keep calm and never give up
There is evil because Satan really exist.
Man is also controlled with sinful nature and corrupted by evil.

Evil is the man next to you, when he decides not to be humane anymore and choose to destroy every ounce of love in him.
You need to have a basis in order for you to classify them as evil. So everything should have its opposite to differentiate them. IF there are good peoplt there should be evil.
Its simple when there is positive power the negative power automatically exist to make the balance.
In a same way that to make the balance of things both power exists positive as well as negative, where there is love there is war.
Same as god exists where as evil exists to make the balance of the world.
And we have to decide what we have to do.. to make evil and do bad things and make others suffer from it or to follow god and help others and make our society, country and world peaceful.

Evil must also exist and we must not accept it.
Someone must be evil, but that is not our choice, we must not feel bad others are evil, but we must help each other.

Evil is in the nature of human at birth, so dont ask why there is, but evil can be prohibited by doing good deeds. There is always bad in every good things.
i think The reason there’s evil in the world is not because of God, but because God gave us the freedom to choose. Now the potential for love outweighs the existence of evil, because you see, evil is only going to exist for a short time, but love is going to go on forever. And all of the suffering and all of the death that we see in the world today are the result because man has chosen to make wrong choices.
so what is you clarification on that question ?
I think Because Life on earth cannot ever be a flawless paradise,always there are only two possible alternatives good or bad.The Muslim believes that evil exists, and Afflictions can also help individuals return to the obedience of God. Sometimes it is beyond common sense, because love can make a person become malicious. so what is you clarification on that question ?
There has and always will be evil. The battle for liberty and freedom is eternal and ever lasting. The best we can do is rise each and everyday, fight it back and go on to battle it the next day. Anything less would be a complete disrespect to those who came before us and those who will come after.
Agreed with what you said. But first we need to ask ourselves whether any evil remains within us or not. The first step must be the cleansing of evil from our mind and body. Only after we get ourselves freed from the evil, we can remove the evil from the society. But the second step is not a voluntary process. There will be some evil individuals who can't be reformed.
Evil is fun to fight 
To test the goodness of the people. It will be boring is there is no evil.
Because being evil and doing bad things is the easier path in life. Some people opt for that path and dont think about the consequences. Others see the long term vision that the bad path holds and they veer away from it.
Honestly speaking what young person wouldnt want money, power, and status in society? Evil and bad things generally lead to attaining those 3 things earlier in a life but the only question is at what cost? The cost is usually
your life or putting a massive hindrance on your life. The benefits simply do not justify the means for me.

Evil is existing because they came here to test us. They are the Lord's enemy. They test everyone for us to know what path should we choose. They even tested Jesus before. I believe that they are around for many reasons. They tease us to do bad things because they are happy to destroy us. They know how God loves us so much and they always hinder us from being close to God.

I think the existence of evil is to examine us whether we do what is commanded to us and we avoid to do what is forbidden based on our religion.
As what Einstein said, "cold does not exist, its just the absence of heat, as well as evil, it doesn't exist, its just the absence of God." People do evil things because God is not in them. They know the truth that there is a God, they know the truth that God does not want evil, but they choose to ignore Him, They choose to close their eyes and ears so they can continue to do evil. People know what evil is, they know that what they are doing is evil, but still they choose to do it because God is not with them.
Sometimes I read the news and I feel powerless. There are hundreds of people leaving home to join the radical militant groups every week. What can we even do in the face of such situations? How can peace ever be achieved? It is not clear what our role is in a conflict that in many ways is over and above us.
Yes I know how you feel, I feel the same way too. We can start with a small and simple thing. For example : smile to other people, help them, always be positive to anyone, plant a tree, pray, social service, and the most important thing is... we should change ourself to a better person. You must understand that, a lot of people want to change the world, but only few that want to change themself.
Wouldnt be the world be a pretty boring place to live in if its only consist of goodness
Because for me i would be pretty bored.

I think "boring" is not goodness. So, if there is only goodness in this world, there is no "boring" too.
But you have to admit that if there's no drama that is about a bad guy and a good guy then there's nothing interesting in the story. Try watching a Catholic TV Channel for 24 hours then let's see what happens.
If only goodness in this world, you will be interested and happy all the time ! Hahahahahaha.
