Question

Assalamualaikum, Does the Quran or any of the hadith explain this?

Answer

Respected Brother-in-Islam

Assalaamu Alaykum Wa Rahmatullaahi Wa Barakaatuhu

Allah Ta'ala mentions in the noble Qur'aan, 'And your Lord creates as He wishes and the choice is His Alone.' (Qasas 68)

In view of the above verse, it is clear that it is Allah Alone Knows the wisdom behind the differences in His creation.

and Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
