It wouldn't make any sense for God to create the Devil and give him power to do things against himself right? This would point to a creator above and of God and the Devil. Hmmmmmm

Well... a very very long time ago... God was alone in the universe. He can do anything! but at that time.. he had 2 sides to him... Good and evil. Since he could do anything... and since he has all the wisdom in the entire cosmo... he concluded that... Good is good and evil is bad... and so decided to split his personality into half! the good one... he retains so that he could find the meaning of existence and find pure truth... and as for the bad side of him... he created an entity in which he named Satan and put all his bad-ness into satan!
and thus! God is today.. purely almighty and "clean" while he deeply regreted creating a bin to dump all his badness in.... Satan is kinda becoming a handful of trouble by having a mind of his own... since god has given him the part of his mind that is evil.. he created allies... called the devil and also the serpent who tempted eve to eat the apple. and so... the sinning of mankind has began.

Man made all of the gods, even God. The Devil is a christian god, their god of Evil. Noone else worships the Devil except for rebel Christians.

good and evil are words created by technique of the beholder. China will view itself almost as good and could view Thailand as evil. we do not "recognize" that China is evil and Thailand is sweet. no longer something is black and white... each thing is one in all thousands of colorings of gray. Religiously talking, God might want to desire neither, because neither are Hebrews, Arabs, or any of the different ethnic communities recommended by technique of the universal non secular communities. in accordance to the Bible, God in uncomplicated words helped the Hebrews, because they were his chosen human beings. In a mundane sense, without divine intervention in any respect, China might want to in all probability be the victor, inspite of the undeniable fact that it actually relies upon on thousands of variables. It relies upon on the weaponry used, the words of the conflict, the allies and enemies of different countries. China might want to win in a conflict wherein no longer something went horribly incorrect for both area, yet this does no longer happen. diverse issues might want to turn the conflict.

God is great. Such questions require deep perception of religious thoughts. I humbly appeal to you to discuss the question with your religious scholar. Some one will definitely explain the facts to your satisfaction.

Thanks For Your Questions
That is one of the subject that is so clear in Islam and so vivid in other religion, the story as follows
Allah says : " And surely, We created you (your father Adam) and then gave you shape (the noble shape of a human being), then We told the angels, "Prostrate to Adam", and they prostrated, except Iblis (Satan), he refused to be of those who prostrate.
Allah said: "What prevented you (O Iblis) that you did not prostrate, when I commanded you?" Iblis said: "I am better than him (Adam), You created me from fire, and him You created from clay".
(Allah) said: "(O Iblis) get down from this (Paradise), it is not for you to be arrogant here. Get out, for you are of those humiliated and disgraced".
(Iblis) said: "Allow me respite till the Day they are raised up (the Day of Resurrection)".
(Allah) said: "You are of those allowed respite".
(Iblis) said: "Because You have sent me astray, surely I will sit in wait against them (human beings) on Your Straight Path.
Then I will come to them from before them and behind them, from their right and from their left, and You will not find most of them as thankful ones (i.e. they will not be dutiful to You)".
(Allah) said (to Iblis) "Get out from this (Paradise) disgraced and expelled. Whoever of them (mankind) will follow you, then surely I will fill Hell with you all." [Quraan 07 : 11-17]
As you can see from this story here Satan had a choice either to kneel with angels or to refuse kneeling and he choosed not to kneel, thats why he is now "humiliated and disgraced" because of the way he choosed not because God created him like that.
Allah shows us in The Quraan the right way and we have the choice to follow it or not.
