Prior to the fall Adam and Eve only knew good. They only knew righteousness. Of what value is there in learning about evil? That doesn't sound like the ideals of a true Muslim.So you would prefer to see Eve as dumb as a cow without the moral sense that comes with the knowledge of good and evil?
Matthew 5:48
Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect
Indeed, and Adam and Eve gave that up when they listened to the serpent. Wouldn't it be nice if we could be restored to that relationship with God that we were created to have with him? Being perfect doesn't come from knowing good AND evil -- this would be subtraction by addition. Perfection comes from knowing (i.e. walking with) God who is good and good alone.
