Is the test we are having unfair? Isn't it evil that so many people go to hell as a result of this test?

Most of us ask this question. As someone believing in God, everyone entertains the question that "isn't it against mercy of God to start this test which results in many people's damnation to hell?".

As the current landscape shows many people will go to hell according to religion. What is the reason behind this fact which justifies such a Merciful God to have us this test? Lets see what this excerpt has to say:

"I f   y o u   a s k ?   The majority of humanity become unbelievers  due to the existence of Satan; they embrace unbelief and suffer harm, despite the sending of prophets. If, according to the rule “The majority has the word,” the majority suffers evil as a result,  then the creation of evil is evil and it may even be said  that the sending of prophets is not a mercy. Isn’t that so?

T h e  A n s w e r : Quantity has no importance in relation to quality. The true majority looks to quality. For example, if a date-palm has a hundred seeds and they are not planted in the earth and watered and so do not undergo a chemical reaction and  manifest  the  struggle  for  life,  they  remain  a  hundred  seeds  worth  virtually nothing.  But if they are watered  and are subject  to the struggle  for life, and then eighty out of the hundred rot due to their faulty make-up, but twenty become fruit- bearing trees, can you say that watering them was evil because most of them rotted? Of course you cannot say that, for the twenty have become twenty thousand. A person who loses eighty and gains twenty thousand suffers no loss, so it cannot be evil.

Another  example:  a  peahen  lays  one  hundred  eggs  and  they  are  worth  five hundred kurush (Turkish currency). If the hen sits on the hundred eggs and eighty go bad and twenty hatch into peacocks, can it be said that the loss was high and the affair, evil; that it was bad to put the broody hen on the eggs and an evil occurred? No, it was not thus, it was good. For the peacock species and egg family lost eighty eggs worth four hundred kurush, but gained twenty peacocks worth eighty liras (Turkish currency).

Thus, through the sending of prophets and the mystery of man’s accountability, and through striving and fighting with satans, in return for the hundreds of thousands of prophets and millions of saints and thousands of millions of purified scholars they have  gained,  who  are  like  the  suns,  moons,  and  stars of the  world  of  humanity, mankind has lost the unbelievers and dissemblers, who are numerous in regard to quantity, insignificant in regard to quality, and like pernicious beasts."

Thus, as this passage indicates, the test we are having produces precious personalities which is more worthy than others who fail in it.

As the illustrations indicate, number does not pose significance when compared to quality.
