At the end of the era when modern man claims superiority and originality and denies everything he doesn't understand and thinks he doesn't exist and knows himself as the leader in the field of existence and knowledge, a tiny creature called the corona virus intelligently challenges his entire existence. has drawn With the spread of the corona virus in the world, different approaches have been presented regarding the emergence and emergence of such a dangerous virus in the world, and every thinker has analyzed this new predicament of modern mankind from his own perspective. 
Why the occurrence and spread of Corona and its new strains as well as its unfortunate consequences in the world in the form of the problem of Corona virus is the issue of this article. In this article, from the perspective of the skeptical theism approach, which is one of the answers given to the problem of evil, we will examine how this approach responds to the problem of corona evil, and on the other hand, how the unknownness and special characteristics of this virus can strengthen the claim of skeptical theism?
