Lets make everything clear. If you are a muslim and you know your Qur'an, then you will realise that Salvation in Islam is about Mohammed and not just about Allah. You cannot merely accept Allah.

In Islam they consider Adam to be a prophet of God.

But how can the man who brought corruption and sin into the world through disobedience be a prophet? Islam is confused, it considers that prophets are either sinless of without most of the major sins. But Adam is the author of mankinds problems.

Christianity is simple, believe in Jesus his words, ressurection and provision for sin and salvation.

I actually did answer the question within the text. The question, however, is based on a wrong premise but not only would He, but He will, if you understand why and reasons behind it.

This premise is completely wrong. Hell is not a place where people stop existing. This is merely a JW's argument based on faulty doctrine and incorrect translations.

The bible is clear that the devil, his angels and all those who reject Jesus Christ will go to hell, "the smoke of their torment will be a reminder forever, their worm does not die and the fire is not quenched’ ” (Mark 9:43-44,46,48). Some argue that this means that they become like unto garbage and the worm represents the eating away or unending destruction of the individual that will last for all time. Gehenna (Hell) was a refuse dump.

In regards to people not knowing God, scripture is clear that God never leaves himself without witness regardless of how we humanly understand this concept. God alone judges fairly.

The idea of a benevolent God sending people to hell is a false premise. First of all let me use these analogies:

1/

I loved someone so much that I sent hundreds of my friends to help them, but because of ignorance, indifference and even hostility them rejected that help. So rather than friends I sent close family to strong persuade them and physically show the way of escape. I even sent my close family and finally my son. But they were so enraged that they killed him. Is that a lack of benevolence?

2/

Suppose I was God and all life was because of me and through me and actual in me. Let us presume that life could not exist outside of me it was just impossible.

One day, I created some spiritual beings similar to myself except they lived because of me and not independently because that was impossible. My aim was for them to enjoy life, have fun and love one another, no argument here because I know whats best because I know everything and am perfect.

One day someone fooled them into believing I was not perfect, I didn't love them and I didn't know everything. They went on to convince them that life was what they made it and not only because of me.

-----------------------------------------

So in order not to labour a point too much. Hell is not a place where people are sent, they are thrown. It is a place of weeping, crying and torment. A place not prepared for people but the devil and all those who oppose God. This was never meant to be a place for people. But God created all things and just like a fruit tree that stops producing good fruit, those who feed on unbelief, anti-Christian ideas, practice immoral behaviour and reject Jesus Christ (God) produce bad fruit and are thrown on the fire.

God would possibly be considered in-benevolent; if he had not constantly provided a way for us to produce good fruit and escape the corruption of the world, if he had not suffered severely himself to make a way of salvation, if the decision to go to hell was not one that we make now!

Hell is a place that is outside the presence of God. To remain in his presence we all need his son.
