Islam's Great Council in Heaven

Islam's Great Council in Heaven - The Koran tells how at a great council held in the heavens at the creation of the earth God set forth the plan of salvation.  Yet the Koran does not tell us what this plan is and what it's value to us is.
== Koran's Great Council Doctrine ==
The Koran tells how at a great council held in the heavens at the creation of the earth God set forth the plan of salvation, and how Satan rejected the plan, refused to bow to Adam, and was cast out of heaven by main force, falling to this earth, where he now undertakes to tempt the children of men during their time of probation here below. 6 Such teachings enjoy great prominence in the newly discovered documents of the early Christian and Jewish saints and sectaries of the desert, documents of which Eduard Meyer knew nothing but which now go a long way toward explaining how the teachings got into the Koran.
But the early Christian and Jewish traditions that survive in the Koran and in works by its early commentators came to the Arabs secondhand and were never really assimilated or understood by them. “No knowledge have I of the chiefs on high, discussing among themselves,” says Mohammed; “only this has been revealed to me: to give warning plainly and publicly.”
That is, Mohammed has heard about the council in heaven, but he really knows nothing about it. So we are told of God's plan, laid down at the foundation of the earth; and yet the plan is no plan at all, for punishment and reward have nothing whatever to do with individual behavior and all things happen—”don’t ask why or how” (bila kaif)—according to the imponderable will and pleasure of God.
== Contradictions ==
Can a non-believer ask a question about something in Islam that appears confusing? 
From the series Nibleys Contradictions in Islam:
# This grand council in heaven is the greatest single event in history for it initiated the course for the creation of the world giving every human being (believers and non-believers) a mortal existence, but God won't tell us why he did this for us?
# Why keep the purpose of life such a secret from all of us?
# If God revealed his theology to Mohammed in perfect form, why is this part missing?
# How can a theology be "wholly revealed" if the history of God and why he created the world is not fully revealed?
