The Details of the Question
The cause of earthquakes that is explained by science is due to volcanic but Islam limits the cause of earthquakes up to commiting sins and disobedience of God. But if we put sight on different parts of the world then we can easily determine that some parts of the world are full of people who have sins but there aren't any earthquakes in those places...How can you explain this?

The Answer
Dear Brother / Sister,
We cannot show a definite cause for this subject matter. That is, we cannot say that every calamity or disaster is given by Allah for only punishment. The earthquakes and disasters on earth have lots of reasons. We cannot evaluate them all in one category.
