If my Christian friends believe in election by the foreknowledge of God , they have the same "problem"

That is God created the men He knew would deny him , and that would be judged guilty and sent to hell on the day of Judgment .

Is there a scripture that says Fairness is one of Gods attributes?

I'll give you more than one.

The LORD rewards every man for his righteousness and his faithfulness (1 Samuel 26:23)

...then hear thou in heaven, and act, and judge thy servants, condemning the guilty by bringing his conduct upon his own head, and vindicating the righteous by rewarding him according to his righteousness. (1 Kings 8:32)

O great and mighty God whose name is the LORD of hosts,
great in counsel and mighty in deed; whose eyes are open to all the ways of men, rewarding every man according to his ways and according to the fruit of his doings (Jeremiah 32:18-19)

And to be fair ;o), I'll give you one from the Christian scriptures too.

And if you invoke as Father him who judges each one impartially according to his deeds... (1 Peter 1:17)
