25 Prophets of Islam
How many
prophets did God send to mankind? This is a debated issue, but what we
know is what God has told us in the Quran.
God says he sent a prophet to every nation. He says:
“For
We assuredly sent amongst every People a Messenger, (with the command):
‘Serve God, and eschew Evil;’ of the people were some whom God guided,
and some on whom Error became inevitably (established). So travel
through the earth, and see what was the end of those who denied (the
Truth)” (Quran 16:36)
This is because one of the principles by
which God operates is that He will never take a people to task unless
He has made clear to them what His expectations are.
The Quran mentions the names of 25 prophets and indicates there were others. It says:
“Of some messengers We have already told you the story; of others We have not; - and to Moses God spoke direct.” (Quran 4:164)
