}
Faith
In Prophets
1-We believe that:Allah
chose from among mankind some Prophets to reveal to them.
2-From among
those Prophets He selected Some Messengers.
3-He sent to
the Messengers laws and commanded them to proclaim and to clarrify them
to their people.
4-There were
a number of Messenger known for their firm stand and endurance in struggling
for the Cause of Allah. They are five: Noah, Ibrahim, Moosa (Moses), Isa
(Jesus), and Muhammad ('Alayhimu s-Salatu wa s-Salamu) (P.B.U.T.)
5-Embracing
Islam does not mean to disbelieve in Mossa or Isa or any other prophet.
6-Islam teaches
you how to believe correctlt in all Prophets.
7-Allah (Glory
be to Him) says in Al-Qur'an: "To you We sent the Scripture in Truth, Confirming
the Scripture that came before it, And guarding it..." {Al-Qur'an 5:48}
i.e. Clarifying the Truth they distorted.
8-Allah mentioned
names of number of Prophets. He says: "Say you (Muslims): We believe in
Allah and the revelation given to us, and to Ibrahim, Isma'il, Issac, Ya'aqoob
(Jacob) and the Tribes, and that given to Mossa (Moses) and Isa (Jesus),
and that given to all Prophets from their Lord. We make no difference between
one and another of them, And we bow to Allah (in Islam)" {Al-Qur'an 2:136}
9-The first
Prophet Was Adam, father of mankind, 'Alayhi s-Salam (P.B.U.H.)
10-Muhammad
the Prophet of Islam 'Alayhi s-Salam (P.B.U.H.), is the Seal (The last)
of the prophets. No prophet is to come after him up to the end of this
world.
11-Hence the
fact that his religion is the only true religion to remain up to yhe Last
Day.
12-He is Muhammad
son of 'Abdullah son of 'Abdul-Muttalib. He is an Arab from
(the famous tribe) of Quraysh, a descendant of Ibrahim (Abraham) and Isma'il
'Alayhimu s-Salatu wa s-Salamu (P.B.U.T.)

Revelation to him when he was 40 years old.
15-He stayed
in Makkah 13 years calling people to (believe in) Allah.
16-Only a limited
number of people believed in him.
17-After that
he emigrated to 'Al-Madinah' and invited its people to believe in Allah,
and they accepted.
