]s identify the '''prophets of Islam''' ({{lang-ar|'''النبوة في الإسلام'''}}) as those humans chosen by ] and given revelation to deliver to mankind. Muslims believe that every ] was given a belief to worship God and their respective followers believed it as well.<ref>{{Cite quran|2|131|e=133|s=ns}}</ref> Each prophet, in Muslim belief, preached the same main belief of worshiping ] (which in Arabic is translated as '']'') and in the avoidance of ] and ]. Each came to preach ] at different times in history and some, including ], told of the coming of the final prophet and messenger of God, who would be named ]. Each prophet directed a message to a different group of people, and thus would preach Islam in accordance with the times. Although many lay Muslims and many Western scholars and writers hold the view that Islam began with Muhammad in ], this contradicts the ], which says that Muhammad simply was the ] who preached the same faith that ] preached to his children.

Islamic tradition holds that God sent messengers to every nation.<ref>{{Cite quran|10|47|s=ns}}</ref> Muslims believe that God finally sent Muhammad to transmit the message of the Quran, the holy book which, according to Islam, is universal in its message. The reason the Muslims believe the Quran is universal and will remain uncorrupted is because they believe that previous ], namely the ]; the ]; and the ], were for a particular time and community and because they believe that, even if the books were corrupted, many prophets were still to come who could tell the people of what was correct in the scripture and warn them of corruptions. Muhammad therefore, being the last prophet, was vouchsafed a book which, in Muslim belief, will remain in its true form till the ].

==Etymology==
In both Arabic and ], the term ''nabī'' (plural forms: ''nabiyyūn'' and ''anbiyāʾ'') means "prophet". Forms of this noun occur 75 times in the Quran. The term '']'' (meaning "]") occurs five times in the Quran. The terms ''rasūl'' (plural: ''rusul'') and ''mursal'' (plural: ''mursalūn'') denote “messenger” or "]" and occur more than 300 times. The term for a prophetic “message”, ''risāla'' (plural: ''risālāt'') appears in the Quran in ten instances.<ref name="EoQP">Uri Rubin, ''Prophets and Prophethood'', '']''</ref>

The ] of ''rasūl Allāh'' (literally: "messenger of God"), ''s̲h̲eliḥeh d-allāhā'', occurs frequently in the ] ]. The corresponding verb for ''s̲h̲eliḥeh'' — ''s̲h̲alaḥ'', occurs in connection with the prophets in the ].<ref>{{bibleverse||Exodus|3:13-14|1000}}, {{bibleverse-nb||Exodus|4:13|1000}}</ref><ref>{{bibleverse||Isaiah|6:8|1000}}</ref><ref>{{bibleverse||Jeremiah|1:7|1000}}</ref><ref name="EoI">A.J. Wensinck, ''Rasul'', '']''</ref>

The words "prophet" (Arabic: ''nabi'', نبي) and "messenger" (Arabic: ''rasul'', رسول) appear several times in the Old Testament and the ].

The following table shows these words in different languages:<ref>'']''</ref>

In the Old Testament the word "prophet" (Hebrew: '']'') occurs more commonly, and the word "messenger" (Hebrew: '']'') refers to ]s (Arabic: ملائكة, ]), But the last book of the Old Testament, the ], speaks of a messenger that Christian commentators interpret as a reference to the future prophet ].<ref>] under {{bibleverse||Malachi|2:7|1000}} and {{bibleverse-nb||Malachi|3:1|1000}}
</ref>

In the New Testament, however, the word "messenger" becomes more frequent, sometimes in association with the concept of a prophet.<ref>] {{bibleverse-nb||Hebrews|3:1|1000}}; ] {{bibleverse-nb||John|17:3|1000}}; ] {{bibleverse-nb||Matthew|11:10|1000}}; ] {{bibleverse-nb||Mark|1:2|1000}}; ] {{bibleverse-nb||Ephesians|3:5|1000}}, {{bibleverse-nb||Ephesians|4:11|1000}}; ] {{bibleverse-nb||1Corinthians|28:12|1000}}</ref>

"Messenger" can refer to Jesus, to his ] and to John the Baptist.

It seems that in the New Testament a messenger can have a higher rank than prophets: Jesus Christ said about John the Baptist:

{{quote|But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.<br>For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.|]|'']''<ref>{{bibleverse||Matthew|11:9-10|1000}}</ref>}}

=== Distinguishing between prophets and messengers ===
{{Main|Prophets and messengers in Islam}}
All messengers are commonly considered to be prophets. However not all prophets are considered as messengers.<ref>{{cite book | url=http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=zPXu561ZpvgC&pg=PT100&dq=%22all+messengers+are+prophets%22#v=onepage&q=%22all%20messengers%20are%20prophets%22&f=false | title=Islam for Dummies | author=Malcomn Clark | publisher=Wiley Publising Inc | year=2003 | isbn=978-0-764-55503-9}}</ref> The Quran, like the quoted passage from the New Testament, may rank a messenger higher than a prophet. For example, whenever both titles appear together, "messenger" comes first. Crucially, a messenger delivers a ''new religious law'' (]) revealed by God, whereas a prophet continues an old one.{{Citation needed|date=January 2010}} God sends both prophets and messengers as givers of good news and as admonishers of their people. A messenger will become the witness that God will take from that community on the ] (see the following '']''; ];<ref>{{cite quran|10|48|s=ns}}</ref> ];<ref>{{cite quran|16|38|s=ns}}</ref> ];<ref>{{cite quran|23|46|s=ns}}</ref> ];<ref>{{cite quran|40|5|s=ns}}</ref> ];<ref>{{cite quran|4|45|s=ns}}</ref> ]<ref>{{cite quran|28|75|s=ns}}</ref>).

Scholars like ] and ] maintain that the key difference between prophets and messengers is that denial of a messenger invites punishment from God - this is termed as ] (one of the ways of God in the Quran). Thus, for example, denial of ]'s invitation by his people, caused ] to come upon them. This is an extension of the view above that messengers become witnesses to the delivery of the Divine message to their respective nations, and their nations are judged accordingly by God.<ref>{{cite book|last=Ghamidi|first=Javed Ahmad|title=Mizan|year=2009|location=Lahore|edition=2nd|language=Urdu}}</ref>

Muslims distinguish between celestial and human messengers. In the Quranic world, God calls the angels 'messengers' but not prophets. The human messengers, however, also function as prophets — though not every prophet serves as a messenger. Angels always carry "orders" to the human prophets or messengers on what to say, what to do, and so forth. For example, ] - the angel - delivered the Quran to Muhammad, the prophet and the messenger.

==== Prophethood in Ahmadiyya Islam ====
{{Main|Prophethood (Ahmadiyya)}}
Unlike the majority of Muslims, the ] does not recognize any difference between a messenger (''rasul'') and a prophet (''nabi''). Ahmadiyya belief regards the terms encountered in the Quran to signify divinely appointed individuals - "warner" (''nazir''), "prophet" (''nabi''), "messenger" (''rasul'') - as generally synonymous. Ahmadis however categorise prophets as law-bearing ones and non-lawbearing ones. The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community also recognizes ] (1835–1908) as a Prophet of God, and also sees him as the Promised ] and ] ] of the ] and view it<ref></ref> in accordance with the prophecies of Muhammad.

==General Information==
===Status in Islam===
The Quran speaks of the prophets as being the greatest human beings of all time.<ref name="ReferenceA">Wheeler, ''Historical Dictionary of Prophets in Islam and Judaism'', ''Prophets''</ref> A prophet, in the Muslim sense of the term, is a person whom God specially chose to teach the faith of Islam.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> Before man was created, God had specifically selected those men whom He would use as prophets. This does not, however, mean that every prophet began to prophesy from his birth. Some were called to prophesy late in life, in Muhammad's case at the age of 40 and in Noah's case at 480<ref>Wheeler, ''Historical Dictionary of Prophets in Islam and Judaism'', ''Noah''</ref> Others, such as John the Baptist, was called to prophesy while still in young age and ] prophesied while still in his cradle.<ref>{{Cite quran|19|30|e=33|s=ns}}</ref>

The Quran verse 4:69 lists various virtuous groups of human beings, among whom prophets (including messengers) occupy the highest rank. Verse 4:69 reads:<ref name="EoQP"/>

{{quote|All who obey Allah and the messenger are in the company of those on whom is the Grace of Allah - of the prophets (who teach), the sincere (lovers of Truth), the witnesses (who testify), and the Righteous (who do good): Ah! what a beautiful fellowship!|Quran, sura 4 (An-Nisa), '']'' 69<ref>{{cite quran|4|69|s=ns}}</ref>}}

===Religion of preaching===
In Muslim belief, every prophet preached Islam. The beliefs of charity, prayer, pilgrimage, worship of God and fasting are believed to have been taught by every prophet who has ever lived.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> The Quran itself calls Islam the 'religion of ]'<ref>{{Cite quran|3|67|s=ns}}</ref> and refers to ] and the ] as being Muslim.<ref>{{Cite quran|2|123|e=133|s=ns}}</ref> ], ], Jesus, Noah, ] and the disciples of Jesus are just some of the other figures referred to as Muslims in the Quran.<ref>Wheeler, ''Historical Dictionary of Prophets in Islam and Judaism''</ref> The Quran says:

{{quote|The same religion has He established for you as that which He enjoined on Noah - the which We have sent by inspiration to thee - and that which We enjoined on Abraham, Moses, and Jesus: Namely, that ye should remain steadfast in religion, and make no divisions therein:...|Quran, sura 42 (]), ayah 13<ref>{{cite quran|42|13|s=ns}}</ref>}}

== Scriptures and other gifts ==
===Holy books===
The '''Revealed Books''' are the records which Muslims believe were dictated by God to various Islamic prophets throughout the history of mankind. All these books promulgated the code and laws of Islam. The belief in all the revealed books is an ] in Islam and Muslim's must believe in all the scriptures to be a Muslim. Muslims believe the Quran, the final holy scripture, was sent because all the previous holy books had been either corrupted or lost.<ref>''Concise Encyclopedia of Islam'', Cyril Glasse, ''Holy Books''</ref> Nonetheless, Islam speaks of respecting all the previous scriptures, even in their current forms.<ref>''Concise Encyclopedia of Islam'', Cyril Glasse</ref> The Quran mentions some Islamic scriptures by name, which came before the Quran:

* '''] (])''': According to the Quran, the Tawrat (Torah) was revealed to Moses,<ref name="Q5336"/> but Muslims believe that the current Pentateuch, although it retains the main message,<ref>{{Cite quran|87|18|e=19|s=ns}}</ref> has suffered corruption over the years. Moses and his brother ] used the Torah to preach the message to the Children of Israel. The Quran implies that the Torah is the longest-used scripture, with the ] people still using the Torah today, and that all the ] prophets would warn the people of any corruptions that were in the scripture.<ref>{{Cite quran|5|44|s=ns}}</ref> Jesus, in Muslim belief, was the last prophet to be taught the ] in its true form.
* '''] (])''': The Quran mentions the Psalms as being the holy scripture revealed to ]. Scholars have often understood the Psalms to have been holy songs of praise.<ref>Encyclopedia of Islam, ''Psalms''</ref> The current Psalms are still praised by many Muslim scholars,<ref>Abdullah Yusuf Ali, ''Holy Quran: Text, Translation and Commentary''; Martin Lings, ''Mecca''; Abdul Malik, ''In Thy Seed''</ref> but Muslims generally assume that some of the current Psalms were written later and are not divinely revealed.
* '''Book of Enlightenment''': The Quran mentions a ''Book of Enlightenment'',<ref>{{Cite quran|3|184|s=ns}} and {{Cite quran|35|25|s=ns|b=n}}</ref> which has alternatively been translated as ''Scripture of Enlightenment'' or the ''Illuminating Book''. It mentions that some prophets, in the past, came with clear signs from God as well as this particular scripture.
* '''Books of Divine Wisdom''': The Quran mentions certain ''Books of Divine Wisdom'',<ref>{{Cite quran|3|184|s=ns}}</ref> translated by some scholars as ''Books of Dark Prophecies'', which are a reference to particular books vouchsafed to some prophets, wherein there was wisdom for man. Some scholars have suggested that these may be one and the same as the Psalms as their root Arabic word, ''Zubur'', comes from the same source as the Arabic ''Zabur'' for the Psalms.
* '''] (])''': The İnjil (Gospel) was the holy book revealed to Jesus, according to the Quran. Although many lay Muslims believe the ''Injil'' refers to the entire New Testament, scholars have clearly pointed out that it refers not to the New Testament but to an original Gospel, written by God, which was given to Jesus.<ref>Abdullah Yusuf Ali, ''Holy Quran: Text, Translation and Commentary'', Appendix: ''On the Injil''</ref> Therefore, according to Muslim belief, the Gospel was the message that Jesus, being divinely inspired, preached to the Children of Israel. The current ], in the belief of Muslim scholars, are not divinely revealed but rather are documents of the life of Jesus, as written by various contemporaries, disciples and companions. These Gospels contain portions of Jesus's teachings but don't represent the original Gospel, which was a single book written not by a human but by God.<ref>Encyclopedia of Islam, ''Injil''</ref>
* ''']''': The Scrolls of Abraham are believed to have been one of the earliest bodies of scripture, which were vouchsafed to Abraham,<ref name="quran8719"/> and later used by Ishmael and Isaac. Although usually referred to as 'scrolls', many translators have translated the Arabic ''Suhuf'' as 'Books'.<ref>Marmaduke Pickthall, The Meaning of the Glorious Quran; Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Quran: Text, Translation and Commentary</ref> The Scrolls of Abraham are now considered lost rather than corrupted, although some scholars have identified them with the ], an ] available in Arabic at the time of Muhammad.
* ''']''': These scrolls, containing the revelations of Moses, which were perhaps written down later by Moses, Aaron and ], are understood by Muslims to refer not to the Torah but to revelations aside from the Torah. Some scholars have stated that they could possibly refer to the ],<ref>Abdullah Yusuf Ali, The Holy Quran: Text, Translation and Commentary</ref> a lost text spoken of in the ].<ref>Numbers 21:14</ref>

===Holy gifts===
The Quran mentions various divinely-bestowed gifts given to various prophets. These may be interpreted as books or forms of celestial knowledge. Although all prophets are believed by Muslims to have been immensely gifted, special mention of 'wisdom' or 'knowledge' for a particular prophet is understood to mean that some secret knowledge was revealed to him.
* '''Wisdom''': This attribute is spoken of in the Quran in numerous places. The Quran mentions that Abraham prayed for wisdom and later received it.<ref>{{Cite quran|26|83|s=ns}}</ref> It also mentions that ]<ref>{{Cite quran|12|22|s=ns}}</ref> and Moses<ref>{{Cite quran|28|14|s=ns}}</ref> both attained wisdom when they reached full age; David received wisdom with kingship, after slaying ];<ref>{{Cite quran|2|251|s=ns}}</ref> ] received wisdom whilst prophesying in ];<ref>{{Cite quran|21|74|s=ns}}</ref> John the Baptist received wisdom while still a mere youth;<ref>{{Cite quran|19|14|s=ns}}</ref> and Jesus received wisdom and was vouchsafed the Gospel.<ref>{{Cite quran|3|48|s=ns}}</ref>

== Other prophets ==
The Quran mentions only 25 prophets by name but also tells that God sent many other prophets and messengers, to all the different nations that have existed on Earth. Many verses in the Quran discuss this:

* "We did aforetime send messengers before thee: of them there are some whose story We have related to thee, and some whose story We have not related to thee. ..."<ref name="quran4078">{{cite quran|40|78|s=ns}}</ref>
* "For We assuredly sent amongst every People a messenger, ..."<ref>{{cite quran|16|36|s=ns}}</ref>

===Other prophets in the Quran===
*]: The Hebrew prophet is referenced as "a prophet" in the Quran,<ref name="Quran 2:247"/> in the context of the anointing of ]. Although his name is not given, he is mentioned by name in other ].<ref>''A-Z of Prophets in Islam'', B M. Wheeler, ''Samuel''</ref>
*]: The Quran mentions the ] Luqman in the chapter named after him, but does not clearly identify him as a prophet. The most widespread Islamic belief<ref>''A-Z of Prophets in Islam'', B M. Wheeler, ''Luqman''</ref> views Luqman as a ], but not as a prophet. However, other Muslims regard Luqman as a prophet as well.<ref>''Concise Encyclopaedia of Islam'', Cyril Glasse, ''Prophets in Islam''</ref>
*]: The Quran also mentions the mysterious Khidr, identified at times with ], who is the figure that Moses accompanies on one journey. Although most Muslims regard him as an enigmatic saint, some see him as a prophet as well.<ref name="ReferenceB">''A-Z of Prophets in Islam'', B M. Wheeler, ''Khidr''</ref>
*]: Dhul-Qarnayn, often identified with ] or ], is a revered ruler in Islam. His narrative, which parallels that of ] in the ], does not explicitly denote him as a prophet but some Muslims believe he was a prophet as well.<ref name="ReferenceB"/>
*]: These three unnamed prophets, who were sent to the same town, are referenced in ] of the Quran.<ref>{{Cite quran|36|13|e=21|s=ns}}</ref>

===Prophets in Islamic literature===
Numerous other prophets have been mentioned by scholars in the '']'', ], ] as well as in the famous collections of '']'' (''Stories of the Prophets''). These prophets include:
* ]<ref>''Stories of the Prophets'', Ibn Kathir, ''Daniel''</ref>
* ]<ref>''Stories of the Prophets'', Ibn Kathir, ''Ezra''</ref>
* ]<ref>''Stories of the Prophets'', Ibn Kathir, ''Isaiah''</ref>

* ]<ref>''Stories of the Prophets, Ibn Kathir, ''Adam''</ref>

* ]<ref name="ReferenceC"/>

===Mary, mother of Jesus===
{{Main|l1=Maryam|Islamic views of Mary}}

A few scholars (such as ])<ref>] </ref> see Maryam (Mary) as a ''nabi'' and a prophetess, since God sent her a message via an angel. The Quran, however, does not explicitly identify her as a prophet. Islamic belief regards her as the holiest of women, but not generally as a prophet.
