Our Prophet
[10:104] Say: O people! if you are in doubt as to my religion, then (know that) I do not serve those whom you serve besides Allah but I do serve Allah, Who will cause you to die, and I am commanded that I should be of the believers. .
Prophets of Islam
Since the beginning of time, God has sent prophets
to teach His message
Muslims believe in One Almighty Creator, Who is
Omnipotent, Compassionate, and Merciful. In His
mercy, He sends guidance to mankind on how to
properly worship Him and live our lives.
Islam teaches that God sends prophets to the
nations, in different times and different places,
to communicate His message. Since the beginning of
time, God has sent His guidance through these
chosen people. They were human beings who walked
among their people and taught them about faith in
One Almighty God, and how to walk on the path of
righteousness. The Qur'an says that "The Messenger
believes in what has been revealed to him from his
Lord, as do the men of faith. Each one of them
believes in God, His angels, His books, and His
Messengers. They say: 'We make no distinction
between one and another of His Messengers.' And
they say: 'We hear, and we obey. We seek Thy
forgiveness, Our Lord, and to Thee is the end of
all journeys.'" (Al-Baqarah, 2:285)
All prophets, peace be upon them all, gave guidance and instruction to their people about how to properly worship God and live their lives. Since God is One, His message has been one and the same throughout time. In essence, all prophets taught the message of Islam - to find peace in your life through submission to the One Almighty Creator -- to believe in God and to follow His guidance.
