ইসলামের নবীগণ

Adam is the first human being and first prophet created by God. His story of the Garden, the trial, repentance, and return to God forms the foundational narrative of humanity.

Noah preached God's message to his people for 950 years. Only a few believed. By God's command he built an ark and survived the great flood that cleansed the earth.

Abraham is the patriarch of Islam and the founder of the Hanif tradition. A young man from an idolatrous society, he found God through reason and conscience and devoted his life to Him.

Ishmael is the son of Abraham. When his father was commanded to sacrifice him, both willingly submitted to God's will. God sent a ram as ransom. Together they built the Kaaba in Mecca.

The life of Joseph is called 'the most beautiful of stories' in the Quran. From being thrown into a well by his brothers to becoming a minister of Egypt, his journey is an epic of patience, forgiveness, and divine providence.

Moses is the most mentioned prophet in the Quran. His confrontation with Pharaoh, his leading the Children of Israel out of Egypt, and his direct communication with God on Mount Sinai are the pillars of his story.

David was a powerful king and prophet. God revealed the Psalms to him and taught him the craft of making armor. Mountains and birds would glorify God with him because of his devotion.

Solomon possessed a kingdom unlike any before him. God gave him command over wind, jinn, and animals. He used this extraordinary power to worship God and establish justice.

Shuayb was sent to the people of Midian. He called them to be honest in measurement and trade, and to abstain from fraud.

Job was tested with great afflictions: illness, loss of wealth, and pain. Despite everything, he remained patient and was healed by God's mercy.

Jonah left his people without permission when they rejected him and spent days in the belly of a great fish. He repented in the darkness and God delivered him.

Aaron is the brother and helper of Moses. At Moses' request, God made him a prophet too. Together they confronted Pharaoh.

John is the miraculous son of Zechariah. The Quran mentions peace upon him on the day of his birth, his death, and the day he will be resurrected.

Elijah was sent to the Children of Israel and called them to leave the idol Baal and return to God. He was considered worthy of salutation among the righteous.

Elisha is a prophet chosen by God and mentioned among the good in the Quran. He served the Children of Israel after Elijah.
