Peace and blessings be on all the prophets of God.
" ... Allah named you Muslims earlier and even in this (Book - The Quran)..." (The Quran, 22:78)
The core of the message of Every Prophet of God was the same:
“There is no one to be worshipped and obeyed except The One and Only One God.” Allah, in Arabic, is the name of God. All the most beautiful names belong to Him.
Every Prophet sent by God were to be followed by his people, and God also told his prophets that if he sent another Prophet, they were obligated to follow the new Prophet.
Some Important Points about Islam:
- It is an unforgivable sin to believe that there are gods other than Allah. That was told by all the prophets of God.
- It is not enough to believe that God exists. He must be worshipped and obeyed.
- Worship and obedience of God must be according to the Prophets of God.
- Muhammad (peace be on him) is the last Prophet of God sent for all mankind. All must follow him now to be on the one and only True Religion of God for mankind. Muhammad’s Message is timeless, universal and is for all of humanity. The Holy Quran is the last Book sent by God and is the only Book of God which is in its original revealed form and text in Arabic. It testifies what was sent to earlier Prophets and makes the belief and obedience clear. The Quran and teachings of Prophet Muhammad (Sunnah) are the two primary sources of knowledge in Islam.
