PROPHETS AND HISTORICAL EVENTS IN THE HOLY QURAN (PART 2 )

Hazrat Ibraheem (AS):

      Hazrat Ibraheem (AS) is one of the most well-known and popular Prophet. All Jews, Christians, and Muslims respect him and admit his Prophethood. ALLAH Almighty says about Him in Holy Quran Verse 4:125:

And who is better in religion than one who submits himself to ALLAH while being a doer of good and follows the religion of Abraham, inclining toward truth? And ALLAH took Abraham as an intimate friend.

Hence, Hazrat Ibraheem (AS) was the one whom ALLAH Almighty befriended, therefore words fall short of explanation his greatness and all that he had sacrificed in the name of ALLAH Almighty and for the path of virtue.

Hazrat Yaqoob (AS):

       Hazrat Yaqoob (AS) was the grandson of Hazrat Ibraheem (AS). He had the nickname ‘Israel’ and it is from him that the various tribes of Jews descent.

Hazrat Yaqoob (AS) is well-known for his twelve sons from whom the humankind sprung and then expanded to various parts of the world. He was a Prophet and taught the righteous path to His people and conveyed the similar message to His sons as well several of whom later on became Prophets. Holy Quran tells of his preaching to His sons in the following way, verse 2:133 of Holy Quran:

Or were you witnesses when death approached Jacob, when he said to his sons, "What will you worship after me?" They said, "We will worship your God and the God of your fathers, Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac - one God. And we are Muslims [in submission] to Him."

Hazrat Yousuf (AS):

      Hazrat Yousuf (AS) is known for the unmatched and supreme beauty that he possessed and the impact of His beauty on the other people. There is the entire narration of his brothers ditching Him, He being tempted by His woman, his resistance to it and the resulting worldly punishments he faced. Though, the moral of the narrative is that sticking to the path of good does come with hardships but eventually it is the good that succeeds which occurred with Hazrat Yousuf (AS) who at the ending received all what he had lost. In Holy Quran, ALLAH Almighty says about Him:

“When Joseph attained his full manhood, We gave him power and knowledge: thus do We reward those who do right.”

Hazrat Moosa (AS):

     Hazrat Moosa (AS) is the most famous Prophet of Jews, acknowledges in Christianity and respected in Islam same like as are all the other Prophets. There are many narrations concerning to Hazrat Moosa (AS) and how He preached his nation. The famed of them are; when Pharaoh ordered to murder all the boys because of the prediction of his dethroning yet Hazrat Moosa (AS) survived and grew up in the house of Pharaoh, when He spoke with ALLAH Almighty on Mount Toor (koh-e-Toor), the commandments He brought to His nation, the rescuing of the citizens from Pharaoh, all the inflictions that came on the people of Pharaoh because of not listening to Him and finally the drowning of Pharaoh and his military in the river Nile when they were in the chase of Hazrat Moosa (AS) and the people of Israel.

Hazrat Eesa (AS):

       Muslims regard Hazrat Eesa (AS) is also the Prophet of ALLAH Almighty. In narrations Hazrat Eesa (AS) is well-known for his miracles the most excellent of them all is his being born without a father. In Holy Quran verse 3:59, ALLAH Almighty says:

“This similitude of Jesus before ALLAH is as that of Adam: He created him from dust, then said to him: “Be” and he was.”

In adding to his birth without a father, Hazrat Eesa (AS) is also famous for his converting water into wine, remedial leprosy and waking up of the dead.
