Exiledsaint, Indeed what Whitefeather has said is true. There were thousands of Prophets in Islam. Those revealed in the divine Quran are just the few names of the ones that are relevant to convey the message in the Quran.
I suspect that the other Prophets same message of worship only one God became even more lost in human translation and therefore were not mentioned.
I find it intriguing that is also mentioned that we are not the only creations, all of whom must worship the one & only creator.
Funny that you mentioned China, from his teachings, that some speculate that Confucius may have been one of these Prophets. Allah is all knowing.
Being worthy really has nothing to do with why certain people are chosen, the Arabs prior to Islam were nothing short of barbarians before Islam cultivated them. Bani Israel were always the chosen ones but unfortunately they wouldn't adhere regardless of all the miracles they had witnessed!
Prophets Mohammed's ummah although barbaric did believe in the last miracle...the Holy Quran revealed to an illiterate Mohammed (PBUH) the last Prophet.
Since then, 1400 years the core message hasn't been changed, One book unadulterated regardless of human/political intervention. And no Prophets will come to preach after him
Pajju...What's a troll? I hope you're not asking if I live under a bridge? :) The answer would be no
Twinkle, One really can't call anyone a 'so-called Muslim' It is only Allah that knows and will judge what the heart hides.
Having said that, you do strike an excellent point saying "it is fine for Christians and Jews to attack Muslim's faith (that a prophet committed adultery) but pointing out to a fact that Bible is human-written, is a gross act"
I'm inclined to side with you
