THE AMAZING JOURNEY OF THE PROPHETS
THE AMAZING JOURNEY OF THE PROPHETS
Intro
Most of the stories on this blog are made up adventures.
But this one is different.
This is not a fictional story.
The Prophets of Allah were real people who lived throughout history. They faced challenges, showed incredible patience, trusted Allah during difficult times, and taught people how to worship Him.
In this book, we will travel through time and learn about the Prophets in a simple way that children can understand.
We will discover:
✨ Who each Prophet was
✨ What message Allah gave them
✨ The difficulties they faced
✨ The miracles Allah gave them
✨ The lessons we can learn from their lives
From Prophet Adam (peace be upon him), the first human, to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), the final Messenger, every Prophet teaches us something important about faith, kindness, courage, patience, and trusting Allah.
Although some details have been simplified to help younger readers understand, the events in this book are based on the stories of the Prophets found in the Qur'an and authentic Islamic teachings.
How Many Prophets Were There?
Allah sent many Prophets throughout history to guide people towards worshipping Him alone and living good, honest lives.
In the Qur'an, Allah tells us the names of 25 Prophets, and these are the Prophets we know the most about.
However, the Qur'an also tells us that there were many other Prophets whose stories were not mentioned by name:
"And We certainly sent messengers before you. Among them are those whose stories We have related to you, and among them are those whose stories We have not related to you." (Qur'an 40:78)
This means there were many more Prophets than the 25 named in the Qur'an.
A well known hadith narration reports that Allah sent around 124,000 Prophets and 315 Messengers throughout history. This information comes from hadith reports, not directly from the Qur'an, so Muslims learn it differently from the information that is explicitly mentioned in the Qur'an.
Only Allah knows the names of all the Prophets.
People all around the world, in different places and different times, received guidance from Allah through His chosen Prophets.
In this book, we will learn about the 25 Prophets mentioned in the Qur'an and discover the important lessons their lives teach us.
Prophets and Messengers
All Messengers are Prophets, but not all Prophets are Messengers.
A Messenger was given a message or scripture to deliver to people, while a Prophet guided people according to Allah's teachings.
Both were chosen by Allah and were among the very best of people.

A Final Du'a
1. Prophet Adam (Peace Be Upon Him)

Adam (peace be upon him) and his wife Hawwa (Eve) became the parents of all human beings.
Every person alive today is a descendant of Adam and Hawwa.
What Happened?
Before humans existed, Allah created Adam (peace be upon him) from clay.
Allah taught Adam many things and gave him knowledge that other creations did not have.
Allah then commanded the angels to honour Adam.
The angels obeyed Allah.
However, Iblis refused because he was arrogant and thought he was better than Adam.
Allah placed Adam and Hawwa in Paradise.
They were allowed to enjoy everything except one specific tree.
Iblis whispered to them and tempted them to eat from the tree.
After they made this mistake, they immediately realised they had done wrong.
They asked Allah for forgiveness.
Allah forgave them and sent them to Earth, where their family would grow and spread across the world.

After making a mistake, he had to learn the importance of repentance and returning to Allah.

What matters is admitting when we are wrong, asking Allah for forgiveness, and trying to do better.
Allah is Most Forgiving and loves those who sincerely repent.
Remember
Adam (peace be upon him) teaches us that making a mistake does not make someone a bad person.
Refusing to correct a mistake is the real problem.

Then ask Allah for forgiveness and try again.

Learning is also important.
Knowledge is a gift from Allah and should be used to benefit ourselves and others.

After many years, Allah informed Prophet Nuh (peace be upon him) that the people who had rejected the message would not believe.

They thought it made no sense.
But Prophet Nuh (peace be upon him) trusted Allah.

They mocked Prophet Hud (peace be upon him) and rejected his message.
Hud (peace be upon him) continued advising them with patience and kindness.
He warned them that if they continued to reject Allah, a punishment would come.
The people ignored the warning.
Soon a huge cloud appeared in the sky.
