Belief in the Messengers and Its Impact on Strengthening the Islamic Creed in the Holy Quran

Abstract

The research addresses the belief in the Messengers and its impact on strengthening Islamic creed in the Holy Qur’an, as it is one of the most important pillars of faith upon which the Muslim creed is based. This study discusses the concept of belief in the Messengers, its position in the Holy Qur’an, the wisdom behind sending the Messengers, and their role in guiding humanity and bringing people from polytheism to monotheism. The noble Qur’anic verses affirm that believing in all the Messengers is a fundamental principle of Islamic creed, and that distinguishing between them in terms of belief  contradicts the true essence of faith.                                 

The research demonstrates that the Holy Qur’an presents the lives and missions of the Messengers through various methods and approaches. These approaches focus on the oneness of Allah Almighty, establishing evidence against humanity, correcting deviations in creed, and strengthening morals and values. The research concludes that belief in the Messengers is not merely a theoretical belief; rather, it has significant spiritual and behavioral effects. It strengthens belief in the oneness of Allah Almighty, increases certainty, promotes righteousness, protects Muslims from doubts and doctrinal deviations, and emphasizes the unity of the Prophets’ message in calling people to worship Alla alone.
