16. Hazrat Ishaq (Prophet Isaac)
Hazrat Ishaq, known as Prophet Isaac in other traditions, was the son of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) and his wife Sarah. His birth was a miracle, as Sarah was barren and both were of advanced age when angels brought the glad tidings of his birth.
Ishaq inherited his father’s prophetic mission, preaching monotheism and guiding his people to righteousness. He married Rebecca and had twin sons, Esau and Jacob, with Jacob continuing the prophetic lineage. Ishaq’s life is a testament to faith and the fulfillment of Allah’s promises.
18. Hazrat Shuaib (Prophet Jethro)
Hazrat Shuaib, also identified in Biblical texts as Jethro, was a prophet dispatched to the inhabitants of Midian, a society entrenched in dishonest trade and idol worship. He conveyed the message of monotheism to them, emphasizing the importance of integrity and fairness in their transactions.
