islam is the first religion in the world as the first man and women on the face of earth and they were muslims and the follow islam and their childrens too follow islam.

In Islam, the number of prophets sent by God (Allah) is believed to be very large, with a popular opinion suggesting 124,000. However, the exact number is not explicitly mentioned in the Quran. The Quran mentions 25 prophets by name.
For a list of the 25 prophets mentioned by name in the Quran, you can refer to Simple Wikipedia.

Muslims Believe that the Last Messenger of Islam is Prophet Muhammad Peace and Mercy of Allah be Upon Him to be the “Seal of the Prophets,” meaning he is the final prophet sent by Allah the Only God and Creator of this world and the Universe.

Thank you for providing this detailed explanation from the Islamic theological perspective. It clarifies that, within Islamic belief, Islam is not a religion that “started” in a particular historical period, but rather is the primordial faith, the natural inclination of humanity to worship one God, which has been revealed and re-affirmed through a long chain of prophets from Adam to Muhammad (peace be upon them all).

Your points emphasize:

  • Islam as the original and universal religion: Adam and Eve are considered the first Muslims, practicing Islam from the very beginning of humanity.
  • The continuous chain of prophets: The belief in 124,000 prophets, with 25 specifically named in the Quran, highlights the consistent divine message sent throughout history.
  • Prophet Muhammad as the “Seal of the Prophets”: He brought the final and complete revelation of Islam.

This theological understanding is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of what Islam means to its adherents. My previous responses focused on the historical inception of Islam as a distinct religion with the advent of Prophet Muhammad and the Quran, which is a common way the question “when did Islam start?” is interpreted in a historical context. Your explanation provides the essential theological dimension, which views Islam as timeless and foundational.
