What are the 1,24,000 names of the prophets? of islam?

Answer to this question is there is no fixed number of messengers or prophets of Allah on the face of earth. But it is mention in the Quran that Whereever Human Beings were there, Allah had sent Prophets to Guide them to the Right Path of Life that is ISLAM. ISLAM IS A COMPLETE WAY OF LIFE.

Ar-Ra’d Verse 7

وَيَقُوْلُ الَّذِيْنَ كَفَرُوْا لَوْلَآ اُنْزِلَ عَلَيْهِ اٰيَةٌ مِّنْ رَّبِّهٖۗ اِنَّمَآ اَنْتَ مُنْذِرٌ وَّلِكُلِّ قَوْمٍ هَادٍ ࣖ ( الرعد: ٧ )

Sahih International:

And those who disbelieved say, “Why has a sign not been sent down to him from his Lord?” You are only a warner, and for every people is a guide. (Ar-Ra’d [13] : 7)

Those who refused to believe in you say: “Why has no (miraculous) sign been sent down upon him from his Lord?” You are only a warner, and every people has its guide.

What is the Difference between Nabi and Rasool?

Difference Between Rasool and Nabi

• Categorized under Religion | Difference Between Rasool and Nabi

Rasool vs Nabi

In Islam, there are two types of messengers which are used by the Quran, the Rasool and the Nabi. Both positions are regarded highly by Islam’s followers. While most if not all messengers were Nabi, only a few were both a Nabi and a Rasool. The difference lies in the responsibilities that each is given.

Rasool is defined as a messenger, an individual who was given a new Sharia or code of law by Allah (God). The message is received by the Rasool as a vision while he is asleep or as a conversation with angels while he is awake.

A Rasool is born a Nabi but becomes officially a Rasool the instant he receives the position and makes it known. Of the several thousand Nabis and the 25 prophets that are mentioned in the Quran, there are five Rasools who are called Ulul azm:

Hazrat Nooh(as) who received the Sharia which was followed by other prophets until Hazrat Ibrahim(as).
Hazrat Ibrahim(as) who received the Sharia followed by other prophets until Hazrat Musa(as).
Hazrat Musa(as) who received the Sharia followed by other prophets until Hazrat Isa(as).
Hazrat Isa(as) who received the Sharia which was followed until the time of the Holy Prophet Muhammad(sws).
Prophet Muhammad(sws) who received the most perfect Sharia which is to be followed until the last day of the world.

What are the 124,000 names of the prophet?

Quran 16:36 And verily, We have sent among every Ummah (community, nation) a Messenger (proclaiming): “Worship Allah (Alone), and avoid (or keep away from) Taghut (all false deities, etc.i. e. do not worship Taghut besides Allah).” Then of them were some whom Allah guided and of them were some upon whom the straying was justified.

Hadith: I said “O Messenger of Allah, how many Prophets were there?” He replied “One hundred twenty four thousand

Out of Allah`s love, he does not leave us misguided. He has sent prophets to every nation. Each prophet, he sent them down for that specific people, at that specific time. However, not all of them are mentioned in the Quran and Hadith. Why? Because they are not important to us and since Allah sent the last prophet for all of humanity: Muhammad (PBUH), we do not need to know what prophets came before.

Here are the prophets mentioned in the Quran:

Adam

Idris (Enoch)

Nuh (Noah)

Hud (Heber)

Salih (Methusaleh)

Lut (Lot)

Ibrahim (Abraham)

Ismail (Ishmael)

Ishaq (Isaac)

Yaqub (Jacob)

Yusuf (Joseph)

Shu’aib (Jethro)

Ayyub (Job)

Dhulkifl (Ezekiel)

Musa (Moses)

Harun (Aaron)

Dawud (David)

Sulayman (Solomon)

Ilias (Elias)

Alyasa (Elisha)

Yunus (Jonah)

Zakariya (Zachariah)

Yahya (John the Baptist)

Isa (Jesus)

Muhammad

Peace Be Upon Them All.

This Sharia can never be changed, and there can be no other prophet after Prophet Muhammad(sws) because he is the last prophet. He also holds the highest rank and position among all the prophets, Rasools, and Nabis.

Of a slightly lower rank than a Rasool is the Nabi who is also a messenger of Allah (God). Unlike the Rasool, though, the Nabi is not given a new Sharia but follows the Sharia which was given to the Rasool who came before him.

“Nabi” is a term that is used in both Arabic and Hebrew to refer to “prophet.” While a Rasool can communicate with angels, a Nabi can only see them in his sleep. Both the Rasool and the Nabi are tasked with sharing and delivering the messages of Allah (God) to His people.

Summary:

1.“Rasool” is an Islamic word for “messenger” while “Nabi” is the Islamic as well as the Hebrew word for “prophet.”
2.There are several thousand Nabis while there are only a few Rasools.
3.While both the Rasool and the Nabi are tasked with sharing the message of Allah to His people, a Rasool holds a higher position while a Nabi holds a lower position.
4.A Rasool is always a Nabi while a Nabi may or may not become a Rasool.
5.While a Rasool receives a new Sharia from Allah, a Nabi does not and only follows the Sharia of the Rasool before him.
6.A Rasool receives messages through visions and communication with angels while awake while a Nabi receives messages which are conveyed to him by angels in his sleep.
