Allah charges everyone with obeying the prophets He has sent.
These messengers were blessed men who abided by Allah's commands,
communicated His revelations, represented the human model most
pleasing to Allah by means of their words and actions, in short by their
whole manner of living. Allah reveals in the Qur'an that those who abide
by His messengers will be saved. For that reason, obedience to the
Prophet (saas) is an obligation of the very greatest importance. Allah re-
veals the importance of obedience in the Qur'an:

In several verses of the Qur'an, it is stated that those who obey His
messengers are in truth obeying Allah. Those who rebel against these
messengers, on the other hand, rebel against Allah. Some of these verses
are:
