Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)

generations, though they had named lands after them-
selves. But man, despite his riches, does not endure; he is
like the beasts that perish... Do not be overawed when a
man grows rich, when the splendor of his house increases;
for he will take nothing with him when he dies, his splen-
dor will not descend with him. (Psalm, 49: 6-17)

Believing in the Prophets

Throughout history, Allah has sent Prophets to
call their people to belief in Allah , inform them of His
religion, teach them right from wrong, and abide by
the morality that wins His good pleasure. In the
Qur'an Allah reveals the lives of such Prophets as
Abraham, Solomon, David, Lot, Jesus, Moses, Noah,

Joseph, Ishmael, and Isaac (peace be upon them all) be-
cause their lives contain important lessons for human-
ity (Surah Yunus: 111). Prophets were chosen by Allah
to serve as teachers and givers of good tidings, and as
role models of virtue and faith. Muslims believe in all
of the Prophets and love and respect them, without
preferring one over the other. In the verses Allah de-

scribes Muslims' belief and obedience to Prophets, as
follows:
The Messenger believes in what has been sent
down to him from his Lord, and so do the believ-
ers. Each one believes in Allah , His angels, His
Books, and His Messengers [saying: ] "We do not
differentiate between any of His Messengers."
