Prophets Confirm One Another

A Covenant taken from Prophets

{ 18 - 18} 3 -

And recall when Allah took a covenant from the Prophets: 'This
is the Book and the Wisdom which I have given you. But should a
Prophet come to you confirming that which is already with you,
you must believe in him and help him. So saying, Allah asked:
'Do you agree and accept to take up the burden of the
covenant?' They answered: 'We agree,' He said: 'Then bear
witness; and I will be with you among the witnesses. Then
whosoever turns away after this, they are the transgressors.
Confirming other Messengers is a proof of the
truthfulness of prophets' phrophethood.

{ 33 - 33} 33 -

Whenever it was said to them (inmates of Hell): There is no true

god apart from Allah, they waxed proud and said: Shall we
forsake our deities for the sake of a distracted poet?" (They say
so) although he brought the Truth and confirmed the Messengers.

(O Muhammad!) We have revealed to you as We

revealed to

{ 863 - 863} 4 -

(O Muhammad!) We have revealed to you as We revealed to

Noah and the Prophets after him, and We revealed to Abraham,
Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob and the offspring of Jacob, and Jesus and
Job, and Jonah, and Aaron and Solomon, and We gave to David
Psalms. We revealed to the Messengers We have already told
you of, and to the Messengers We have not told you of; and to
Moses Allah spoke directly. These Messengers were sent as
bearers of glad tidings and as warners so that after sending the
Messengers people may have no plea against Allah. Allah is AllMighty, All-Wise. (Whether people believe or not) Allah bears
witness that whatever He has revealed to you, He has revealed
with His knowledge, and the angels bear witness to it too,
though the witness of Allah is sufficient. Those who denied this truth

and barred others from the way of Allah have indeed strayed far.

He has prescribed for you the religion which He enjoined upon

Noah and which We revealed to you (O Muhammad), and which
We enjoined upon Abraham and Moses and Jesus, commanding:
Establish this religion and do not split up regarding it.
(O Prophet!) Say

{ 13 - 14} 3 -

(O Prophet!) Say: 'We believe in Allah and what was revealed to

us and what was revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and to Issac
and Jacob and his descendents, and the teachings which Allah
gave to Moses and Jesus and to other Prophets. We make no
distinction between any of them and to Him do we submit. And
whoever seeks a way other than Islam (the way of submission),
will find that it will not be accepted from him and in the Life to
come he will be among the losers.

Quran confirms the Books that came before it.

{ 28} 6 -

This is a Book which We have revealed; full of blessing,

confirming what was revealed before it so that you might warn
the people of the Mother of Cities (Makka) and those around it.
Those who believe in the Hereafter believe in it, and are
constant in guarding their Prayers.

{ 38} 33 -

(O Prophet), the Book We have revealed to you is the Truth,

confirming the Books that came before it. Verily Allah is well
aware of His servants and sees everything.

{ 88} 46 -

Yet before this the Book was revealed to Moses as a guide and a
mercy. This Book (Quran), which confirms it, is in the Arabic

language to warn the wrong-doers and to give good tidings to

those who do good.

{ 4 - 3} 3 -

(O Mohammad) He has revealed this Book to you, setting forth

the truth and confirming the earlier Books, and earlier He
revealed the Torah and Gospel for the guidance of mankind; and
He has revealed the Criterion (to distinguish truth from
falsehood). A severe chastisement lies in store for those who
deny the revelations of Allah. Allah is All-Mighty; He is the Lord
of Retribution.
Quran is a confirmation of the revelation made
before it and a detailed explanation of the Book.

{ 33} 81 -

And this Qur'an is such that it could not be composed by any

unless it be revealed from Allah. It is a confirmation of the
revelation made before it and a detailed explanation of the
Book. Beyond doubt it is from the Lord of the universe.

Then We revealed the Book to you (O Mohammad!) with Truth,

confirming whatever of the Book was revealed before, and
protecting and guarding over it. Judge, then, in the affairs of men
in accordance with the Law that Allah has revealed, and do not
follow their desires in disregard of the Truth which has come to you.

{ 888} 82 -

Certainly in the stories of the bygone people there is a lesson for

people of understanding. What is being narrated in the Qur'an is no
fabrication; it is rather confirmation of the Books that preceded it,
and a detailed explanation of everything, and a guidance and mercy
for people of faith.

And We sent Jesus, the son of Mary, after those Prophets,

confirming the truth of whatever there still remained of the
Torah. And We gave him the Gospel, wherein was guidance and
light, and which confirmed the truth of whatever there still
remained of the Torah, and a guidance and admonition for the
God-fearing. And the followers of the Gospel should have judged
by what Allah revealed therein, and those who do not judge by
what Allah has revealed are the transgressors.

{ 38 - 31} 3 -

(Jesus also said:) 'And I have come to confirm the truth of

whatever there still remains of the Torah, and to make lawful to
you some of the things which had been forbidden to you. I have
come to you with a sign from your Lord; so have fear of Allah
and obey me. Surely, Allah is my Lord and your Lord; so serve
Him alone. This is the straight way.'
Prophet Jesus (PBUH) confirmed Torah and gave the glad
tiding of Prophet Mohammad's (PBUH) Prophethood.

And call to mind when Jesus, son of Mary, said: O Children of

Israel, I am Allah's Messenger to you, I verify the Torah which has
come before me, and I give you the glad tiding of a Messenger
who will come after me, his name being Ahmad. Yet when he
came to them with Clear Signs they said: This is sheer magic.
Children of Israel

And how are they behaving now towards a Book which has come
to them from Allah? Inspite of the fact that it confirms the
Scriptures which they already possessed and inspite of the fact
that, before it came, they used to pray for a signal victory over
the disbelievers, they rejected it when it came, although they
recognized it. May Allah's curse be upon such disbelievers! What
a mean thing it is with which they delude their minds. They
reject the Guidance which Allah has sent down merely because
of their grudge why Allah has in His bounty sent it (prophethood

and the Book) to whom He chose from amongst His servants.

They have thus incurred wrath after wrath, and for such
disbelievers there is a disgraceful torment. When it is said to
them, "Believe in that which Allah has sent down," they say,
"We believe only in that which has been sent to us", and reject
everything else, though it is the Truth and confirms what is with
them. Well, ask them, "If you sincerely believed in what was sent
down to you, why did you kill the Messengers of Allah (who
were sent to you from amongst yourselves)?
The way of some from among the people of the Book

{ 818} 8 -

And whene a Messenger came to them from Allah, confirming

that Scripture which they already possessed, some from among
the people of the Book threw the Book of Allah behind their
backs as though they knew nothing about it.
O you who have been given the Book!

O you who have been given the Book! Do believe in what We

have (now) revealed, which confirms the revelation which you
already possess. Do this before We alter faces, turning them
backwards, or lay a curse upon them as We cursed the Sabbathmen. Bear in mind that Allah's command is executed.
