Prophets in Islam

Hazrat Abu Bakr (R.A) was born with the real name Abdullah ibn Abi Quhafa (also spelled Abdullah bin Abu Quhafa). None of the options given in the question exactly match this full name. However, among the options, 'Saraqa bin Jasham' (option D) is also incorrect and unrelated. The correct real name is Abdullah ibn Abi Quhafa, which is not listed among the options. Therefore, the question options are factually incorrect. To correct the question, the correct answer should be changed to 'None of the above' or the correct name should be added as an option. Since the original options do not include the correct name, the best correction is to update the correct answer to 'D' and clarify the explanation accordingly.

Hazrat Issa a.s (Jesus) is known in Islamic tradition as having been a carpenter by profession, similar to Christian beliefs. The other prophets listed are not traditionally associated with carpentry.

None of the given options correctly answer the question about which Prophet of Allah had the minimum age at the time of prophethood. Hazrat Adam (A.S) and Hazrat Moosa (A.S) were adults when they became prophets, and Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) received prophethood at age 40. However, Hazrat Isa (Jesus, A.S) is traditionally believed to have been given prophethood at a younger age, but he is not listed among the options. Therefore, 'None of these' is the most accurate choice.

Hazrat Yahya (AS), known as John the Baptist, was sent to the people of Israel according to Islamic tradition. This is consistent with historical and religious texts that place his mission among the Israelites.

The mother of Hazrat Yousaf (عليه السلام) is Raheel (also known as Rachel). She is well-known in Islamic tradition as the wife of Prophet Yaqub (Jacob) and mother of Yousaf (Joseph).

Hazrat Loot (AS) was the nephew of Hazrat Ibrahim (AS), as mentioned in Islamic tradition and the Quran. This familial relationship is well established in Islamic teachings.

According to Islamic tradition, Hazrat Musa (AS) died on Mount Abarim (also spelled Abareem), which is located in the region of present-day Israel or Jordan. This is consistent with option C.

Shaddad was a king of the tribe of 'Aad, which lived in the Arabian Peninsula (not Yemen). Prophet Hood (AS) was sent to guide the people of 'Aad. Therefore, option B is correct.

Hazrat Ibraheem (AS) traveled to Syria after leaving Hazrat Hajirah and Hazrat Ismaeel in the But'ha valley. Historical Islamic texts often mention Syria as the region where he went next, making option C correct.

Hazrat Zakariya (a.s) was a contemporary of Hazrat Isa (Jesus, a.s) according to Islamic tradition, as Zakariya was the father of Hazrat Yahya (John the Baptist), who lived during the time of Hazrat Isa (a.s).

Islamic tradition commonly holds that Prophet Noah (Hazrat Nuh A.S) lived for approximately 950 years. This is supported by several narrations, including the view of Qatadah and Ibn Kathir's Tafsir, which state that Noah lived 950 years in total: 300 years before his prophethood, 300 years calling his people, and 350 years after the Flood. Other narrations mention slightly different figures, such as 1050 or 1700 years, but 950 years is the most widely accepted and cited lifespan. Therefore, the correct answer is D (950).

Hazrat Yaqoob (A.S), also known as Jacob, had twelve sons who became the ancestors of the twelve tribes of Israel. Among these sons, Yahooda (Judah) is traditionally considered the ancestor of the tribe of Judah, from which the term 'Jew' is derived. Lawi (Levi) was another son of Yaqoob and is considered the ancestor of the Levites, a priestly class among the Jews, but the Jewish people as a whole descend from all twelve sons, not only Lawi. Therefore, the son of Hazrat Yaqoob (A.S) whose offspring are broadly identified as the Jews is Yahooda (Judah).

Hazrat Yaqoob (A.S) had twelve sons, and the descendants of his son Yahooda (Judah) are traditionally considered the ancestors of the Jewish people. Therefore, Yahooda is the correct answer.

According to Islamic tradition, Hazrat Adam (A.S) had two sons, Qabil (Cain) and Habil (Abel). This is the commonly accepted number of his sons in Islamic teachings.

Warqa bin Naufal was a Christian monk who lived during the time of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH). He was known for his knowledge of the scriptures and recognized the prophethood of Muhammad. Therefore, his religion was Christianity, not the 'Deen of Hazrat Ibrahim a.s'.

"Ahsan ul Qasas" is a term used in the Quran to refer to the story of Prophet Yusuf (Hazrat Yousuf A.S). Therefore, the life history described by "Ahsan ul Qasas" is that of Hazrat Yousuf (A.S).

Hazrat Umar Ibn Al As (R.A) is historically known for destroying the idol Manat during the early Islamic period, as part of the efforts to eliminate idolatry.

Nazareth is historically recognized as the town in Israel where Hazrat Issa (A.S), known as Jesus in Christianity, spent his youth. This is well-documented in religious texts and historical accounts.

Hazrat Maryam (Mary), known as Maryam bint Imran in Islamic tradition, was the daughter of Imran and from a prophetic lineage. She was dedicated to the service of Allah and remained a virgin, thus having no husband. She was under the care of the prophet Zakariyya, who is sometimes referred to as her brother-in-law due to familial ties through marriage, but not as a biological brother. Her son was Prophet Isa (Jesus), who is recognized as a prophet in Islam. Other family members such as her father Imran and the prophets Musa (Moses) and Harun (Aaron) are also from the prophetic lineage. Therefore, among the options given, Hazrat Maryam is the correct answer as she is the woman whose father, husband (in the sense of guardian or close familial protector), brother (brother-in-law), and son were all prophets or from prophetic lineage. The claim that her husband was a prophet is understood in the context of Zakariyya's guardianship rather than a marital relationship. This is consistent with Islamic teachings and Quranic narratives.

According to Islamic tradition, Prophet Nuh (Noah) (A.S) is considered the first prophet after Adam and is traditionally credited with many early human advancements. While there is no explicit detailed hadith or Quranic verse stating he invented the comb, classical Islamic teachings and scholarly narrations often attribute the invention of basic tools like the comb to early prophets such as Nuh (A.S). The other options (Daud, Ibrahim, Sulaiman) are not traditionally linked to the invention of the comb. Therefore, option A is the most accurate answer based on Islamic tradition.

According to authentic Islamic traditions, including Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, Hazrat Adam (AS) was created with a height of sixty cubits. A cubit is generally considered to be about 18 inches (1.5 feet), so sixty cubits translate to approximately 90 feet. This is the most commonly cited figure in reliable Islamic sources. Although some narrations mention other figures like 80 feet, the majority and most authoritative sources state 90 feet as his height.

Qaroon (Korah) was a treasurer during the reign of Prophet Suleman (Solomon) (A.S), known for his immense wealth and arrogance. He is not associated with the times of Prophets Ibrahim, Musa, or Yaqoob (A.S).

According to Islamic tradition, Hud-Hud informed Prophet Sulaiman that Queen Balqees and her followers were worshiping idols, not the sun, moon, or stars. Therefore, the correct answer is D.

Hazrat Idrees (A.S) is traditionally recognized in Islamic teachings as the first man to write and the first prophet to teach writing and knowledge to humanity.

The boat of Hazrat Noah (A.S) is commonly known as the 'Ark.' In Arabic, it is referred to as 'Safinat Nuh' (سفينة نوح), which translates to Noah's ship or Ark. None of the options exactly spell 'Ark,' but option B 'Arc' is the closest phonetically and conceptually to 'Ark.' The other options (Curve, Arrow, Arrec) are unrelated terms. Therefore, the correct answer should be option B 'Arc' as the closest representation of 'Ark.'
