Actually, it is known that there are many names of prophets in Islam, numbering in the hundreds of thousands, even countless. But out of the many names of prophets, there are only 25 sequential prophets that Muslims must believe in and know. Among these sequential prophets, they all have diverse stories with wisdom that can be learned by Muslims.

As for the difference between a prophet and a messenger, a prophet is a person who receives revelation from Allah SWT for himself and is not obliged to convey it to his people. While a messenger comes from the word 'risala' which means conveying. From that meaning, a prophet is a human being who is given revelation and trust from Allah SWT and is obliged to convey it to his people. That is why there are several names of prophets who have titles or nicknames as ulul azmi with extraordinary firmness and admirable determination. Therefore, according to various sources, here is the complete order of prophets along with their titles and tasks. (kpl/dhm)
