(1:24) It should be noted that the above qualities of God have been declared to man in the opening chapter of the Holy Qur'an which must be repeated at least seventeen times every day in the prescribed compulsory prayers which a Muslim must offer, so that he may always remember that God is All-Merciful and All- Just and at the same time Absolute Sovereign of the Universe. It is for man to glorify God, rejoicing at His being All- Merciful as well as being warned of His Justice.

Thus he will guard against breaking the divine law and promote goodness in himself and to others, knowing that there will be a reward from the All-Just Master of the Day of Judgment. (3) RISALAT: THE APOSTLESHIP God alone and none else could ~ granted His creatures knowledge and guidance. With the creation of man began the divinely commissioned apostleship (Risalat) for the guidance of mankind. Every person on earth had a warner and guide, an apostle from God in his own language.

And for every people (was sent) an apostle; and when their apostle came, the matter between them was decided with equity and there shall not (in the least) be done (any) injustice. (10:47) And indeed raised We in every nation an apostle (of Ours), (preaching) that "Worship ye God (only) and shun ye (the worship) of idols" so of them there were some whom God guided, and of them were others on whom error was confirmed.

(16:36) Verily We sent thee with truth, as a bearer of glad tidings and a warner; and there is not a people but a warner hath gone among them. (35:24) And we sent not any apostle but with the language of the people that he might clearly explain (Our commandments) unto them; then God leaveth to stray whom He willeth and guideth whom He willeth, and He is the Mighty, the Wise. (14:4) A guide from God should necessarily be infallible, is.

sinless by nature, and all the apostles of God were naturally so. otherwise the one who is himself fallible cannot reasonably preach sinlessness to others.

The demand of Islam regarding the apostles of God is found in the following verse of the Holy Qur'an: Say ye (O Muslims!), "We believe in God and that which hath been sent down unto us and that which was sent down unto Abraham and Ishmael and Isaac and Jacob and the tribes, and which was given to Moses and Jesus, and that which was given unto the apostles from their Lord.
