Assalamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullahi wa Barakatuh

My brothers, my sisters, all the messengers of Allah were sent in order to remind mankind to worship their maker

Allah Almighty alone without association of partners which means no act of worship to be rendered to anyone or anything

besides he who made you. Now if you look at the messengers and the detail in the Qur'an of the messengers and their people

some of these messengers Allah's mentioned in great detail about prior to their birth and the birth and how it was and the people at the time of the birth

and when they were little and how they grew up and then thereafter what happened

as they grew older and when they got their profitude when they spoke to their people how the people reacted and what happened and what didn't happen and the details and how the ending was

Allah made mention of their call for example and then how long it took for them to respond how they responded some of them did this some of them did that

the punishment how it came when it came and what happened some of them Allah mentions no detail whatsoever

very little very very little some of them are not even mentioned in the Qur'an but I'm talking about those who are mentioned in the Qur'an

then there are some whom the detail is a little bit not so much just about how they called their people and

what it is that was the problem at the time and what exactly they said how the people responded it is very very

very important to know that all of them were calling people towards the Almighty not towards themselves

they were calling their people to worshiping their maker alone and they were telling them to be upright in terms of goodness

they're supposed to be upholding the values that are of the highest possible level the Qur'an is full of these beautiful messages

now if you look at the people for example over a time and from before

each messenger was sent mainly to remind his people of one major matter over and above the issue that we spoke about of worship

so together with the matter of worship there was one major thing wrong in the people but

shaytan has become an expert over time take a look at Adam alaihi salam's time shaytan there was one enemy he was shaytan over time

shaytan began to gain experience and he started learning that okay I have distracted man in this way

I've distracted him in this way I succeeded here I failed there this is the reason why I failed
