50 instances of hakeem in nominal adjective form found in 50 verses across 12 surahs in the Quran confirm that God has raised messenger from every community to recite His revelations to teach them the scripture and wisdom in order to purify them, while messengers are bearers of good news as well as bearers of warnings leaving no doubt in our hearts to focus on them as persons to make us losers in the Hereafter. There is also a confirmation that our shahaadah is there is no god except God, even though millions of so called Muslims have corrupted it adding Muhammad’s name as messengers of God to it while God being the Almighty, the Wise has confirmed it, and are focusing on him as a person instead of focusing on what has been sent down to him is the Quran, a complete (3:23) and the final edition of scripture (33:40).
Thus, upon reviewing the instances we have the opportunity to confirm that (1) the role of messengers is to recite to the people what God has sent down to them, (2) God given shahaadah is there is no god except God, which perfectly conforms to the faith created by God in our hearts at our birth (30:30), (3) Jesus, son of Mary has been put to death that many of us have confusion around it reflecting to the birth and death of Jesus to be made a portent for the people of the world, and (4) prophets/messengers are human beings, and to make mistake by them are not unusual. However, we are individually accountable to God for our own sins for what we believe and what we practice, while God guides whomever He wills and He lets go astray whomever He wills.
Peaceful Friday, salaam and God bless.
