The Poof, There It Is Theory is one of the most popular theories used to explain the creation of the universe. The theory is quite complex but it can be simplified to something like this

In the beginning, there was no universe, and then;

POOF!

There it was.

I think there are 20 prophets mentioned by name in Quran. And in addition to that, there are three more, who are called as messenger only, they are Hud, Saleh, and Shu 'aib (named as messengers in 26125/ 143/ 178 respectively)

The term 'Scripture' is consistantly associated with 'prophets' in the Quran.

If we count the number of prophets named in the Quran we find a total of twenty prophets mentioned by their names. Each one of these 20 is specifically called a prophet in the Quran.

If we read verses 83-86 of Sura 6 we read 18 names, starting with Abraham and ending with Lot. Verse 89 confirms that all these 18 were prophets of God

"These are the ones to whom we have given the Scripture wisdom and prophethood"

These prophets are

1- Abraham (also named as a prophet in 1941 and 337)

2- Isaac (also in 1949 and 37112)

3- Jacob (also in 1949)

4- Noah (also in 337)

5- David (also in 1755)

6- Solomon

7- Job

8- Joseph

9- Moses (lso in 1951 and 337)

10- Aaron (also in 1953)

11- Zachariah

12- John (also in 339)

13- Jesus (also in 1930 and 337)

14- Elias

15- Ismail (1954)

16- Elisha

17- Jonah

18- Lot

If we add the names of the two prophets

19- Idris (named a prophet in 1956)

20- Muhammad (who is confirmed to be the last of the prophets (3340)

We find that the total number of those who are named as prophets in the Quran is 20

zul kifal is described as described as steadfast, patient and righteous 2185 and 3848 but not as prophet or a messenger

Adam , described as one of the chosen 333 ??.. not associated with the word messenger or prophet

Luqman described as one endowed with wisdom 3112 not as a messenger or a prophet.

could any one cross check,and comment on my above post? and if the above one is correct , it is an interesting find because that makes Quran as the 19th and final scripture.
