Re: Interfaith Dialogue (Prophets) - Islam and Christianity
about only men being sent as messengers....
Quran 16:43
And We sent not (as Our messengers) before thee other than **men* whom We inspired - Ask the followers of the Remembrance if ye know not!*
also mentioned in 12:109 and 21:7....
the word used here in arabic is "rijaal" which specifically means "men" and cannot be used as a common term to include men and women....
