Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The Quran repeatedly mentions the Israelites killing their prophets unjustly, as in the Almighty's saying: "Is it that whenever a Messenger comes to you with what your souls desire not, you are proud? Some, you disbelieve and others, you slay" and "and kill the prophets unjustly." Some exegetes have mentioned that they killed Isaiah, Zechariah, and John (Yahya), but no authentic text in the confirms this, and the information may have been taken from the People of the Book.
