Former Messengers

Allah has granted His favour to the believers when He sent them a messenger from among themselves—reciting His verses, purifying them, and teaching them the Book and wisdom, though they were previously in clear error.

3:164Allah verily hath shown grace to the believers by sending unto them a messenger of their own who reciteth unto them His revelations, and causeth them to grow, and teacheth them the Scripture and wisdom; although before (he came to them) they were in flagrant error.
