Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner asks in his questions: Who was the first of the prophets: Idris or Noah (peace be upon them both)?
Answer:
The first of the prophets after shirk (associating partners with Allah) occurred was Noah, after it took hold in the community. As for before that, it was Adam (peace be upon him), who was the first messenger and the first of the prophets. Adam is our father (peace be upon him), so he was the first messenger and the first prophet. His descendants were upon Islam for ten generations, then shirk occurred among the people of Noah, so Allah sent Noah to them, and Noah became the first messenger after the occurrence of shirk. Yes.
