Gradual Process
So, the Prophets, Adam, (Praise be upon him) Noah, (Praise be upon him) Abraham, (Praise be upon him) Jacob, (Praise be upon him) the Prophets of Israel and Moses, (Praise be upon him) Jesus, (Praise be upon him) and Muhammad (Praise be upon him), are positioned in the ladder of progression. Each is still advancing towards the pick of variety. If we place the names of the Prophets of other religions alongside this list, the expectation of evolution and advancement of religions places Islam at the tip of the ladder, and the gradual process of religions becomes clearer in our minds.

And learn a lesson from the lives of those in the past
