Food for thought

In the Holy Qur'an, Adam was mentioned 25 times, Noah was mentioned 43 times, Abraham was mentioned 69 times, Moses was mentioned 136 times, David was mentioned 16 times, Jesus was mentioned 25 times and Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was mentioned 4 times..

{And, indeed We have sent Messengers before you (O Muhammad sallallaahu'alayhi wasallam), of some of them We have related to you their story. And some We have not related to you their story, and it was not given to any Messenger that he should bring a sign except by the Leave of Allah..} [Ghaafir 40:78]
