کیا قرآن و حدیث میں ایسا کوئی ثبوت ہے کہ ایک لاکھ چوبیس ہزار پیغمبر آئے ہیں۔ حدیث کا درجہ اور حدیث کا حوالہ بھی دیں۔

قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كَمْ وَفَّى عِدَّةُ الْأَنْبِيَاءِ قَالَ مِائَةُ أَلْفٍ وَأَرْبَعَةٌ وَعِشْرُونَ أَلْفًا الرُّسُلُ مِنْ ذَلِكَ ثَلَاثُ مِائَةٍ وَخَمْسَةَ عَشَرَ جَمًّا غَفِيرًا‏.‏
