Episode Transcript

Zaki (00:01):
Listen to this one, captain Sohail, a rising leader
from the desert who will be ashepherd of people. Who do you
think that could be?

Captain Suhail (00:10):
Ah, easy. That must be that camel merchant we
met last week. He shepherdscamels through the desert all
the time.

Zaki (00:18):
Yes. Of course. He definitely knows his way around
the desert. Good thinking,captain. Here's another one, and
he will split the moon in two.
Do you think our camel merchantfriend can do that?

Captain Suhail (00:31):
Split the moon, Zucky. It has to be someone
stronger. Perhaps it's thatblacksmith who splits metal with
ease.

Zaki (00:38):
Oh, brilliant. He splits metal all day long. Different.
Right? You're absolutely right,captain.
And look at this prophecy. Hewill be a mercy to all of
creation. Who fits this one,captain?

Captain Suhail (00:53):
Mercy. Mercy. Oh, I've got it. The baker. He
says mercy, mercy all day long.

Zaki (01:01):
You are absolutely right, captain. Why didn't I think of
that? It's settled then.

Captain Suhail (01:05):
Indeed, young feathers. We have cracked the
mystery wide open.

Zaki (01:10):
Absolutely. We make such a great team. So what did we
crack?

Captain Suhail (01:15):
The prophecy refers to that camel man. But
you said blacksmith. No, my dearman. Why must you bring skin
color

Zaki (01:24):
No. That's not what I'm saying. And and what about the
baker?

Captain Suhail (01:28):
Well, he's French or Persian. You
know, merci... merci

Zaki (01:34):
Oh, brother. These prophecies are supposed to be
about one person, not threedifferent people.

Captain Suhail (01:39):
Well said this is true. Come zaki, I see there
be one last prophecy. Read it.

Zaki (01:48):
Warning. Do not attempt to split objects without proper
supervision. Severe injury mayoccur. Captain, this prophecy
sounds awfully dangerous.

Captain Suhail (01:59):
Keep away from open flames and sharp edges.
Clearly, this prophecy warns offiery battles and fierce
warriors.

Zaki (02:10):
Caution, may cause dizziness or confusion. Seek
immediate help if symptomspersist. Oh, no, captain. This
prophecy just gets scarier.Failure to follow these
instructions could result intotal catastrophe.

Captain Suhail (02:23):
Result in total catastrophe.

Zaki (02:26):
Catastrophe, captain?

Captain Suhail (02:28):
Total catastrophe, young feathers. We
might be doomed.

Zaki (02:33):
Wait a minute. This isn't a prophecy at all. It's a
warning label for a woodsplitting ax.

Captain Suhail (02:39):
Aye. This be a bit embarrassing. Perhaps we
should stick to storytelling andleave prophecy hunting to the
real experts.

Zaki (02:47):
Oh, feathers. What a fiasco. Let's pretend this never
happened, captain.

Captain Suhail (02:52):
Thank Allah No one is listening.

Zaki (02:58):
Meraj Digital presents the amazing stories with Zaki the
Hoopoe. Episode 21, the promiseof the last messenger.
Salam my brilliant friends. It'sme, Zaki, your feathered

(03:19):
storyteller, here with anotheradventure. Now before we dive
in, let me tell you aboutsomething super interesting,
prophecies.
A prophecy is like a messagefrom Allah sent through his
prophets telling people aboutsomething that will happen in
the future. It's kind of like apromise, but one filled with

(03:41):
wisdom and guidance.

Captain Suhail (03:43):
Ahoy, Zaki. So you're saying these prophets
could predict the future.

Zaki (03:48):
Well, captain, it's not quite like checking the weather
before a voyage. These weren'tjust guesses. They were divine
messages from Allah. And youknow, prophecy and prophet sound
really similar, don't they? WhenI was younger, I got them mixed
up all the time.
I once called prophet Suleimanprophecy Suleiman. Oh, you

(04:10):
should have seen the other birdslaughing at me. Can you imagine?

Captain Suhail (04:15):
I can. I would have a grand old time. But tell
me, Zaki, were these propheciesalways true?

Zaki (04:24):
Absolutely, captain. Prophecies were sent to give
people hope and prepare them forwhat's to come. And do you know
what the most special prophecyof all was? It was the promise
of the last messenger, someonewho would guide everyone
everywhere. Let's explore howthis amazing promise unfolded
starting from the verybeginning.

(04:49):
Our first stop is with prophetAdam, the very first human and
the very first prophet. AfterAdam and Hawa came to earth,
Allah gave them a very importantpromise. He would send
messengers to guide theirchildren. Adam shared this
promise with his family, tellingthem that no matter how lost
people might feel, messengerswould always bring guidance to

(05:12):
show the right path.

Captain Suhail (05:13):
So Adam was the first one to hear this great
promise. Sounds like he wassetting up the map for the whole
journey ahead. A good captainalways sets the course.

Zaki (05:26):
Exactly. Can you imagine being the first person ever to
receive such a promise? It waslike planting the first seed of
hope for the entire world. Next,we fly to Prophet News Time. Oh,
Nu tried so hard to guide hispeople, but most of them didn't
listen.

(05:47):
Even after the great flood,Allah reminded Nu and his
followers that his promisehadn't changed. He would
continue to send messengers toguide humanity.

Captain Suhail (05:57):
No one is famous ark. I tell you, a fine ship is
a sailor's best friend. I wonderif he had a crew as loyal as
mine.

Zaki (06:07):
Well, captain, I don't think news people were as
reliable as a well trained crew.Most of them ignored him. And
then came prophet Ibrahim, oneof the most beloved prophets of
all time. Do you remember theKaaba he built with his son
Ishmael? It wasn't just a placeof worship.

(06:29):
It was a symbol of hope. Ibrahimprayed for a future messenger
who would guide people withwisdom, teach them kindness, and
purify their hearts. Now let'stalk about Prophet Musa. Oh,

(06:50):
Musa was amazing. He led hispeople to freedom and taught
them about Allah.
But did you know he also toldthem to look out for a prophet
like himself? Someone who wouldguide people with strength and
compassion?

Captain Suhail (07:05):
A leader like Musa, that's no small prophecy.
He was a man of action, wasn'the? I admire a strong leader who
keeps his crew on course.

Zaki (07:16):
Absolutely, captain. And then came prophet Esa. One of
the greatest prophets of alltime. Oh, Esa was kind, wise,
and full of miracles. He healedthe sick, gave sight to the
blind, and even brought peopleback to life by Allah's will.

(07:37):
Some people call him Jesus, andtrust me, we haven't even
scratched the surface of all ofhis incredible stories. But
don't worry, we'll tell you allabout him another time. Hey, did
I just make a prophecy?

Captain Suhail (07:49):
Oh ho. Looks like we got a little prophet
bird here. I better startwriting these down in my
captain's log.

Zaki (07:57):
So what do all these prophecies point to? From Adam
to Nu, Ibrahim to Musa, andfinally, Esa, they all spoke of
one person. Someone who wouldguide not just one group of
people, but all of humanity.Someone who would bring mercy,

(08:19):
wisdom, and the final message.Can you guess who it is?

Captain Suhail (08:23):
Oh. Oh. I love guessing games. A great sailor.
No?
Fine. I give up. Tell mealready.

Zaki (08:33):
So you see, my friends, this wasn't just a story about
one prophet. It was a story ofpromises kept and guidance sent
by Allah, all leading to thearrival of the last messenger,
Prophet Muhammad. Peace andblessings be upon him. He was
the prophet all these prophecieswere talking about. It was his

(08:54):
job to complete Allah's messagefor the world.
And guess what? His teachingscontinue to guide us today. But
don't flap your wings too fast.We won't be getting into all the
amazing stories of ProphetMuhammad just yet. Those are
tales for another day.
Oh, and believe me, there's somuch to tell. From his childhood

(09:15):
to his incredible journey ofspreading Allah's message, his
stories are one of the mostbeautiful you'll ever hear. But
for now, I'll leave youwondering because we've only
just opened the door to hisincredible life. And speaking of
opening doors, you won't wannamiss our next story. In the next
adventure, we'll travel back tothe year of the elephant where

(09:36):
something extraordinaryhappened.
There were elephants, a fierceking, and oh, I'm saying too
much already. You'll have tocome back and find out.

Captain Suhail (09:45):
A fine journey through history, Zucky, and not
a single storm in sight. Well,maybe a few, but that just made
it more exciting.

Zaki (09:56):
Until next time my friends, stay curious, stay
kind, and keep your hearts opento learning. Salam, and see you
soon.
