Before the advent of Mohammad Mostafä (SA) when Ghoraish were spoken to, of the stories of the ancient people who rejected faith and slayed their apostles; they used to say:- ``We are not like them.'' Then they earnesly swore by Allah that if a warner was sent to them they would be the most guided people among the other nations.
They did say so, but when the greatest of the apostles came to them with the wonderful Qurän, and so many miracles, they not only rejected God's Message; they also challenged and even waged many wars against the Messenger of God, and they did what they should not have done it!
