Why the prophets were men and the answer to the question of the injustice of God's actions

Author
Abstract
The popular opinion among Islamic scholars is that most of God's prophets were men and God did not choose any woman to be a prophet. The proof of this point of view is the Quranic verses and Islamic traditions. Some have claimed the position of prophethood for a number of women by citing some verses and traditions, but what is obtained from those evidences is prophetic prophecy, not legislative prophecy, which is intended as a theological and religious issu. According to the famous view, the suspicion of incompatibility with God's justice has been raised and based on it, the divine origin of prophethood has been denied. In this article, by using the method of reporting and analysis (narrative and reason), the evidence of the famous point of view has been expressed and the doubt has been answered by explaining the philosophy of assigning prophecy to men.
