Their witness in support of the prophethood of Muhammad has been presented because the prophecies which were made in the earlier divine scriptures about the coming of a prophet were seen to be most appropriately fitting to him, and his dawah was exactly the same which the earlier prophets had been making. Therefore, from amongst the Christians, the embracing of Islam by the king of Abyssinia (now Ethiopia), Najashi (Negus) was quite significant. Since the polytheists of Makkah were ignorant of what prophet hood is and the people of the Book knew that, the polytheists of Makkah were asked to find out from the people of the Book that previously also Divine messengers had been coming or not and whether they were men or something else.
