Martyrdom in the Shii and Babi Religions

A prophet (nabi) or messenger (rasul) of God is a human being to whom God gives His guidance and whom He charges with the task of conveying that guidance to the people so that they recognise the oneness of God and forbid wrong and enjoin what is right. A prophet and a messenger both speak by divine inspiration or as the interpreter through whom the will of God is expressed. He is sent to communicate to his knowledge of the unseen (supernatural) that Allah (s.w.t.) has informed him about, and is a person gifted with profound moral insight and exceptional powers of expression. Whereas a messenger is sent with a special mission added to the foundation of prophecy. He is the bearer of a special mission that includes the completion of a plea that, if breached, necessitates destruction or torment. Allah says "...so that people should not have a plea against Allah after them (coming of) messengers."[Qur'an Al-Nisaa 4:165]
