The Quran states that Hazrat Shuayb (a.s) was appointed by God to be a prophet to the people who lived east of Mount Sinai, the people of Midian. The people of this land were said to be especially notorious for cheating others through dishonesty and for idolatry. Hazrat Shuayb (a.s) prophecy mainly involved calling the Midianites to the correct path of God and forbidding them to worship false gods.The preaching of Hazrat Shuayb (a.s), however, is covered nowhere in the Hebrew BibleThe tomb of Hazrat Shuayb (a.s) is well preserved in Jordan; it is located 2 km (1.2 mi) west of the town of Mahis in an area called Wadi Hazrat Shuayb (a.s), although Islam also attributes other sites located in the Sinai Peninsula and historical Palestine.
