Enoch, Eber, Shelah, Lot, Ishmael, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, Job, Jethro, Aaron, Ezekiel, David, Solomon, Elijah, Elisha, Jonah, Zacharias and John (peace upon them all) are the others. Al-Khidr, Daniel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Zoroaster, Bhudda, Ram and Mary could be prophet(ess)es, but we don't know and there is no real source to support that claim except that "a prophet was sent to every nation".

I know only me.
Of course I have heard some of the names mentioned above, but I don't have any proof to ascertain their existence or prophet hood.
More over, we can find a lot of anomalies in their lives if we study their lives- even if their existence could be established at all.
Integrate all good aspects from their lives and make yourself a prophet unto you.

Everyone on Earth today should re-discover the "Minor Prophet" Amos. His message to Israel in the Old Testament is extremely relevant to us now.

Prophets like funnana mentioned? But Jesus wasn't a prophet, but He did mention false prophets after Him, so I think He was talking about Mohammed
