The Messenger of Allah must have the nature of a good communicator or communicator. Every teaching of Allah SWT will be conveyed to mankind as a guide to life. This means that the messenger cannot keep the teachings and truths received by Allah SWT so that the messenger cannot have the nature of Kitman.

If the apostle has the Kitman trait, it means that the order given by Allah SWT is to keep the knowledge and teachings. This trait is mentioned in the Qur'an, Surat Al-A'raf, verse 62.

I convey to you the messages of my Lord and I am your sincere adviser and I know from Allah that which you do not know."Aku menyampaikan kepada kalian pesan-pesan Rabb kalian dan aku adalah penasihat kalian yang tulus dan aku mengetahui dari Allah apa yang kalian tidak ketahui."

This means:

"I convey to you the commandments of my Lord and I advise you, and I know from Allah what you do not know." (Surah Al-A'raf: 62)

Fathonah (smart)

In spreading the teachings of Allah SWT, the apostles need special abilities and strategies so that they can be well received. To achieve this, high-level intelligence is needed.

Intelligence is needed to face the obstacles that arise in the spread of the teachings of Islam. If the apostles do not have the right intelligence, of course the apostles will have difficulty in conveying that the teachings of Islam are the right teachings.
