A general term such as al-anbiya’ (the prophets) is not automatically limited to members of one ethnic community. Restriction to a specific group requires a genuine contextual indicator, not merely a claim of communal association.
In language, general expressions can be qualified by context, but the evidence for such qualification must be shown. Consider “respect scholars”: it does not mean “respect only scholars from my city” unless the discourse establishes that limitation.
Similarly, respecting prophets concerns prophetic truth and office, rather than turning their honor into a monopoly claimed by one lineage.
