We don't know. That Prophet that was sent for every single nation is Muhammad (pbuh). It doesn't matter that he was of Arab descent or that Allah chose the Arabic language as the language for His religion. Islam is a religion for all people, places, and times. This is all that really counts. Even if you knew the names and message of the Prophets that visited the above places, all of those prophets would be obliged to follow the message of Muhammad as he is the seal of all the Prophets before him.

just bouncing this back to [MENTION=2092]czgibson[/MENTION] ( too lazy to scroll all the way and find the post, sorry!)
There may well have been prophets sent to those places, but the thing is those places arenr the same places we think of today when we think of japan etc. Kinda random and probably very irrelevent, but just my two cents( or pence even)
 
Greetings,

Thank you for the replies; I learned something today.

So it turns out that you don't know. Are there estimates as to how many prophets existed in total vs. the list of known prophets up until the very last?

Yes, cinnamon rolls, you are correct. Countries' names and land borders have changed over time.

This is off topic but since you asked, it is estimated that there were almost 124,000 prophets in total but only 25 of them are mentioned by name in the Quran. The first of them was Adam :as:, the father of all human beings, and the last of them was Muhammad :saws:. Allah says that he has sent a prophet in every nation.
