    Fifth:Waraqa b. Nawfal was a cousin of Khadija. When the first revelation came, the Noble Messenger (Upon whom be blessings and peace) was deeply shaken. Khadija described the event to the well-known Waraqa b. Nawfal, who told her to send him to him. God’s Messenger (UWBP) went to Waraqa and told him how the revelation had come. Waraqa said: “Good news, O Muhammad! I testify that you are the awaited prophet who was foretold by Jesus.”(*[1])
