Is it true that only men were sent as prophets and messengers. And if so, why?
Thank you for the opportunity to ask this question.

In the name of Allah, the Most Beneficent, the Most Merciful
And All praises due to Allah, Lord of the Worlds,
And may He send his Peace and Blessings upon Mohammed and the Family of Mohammed, the Imams and the Mahdis,
All doors are open for men and women. And there were many women who reached extremely high levels. There are women who reached the level of being one of the infallible women such as Zainab peace be upon her. There are women whom reached the level of prophethood such as Mary (peace be upon her) whom spoke to angels and received revelations. There are women whom are better than most men, even better than most of the prophets and messengers such as Fatimah Al Zahra (peace be upon her). But it is true that only men were appointed by God as Prophets and Messengers whom would face the people publicly. There are many reasons for this, one of them being that most human beings since Adam and until now would not accept a female prophet or messenger.
