In the Quran

وَكَذَٰلِكَ جَعَلْنَا لِكُلِّ نَبِىٍّ عَدُوًّۭا مِّنَ ٱلْمُجْرِمِينَ ۗ وَكَفَىٰ بِرَبِّكَ هَادِيًۭا وَنَصِيرًۭا

اور اسی طرح ہم نے گنہگاروں میں سے ہر پیغمبر کا دشمن بنا دیا۔ اور تمہارا پروردگار ہدایت دینے اور مدد کرنے کو کافی ہے

Even so have We appointed unto every prophet an opponent from among the guilty; but Allah sufficeth for a Guide and Helper.
