In many religious traditions, prophets are believed to have been chosen by God to do His work, rather than volunteering for the role. Prophets are seen as having a special connection to God and are tasked with conveying His message to the people.
prophets
the two types of prophets are major and minor. It major and minor is referred to as the length of their books not importance. major are: Isaiah, Lamentations, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel minor are: the 12 books between hosea to malachi
Samuel established institutions in order to train men for the office they were destined for. Here they studied law and its interpretation, along with sacred music and poetry. (see 1 Samuel 19).Another Answer:The concept of a group of Prophets or school of prophets is embedded deep within the world of the old testament though at many times they may be referred to as "wise men" or counselor's. It was custom of the period in which they lived that kings / rulers would have a group of "prophets" for want of a better word who they would seek to advise them on matters of state and religion.through out the bible we see this all over the place the first one i could find was in 1 Samuel 10:10 which saysWhen they arrived at Gibeah, a procession of prophets met him; the Spirit of God came upon him in power, and he joined in their prophesying.we also see in story's of Daniel whilst in exile and of moses during the exodus that both the king Nebuchadnezzar the king of Babylon and the Pharaoh of Egypt in the exodus had "adviser's" or prophets whom they sort. p
The distinction between major and minor prophets is purely based on the length of their book. Isaiah, Jermiah, and Ezekiel are the major prophets whose books are quite lengthy. In fact Isaiah has the longest book in the Bible by number of chapters. Then there are the minor prophets Hosea, Joel, Amos, Obadiah, Jonah, Micah, Nahum, Habbakuk, Zephaniah, Haggai, Zechariah, and Malachi. These prophets have much shorter books. Major and minor prophets are not distinguished because of their mesage, importance, or by who they were. They were divided this way because of the lenght of their book.
In the Quran, the terms "Nabi" (prophet) and "Rasul" (messenger) refer to individuals chosen by God to guide humanity. While all Messengers (Rasuls) are Prophets (Nabis), not all Prophets are Messengers. The Quran mentions 25 prophets by name, including well-known figures like Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, and Jesus, but the total number of prophets is believed to be much higher, with some Islamic traditions stating there are 124,000 prophets in total. The distinction lies in that a Rasul is given a specific mission or revelation to convey, while a Nabi continues the teachings of previous revelations.
Many prophets are buried in Khaif. Exact number is not known.

I do not think any kings were prophets except Jesus.
