The Prophet of Islam is the “Seal of Prophethood” - Al-Shia The Scientific and Cultural Website of Shia belief The Prophet of Islam is the “Seal of Prophethood” 2021-06-21 442 Views , Prophethood , The Seal of Prophethood The Prophet of Islam is the last Prophet of God and the hierarchy of prophethood ends with him. This is one of the necessary precepts of Islam.

What is meant by necessary is that whoever joins the ranks of the Muslims must understand that all Muslims believe this and that this is among their decisive beliefs. That is, just as those who have dealings with Muslims know that they emphasize the principle of unity, they must also know that the seal of the prophethood by the Prophet of Islam is also agreed to by all and there is no group of Muslims who are in anticipation of the coming of another prophet.

In truth, the movement of humanity upon its way towards perfection has passed through various states with sending of the prophets and they have attained a level upon this way so that they can stand on their own two feet. That is, by relying upon the universal teachings of Islam, they can solve their problems. In other words, Islam is the final law and it is the age of maturity of humanity.

From the point of view of belief, it is the most perfect of contents of religious thought and from the point of view of practice, it has so been formulated that it is coordinated with every age and every generation.

The necessity of this issue — we have pointed out that whoever deals with Muslims, wherever in the world they may be, may come to know that they believe in the seal of prophethood with the Prophet of Islam and that if a person accepts Islam with sufficient reasons, they have no choice but to accept the ending of prophethood with him. And as in the previous lessons we have given sufficient proof of this, we must also accept this idea, which is one of the necessities of this religion. 2.

Verses of the Holy Qur’an are also clear proof of the end of prophethood with the Prophet of Islam. “Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the Apostle of God and the Seal of the Prophets: and God has full knowledge of all things.” (1) This verse was revealed when the idea of foster children was prevalent among the Arabs.
