I fail to understand what do you want to prove by this verse.

I fail to understand what do you want to prove by this verse. How does it affect the relationship between Prophethood and messengership? And who does not need Allah's help in this life and in the next? The "believers" will be helped by Allah in Akhirat-does not this word cover the prophets too? Q. 22:AMIN? WHY THE QUR'AN DOES NOT CALL THE HOLY PROPHET AS AL- The article, 'The through non-Muslim eyes', by Prof.

Bomoklishna Poo, published in the Light contains the following sentence: "Muhammad has been admitted by friends and foes as Al-Amin (the trustworthy)." The question is: "Why does not the Holy Qur'an call him by that title when: Nuh (Qur'an 26:107), Hud (Qur'an 26:125, 7:68), Salih (Qur'an 26:143), Lut (Qur'an 26:162), Shu'aib (Qur'an 26:178), Yusuf (Qur'an 12:54), Musa (Qur'an 28:26, 44:18) and even the Jinn 'Ifrit (Qur'an 27:39) have that epithet attached to their names in the Holy Qur'an?" Could you please point out any ayat of the Holy Qur'an wherein the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) is called Al-Amin?

I do accept the Holy Prophet as Al-Amin as it is. A. A very interesting question. You are right that the Holy Prophet (s.a.w.) has not been mentioned with this title in the Qur'an. We do not know why. May be it is because his trustworthiness was an established fact which was undisputably recognised even by his enemies; and as such it needed no vouching by the Qur'an. For example, the Qur'an does not mention about mother of any prophet, except Hazrat Maryam, that she was chaste.

It was because only Hazrat Maryam needed this vouching. Q. 23: SOME SPECIAL OBLIGATIONS AND PRIVILEGES OF THE HOLY PROPHET I have read in "Your Questions Answered' that the Prophet had nine wives when he died. Aren't all Muslims supposed to have not more than four wives at a time? A. The Holy Prophet (s.a.w.a.) had some special duties and some special privileges. For example, it was wajib for him to pray tahajjud; to cleanse the teeth before every wuzu, etc. etc.

Likewise, he was allowed to marry more than four wives (with many conditions). Q. 24: THE BOOK REVEALED TO PROPHET MUHAMMAD (SA.WA.) Was given any book by God? A. Yes. He was given the Qur'an by Allah. As he is the Final Prophet, his Book is the last Book revealed by Allah. It was revealed to Muhammad (s.a.w.a.) as the Guidance for mankind. Q. 25: SHI'A BELIEF ABOUT QUR'AN What is the belief of the Shi'a about the Qur'an? A.
