Importance of belief in Khatam-e-Nabuwat for a Muslim is explained in this app.

Khatme Nabuwat, Finality of the Prophet of Sayyidunah Hazrat Muhammad (SAW)

Risalah or belief in prophethood is one of the seven articles of faith. Prophethood is the channel of communication between God Almighty and humanity, this is the medium through which the human being is able to understand the reason for creation, and realize the will of the creator. Through this medium the humans understand and comprehend the magnitude of benefit in applying the will of the Lord and severity of detriment in neglecting it. As Muslims God has ordained for us to believe in all prophets from Adam to Jesus, culminating in the belief in Muhammad (SAW) as the messenger to all mankind regardless of colour, race, tongue or ethnicity. The belief in the Prophethood of The Beloved, The Most Noble Muhammad (SAW) is incomplete, deficient and curtailed unless one believes that he is the Final Prophet of God and there is to be no Prophet after him. The slightest denial or defiance of this fundamental is sufficient to cast one out the fold of Islam and throw one into the camp of kufr and apostasy.

This brief article wishes to provide the reader with adequate proof for belief in the finality of the prophethood of Hazrat Muhammad (SAW) and show that He is the final and the last Prophet of Allah and there is to be no new prophet after him.

As this is a matter of aqeedah (dogma), we must begin with highlighting the sources of law, which are acceptable when determining aqeedah qatiya (belief which is certain and necessary in order for one to be classified as a Muslim). Therefore the mutakalimun (dialectics) say that aqeedah can only be formulated from a source that is Qat’i-ul-thabut (definite in text) and Qat’i-ud-dalalah (definite in meaning).

This means that there must be certainty that the source of the belief is from Allah or his Messenger, hence definite in text.

Secondly the source must be unequivocal, unambiguous and explicit in what is being said. An example of this is the belief in tawhid, the oneness of Allah. It is mentioned amongst other places, in Surah Ikhlas, (Say, He is Allah) states in Almuhkam that the words Khatim and Khatamah with regards to everything means its end and its termination.

This verse is an unequivocal statement from the Qur’an, which states that Muhammad (SAW) has concluded the line of prophets, and that he is the last and final Prophet of God.

Finality of Prophethood and Coming of Jesus in the Last Days:

A question arises here, we all believe that in the last days before doomsday, Jesus Christ Peace be upon him will descend to the World again, lead the Muslim army against the Kuffar and Dajjal, Kill Dajjal the Antichrist and bring all misguidance to an end. The question is, does the reappearance of Jesus Christ, who was a prophet to the Israelites, negate the finality of the prophethood of Muhammad (SAW).

The Importance of belief in Khatam-e-Nabuwat for a Muslim in the present times, is clearly stated in this course. What beliefs should be believed regarding Khatam e Nabuwat and those matters are highlighted whose perpetrator will get excluded from the boundaries of Islam. Moreover, the evidences of Khatam e Nabuwat in the Quran and Hadith have also been explained.

In This Application "Khatm-e-Nubuwat Course" Describe that the Holy Prophet (SAW) has been mentioned as Khatam ul Nabiyeen, translated as last of the Prophets.

Almighty Allah clearly says in Holy Quran:

"Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the Messenger of Allah, and the Seal of the Prophets: and Allah has full knowledge of all things. (The Holy Quran, Al-Ahzab 33:40)"

Thus, finalization of the prophet hood has been clearly declared by Almighty Allah himself. There are about one hundred (100) verses of Holy Quran and more than two hundred (200) Sayings of the Holy Prophet on Khatm-e-Nubuwwat, which clearly and preciously convey that the practice of appointing Prophets has been finished after Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H).
