In reply to: Abu-Ali 's message, "The finality of Prophethood" on 04:31:06 02/05/03 Wed

As Salaamu Alaikoum,

Allah says in the Quran the interpretation of the meaning:

�but he is the Messenger of Allaah and the last (end) of the Prophets� [al-Ahzaab 33:40]

Why it did not say the last of the Messengers � the end of the Message does not mean the end of Prophethood, but the end of Prophethood does mean the end of the Message. Hence the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: �There will be no Prophet after me,� and he did not say, there will be no Messenger after me.

Thus we know that there is no Messenger and no Prophet after him (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him); he was the last of the Prophets and of the Messengers, (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him).

AND ALLAH KNOWS BEST
