Khatm-e-Nubuwwat means that
Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is the Last of the Prophets. The process and
routine of appointing Prophets and Messengers by Almighty Allah has been
terminated, finished, ended, stopped, and sealed. None will be appointed as
prophet after Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H). His prophet hood will continue
until the dooms day and even afterwards, only that person came claim to be
a Muslims who has belief in Khatm-e-Nubuwwat and confesses
“None is worth of worship except Allah; Muhammad (P.B.U.H) is
apostle of Allah”
Almighty Allah clearly
says in Holy Quran,
“Muhammad
(P.B.U.H) is not fathering any of your Men. However, he is the Messenger of
Almighty Allah and the Last / Seal of the Prophets. In addition, Almighty
Allah has complete knowledge of the things.”
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). Let us study some of the Sayings of holy Prophet
on this.
“I am the Last of the Prophets.
No Prophet is there after me.”
Saad
Bin Abi Waqaas narrates that the Holy Prophet P.B.U.H said to Ali
“Ali! You have the same status and relation
with me as Haroon (AS) had with Mosses (AS) with the exception that there
is no prophet after me.”
Hazrat Abu Amarah narrates, the
Holy prophet P.B.U.H Said
“I am the Last of the Prophets and you are last of the
Ummah.”
“I am the seal of the prophets and you are seal of Ummah.”
Ummul-Mumineen Hazrat Ayesha
(Razi-Allah-ho-Anha)Narrates, the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) said
“I am the
Last of Prophets and My Mosque is the Last of the mosques of the Holy
Prophets.”
Hazrat Uqba bin Aamir
(Razi-Allah-ho-Anha) narrates, the Holy Prophet P.B.U.H said
“Had there been any Prophet after me, Omer
(Razi-Allah-ho-Anha)
S/o Khattab would have been that”.
Hazrat Abu Hurerah
(Razi-Allah-ho-Anhu) narrates, the holly prophet (P.B.U.H) said
“My example and example of other prophet s is like
the one who constructed the great, grant and beautiful place but left place
of a brick in one of the corners. People cam to see and went around it.
They praised its beauty and grand ness very much. Besides they said this is
one brick has not been fixed.” The holly prophet P.B.U.H said, “I am that
brick and I am the last of the prophets. (I am the seal of the Prophet
Hood)”.
Hazrat
Sobaan(Razi-Allah-ho-Anhu) narrated, the Holy
Prophet (P.B.U.H) said
“There will be
thirty faiths less liars of the highest order. Every one of them wills claims
to be a Prophet. Where as in fact,I am last of the Prophets. No Prophet is
to come (Here) after me”.
Hazrat Abuzar
(Razi-Allah-ho-Anhu) narrates, the Holy Prophet (P.B.U.H) said to me.
“O;
Abuzar! The primarily of the Prophets is Hazrat Adam (Alaihe-Salaam) and
the last of all the Prophets is Hazrat Muhammad P.B.U.H.”
Almighty Allah Says in
Qur’an about his last prophet
“Nor does he Say (ought) of
(his own) desire. It is no less then inspiration sent down to him”.
After such clear and explicit
declaration by almighty Allah Himself and his last his most distinguished
prophet about the end termination of the practice of appointing Prophets,
if some one does not believe in that, he is definitely an atheist and must
be treated accordingly.
The whole Muslim Ummah coherence
on the belief of Khatm-e-Nubuwwat. All the expounders and exegetics have
concord on the meanings of Khatm-e-Nubuwwat. I.e. there is neither any type
of Prophet nor any sort of messenger after Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H). It is
also concordat that there is no other interpretation or appropriation in
the meanings of the word Khatm-e-Nubuwwat. The abnegator (denier) of
Khatm-e-Nubuwwat is abnegator of Allah his last messenger and coherence of
Muslim Ummah. Denier of Khatm-e-Nubuwwat element of Nubuwwat is infidel,
traitor, and biggest liar. His punishment is the Same as that Muselema
Kazzab. May Allah grace all the Muslims to bound and cling them selves to
the person of Hazrat Muhammad (P.B.U.H) and remain adherent to the teachings
of Islam in letter and sprit Aamin.
