The End of Prophet hood and Its Meaning and Reality

The End of Prophet hood and Its Meaning and Reality

The meaning of the end of prophet hood is that prophet hood and prophet hood ended with the blessed personality of the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and he is the seal (by breaking) of the prophets, that is, the one who ends the chain of prophets, and he is the seal (by opening) of the chain of prophets, that is, the seal.

 Now there will be no prophet of any kind after him, a seal is put to close the mouth of something, in the same way, the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is the seal on the chain of prophets, now no one will be able to enter this chain after him, and no one will hold this position until the Day of Judgment.

The seal is always to end and close

The seal is always to end and close. As Allah said, “They will be given a sealed fragrance, its seal is musk, that is, there will be sealed bottles and the wine will be sealed inside them.    The end of Allah is upon their hearts, that is, Allah has sealed their hearts, and that is, He has sealed disbelief inside.  (Ihtisab Qadianiyyat, Vol. 2, p. 514).

The issue of the end of prophecy

That is, the end of all types of prophecy and revelation upon the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) and his being the last prophet and messenger is one of the obvious issues and beliefs of Islam, which not only all Muslims, both general and specific, learned and ignorant, urban and rural, but also many non-Muslims know.

 For almost fourteen hundred years, millions of Muslims have held this belief. Millions of scholars of the Ummah have clarified this issue by interpreting and explaining the Quran and Hadith.

 There has never been a debate about whether there are certain types of prophecy, and any specific type of them remained after the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him), or whether there are legislative, non-legislative, shadowy, apparent, or figurative types of prophecy. There is no hint of this in the Quran and Hadith. The entire Ummah and the scholars of the Ummah have neither seen nor heard of this type of prophecy.  Rather, from the Companions and the followers to this day, the entire Ummah of Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, has remained steadfast in the belief that all types of prophet hood and message have ended with the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), and that no prophet or messenger will be born after him (the coming of Jesus (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), who was born before him and assumed the position of prophet hood, does not contradict this at all).

With this issue being so obvious and unanimous, gathering arguments and presenting proof for it actually seems to an intuitive person to be synonymous with complicating a theoretical and obvious reality; rather, presenting proof for this issue is like someone presenting proof of La ilaha illallah to Muslims. In these circumstances, there was no need to write a permanent pamphlet or book on this subject; but the general ignorance of the teachings of Islam, the absurdities, and the new temptations that arise every day have covered up many facts, have revealed falsehood as truth and truth as falsehood, and this issue has also become a test case.

The Babiya sect, as a sectarian group

The Babiya sect, as a sectarian group, was the first to disagree on this issue, but they could not advance this debate in an academic context. After that, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani opened the door to disagreement and conflict in this matter, and in many of his small and large books, this debate is so scattered and contradictory that even his followers could not agree on what he said and what his claim was.  In some places, according to the unanimous belief of the general Muslims, there is an admission that the Holy Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) is the last of the prophets and that the revelation of the Prophet hood has completely ceased, and that no prophet or messenger has ever been born after him. In some places, he has called himself a figurative and literal prophet. In some places, he has claimed to be a prophet of the past, by calling him a new type of prophet hood, the shadowy and the emergent. In some places, he has divided prophet hood into legal and non-legal, and described the end of legal and non-legal prophet hood and the continuation of non-legal prophet hood. He has called himself a non-legal prophet and claimed non-legal revelation. In some places, he has openly claimed to be a prophet with the Sharia and legal revelation.

The reason why his followers were divided into three sects

This is the reason why his followers were divided into three sects: one sect considers him the owner of Sharia and a legal prophet and messenger, this is the sect of Zaheeruddin Arupi, the second sect calls him a non-legal prophet, this is the Qadiani party, which is the follower of Mirza Mahmood Sahib, the third sect does not call him a prophet or a messenger; rather, he declares him the Promised Messiah and the Promised Mahdi, these are the followers of Mr. Muhammad Ali Lahori.

            In short, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad Qadiani and his followers opened the door to conflict and discord in this definite and unanimous issue, took undue advantage of the ignorance of the people and the ignorance of those who are influenced by Western education and are alien to religious education, and created various illusions and doubts in their hearts on this issue, and in their eyes made the obvious issue theoretical;  Therefore, scholars and religious scholars had to focus on dispelling their doubts and bringing the correct light of the Quran and Hadith before them.
