    For Muslims: Is Muhammad the last Prophet from God?

    But then the verse continues saying وَأُخَرُ مُتَشَـٰبِهَـٰتࣱۚ فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ فِی "others are allegorical" None of the Transactions, interpreted it the way you are. https://www.islamawakened.com/quran/3/7/ How do you know your interpretation is correct, and everyone else, got it wrong?

    For Muslims: Is Muhammad the last Prophet from God?

    If Khaatam literally means "Final", why the Arab scholars argued that, its metaphorical meaning is Finality? I quote Wikipedia: الخاتم من مادة "ختم" يطلق على ما يختم به آخر الرسائل أو الوثائق والكتب المهمة. ومن هنا وضعت كلمة "الخاتم" على ما يلبس في الاصابع، لأنَّ فص الخواتم كان ينقش عليه اسم...

    The meaning of seal, is not end. I am an engineer, and I have a seal. When I finish a document, I stamp it, to mean, that, a Registered engineer approved it. Yet, that is not the last document. Another day, I will stamp another document. Next year another document. Also, sometimes, we need...

    God had placed His seal on Jesus. So, if seal denotes Finality, jesus was the Last one: "Do not labor for the food which perishes, but for the food which endures to everlasting life, which the Son of Man will give you, because God the Father has set His seal on Him." John 6:27 And the...

    Abdullah ibn Amr reported: We said, “O Messenger of Allah, who are the best people?” The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: ذُو الْقَلْبِ الْمَخْمُومِ وَاللِّسَانِ الصَّدُوقِ One with a heart swept clean and truthful in speech. We said, “O Messenger of Allah, we know...

    That is not what the Quran says though. You must have learned this idea from somewhere else. I think You should weigh your idea against the verses of the Quran. If Quran agrees with it, then fine. If not, consider, those who taught it to you, had misunderstood it themselves. "Do not follow...

    @Link Actually the term "Khaatam Unnabiyeen" is a very good example of Mutishabihat verse, because there is ambiguity in it. If there was not, we would all agree what it means. Khaatam can mean "Ring", "Signet Ring", or "Seal" (Stamp). So, this can be interpreted differently. For...

    Where does it say "from the book comes"? When looking at this Hadith, it is clear that, the Book is divided into two types of verses: - عيون أخبار الرضا (ع): أبي، عن علي، عن أبيه، عن حيون مولى الرضا، عن الرضا عليه السلام قال: من رد متشابه القرآن إلى محكمه هدي إلى صراط مستقيم، ثم قال عليه...

    So, what you are saying, all verses of Quran are Muhkam. But when someone misinterpret it, it becomes Mutishabih? But that's not what Quran says: هُوَ ٱلَّذِیۤ أَنزَلَ عَلَیۡكَ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبَ مِنۡهُ ءَایَـٰتࣱ مُّحۡكَمَـٰتٌ هُنَّ أُمُّ ٱلۡكِتَـٰبِ وَأُخَرُ مُتَشَـٰبِهَـٰتࣱۚ فَأَمَّا ٱلَّذِینَ...

    For Muslims: Is Muhammad the last Prophet from God?

    Ok, but, let's also consider what تاويل (interpretation of Mutishabihat ) is. First, is it fair to say, that, what is Mutishabih in Quran, have Taweel, and what is Muhkam, does not require Taweel? Can this be derived from verse 3:7 ? When it says, None knows its interpretation except God and...

    well this Hadith tells us otherwise: - عيون أخبار الرضا (ع): أبي، عن علي، عن أبيه، عن حيون مولى الرضا، عن الرضا عليه السلام قال: من رد متشابه القرآن إلى محكمه هدي إلى صراط مستقيم، ثم قال عليه السلام: إن في أخبارنا متشابها كمتشابه القرآن، ومحكما كمحكم القرآن، فردوا متشابهها إلى محكمها، ولا...

    Ok, but I was hoping there would be a Hadith that actually gives an example, saying this is "Apparent" Anyways, I get back to this "Apparent" later. I think here was another Hadith you quoted, but I just founded it too: وروى العياشي عن الصادق 7 أنه سئل عن المحكم والمتشابه فقال : المحكم مايعمل...

    Thanks. Those are long Hadithes with good guidance, but based on what they said, do you think you can give an example of Muhkamaat and and example of Mutishabihat? Are there examples from the Imams or the Quran itself that says, this is an example of what Allah means by Mutishabihat, and this...

    Let me ask you this. How do we know if an Ayih in Quran is Muhkam or Mutishabihat? How do we distinguish Mutishabihat verses? I don't want to argue about opinions, who is right here. But rather a clear guideline by Prophet or Imams, supported by verses of Quran that tells us, how we know an...

    "Fear God and He will teach you" is a verse of the Quran. I understand "God fearing" to mean, one who does not sin. He does not lie, does not backbite, does not commit fornication, does not treat any being unfairly. On the other hand, he is kind to all beings, he is truthful, generous to the...

    Messengers and Prophets (Rasool & Nabi)
