Khatm-e-Nubuwwat means that Hazrat Muhammad (ﷺ) 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 (ﷺ). His Prophet hood will continue until the dooms day and even afterwards.

MEANING OF KHATM-E-NUBUWWAT
What is the meaning and importance of Khatm-e-Nubuwwat? State clearly the characteristics of this status in relation to the personality of the Holy Prophet (ﷺ)

Ans: Allah started the chain of Prophethood from Hazrat Adam Alaih-i-Salam and it ended with the Holy Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ).. Muhammad (ﷺ) is the last Prophet. There will be no Prophet after him. In the terminology of Shariah (Islamic law) having this faith is called the “Faith in Khatm-e-Nubuwwat”.

THE IMPORTANCE OF FAITH IN KHATM-E-NUBUWWAT
Belief in Khatm-e-Nubuwwat is one of the basic and important article of faith. From the Holy Prophet SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam’s time to this day every Muslim has the belief that Muhammad SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam is the last Prophet of God without any doubt.

Hundred Ayahs of the Holy Quran and
The Arabic Hadith (two hundred and ten Hadith) proves Khatm-e-Nubuwwat.
The first consensus of Muslim opinion (Ijmah) took place on this issue.
So, Hazrat Maulana Syed Muhammad Anwar Shah Kashmiri (Rahmatullah Alaih) writes in his last book “Khatm-e-Nubuwwat”that:

Translation “And the first ever consensus of Muslim opinion was the consensus on the murder of Muslima Kazab. Its only reason was just his claim of Prophethood. The reverend Sahaba (Razi Allah-o-Anhum Wa Razu An) (The companions of Holy Prophet SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam came to know about his other evil doings later, as Ibne Khuldoon writes. And ages after ages there was always consensus on the infidelity, apostasy and killing of the claimer of Prophethood, and there was never debate on Nubuwwat Tashria or non-Tashria.”

HONOUR OF THE STATUS OF KHATM-E-NUBUWWAT
In the Holy Quran ‘Rab-ul-A’lamin’ (the Lord of the universe) has been used for God, ‘Rahmatal-el-A’lamin’ (merciful to the universe) has been used for Hazrat Muhammad SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam. In the same way ‘Zikral-el-A’lamin’ (invocation of God’s name) has been used for the Holy Quran and ‘Hudal-el-Aalameen (guidance for the whole universe) has been asked for Baitullah. It proves not only universality of Hazrat Muhammad SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam, but also proves the speciality of Holy Prophet’s SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam being the last Prophet. Because all the other Prophets before Hazrat Muhammad SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam were sent by God in their particular regions and for specific nation and time period. With the coming of Hazrat Muhammad SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam God made the whole universe one unit for his Prophethood.

“I have been sent as prophet for all the creatures and this chain of Prophethood comes to an end with me” (Mishqat p.512 Chapter Fazail Syed-ul-Mursaleen. Muslim v.1 p.199 Kitabul Masajid).

Hazrat Muhammad SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam is the last Prophet. His Ummah is the last Ummah. His SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam Qiblah is the last Qiblah (Bait-Ullah Sharif). The Book that was revealed to Him SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam is the last Divine Book. All these specialities are related with the status of Khatm-e-Nubuwwat and the personality of the Holy Prophet SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam as well. So, because of Holy Prophet’s SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam seal of Prophethood Quran and Bait Ullah got the honour of being called ‘Zikral-e-Alamin’ and ‘Hudalel A’lamin’ respectively. And Holy Prophet’s SallAllah-o-Alaihi Wa Aalihi Wasallam Ummah was declared the last Ummah, as the Holy Prophet says:


“I am the last Prophet and you are the last Ummah” (Ibne Maja p.297).
