The message brought by muhammed is th final message2 \3
5. The Holy Quran is the Prophet Muhammad's (pbuh) great, everlasting, perpetual
miracle:
The Messenger of Allah (pbuh) said,
"Of the prophets, there has not been one who was not given signs that would make human beings believe him, and verily, what I was given was revelation revealed to me by Allah, so I hope to be the one most followed on the Day of Resurrection."
[Sahih al-Bukhari]
We have previously explained the irrefutable evidence that the Holy Quran which was sent
down upon the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is the only scripture that will remain preserved in its
divinely-sanctioned form for the legitimate guidance of all people. The corruption, substitution,
alteration, and omission that plagued the previous books at the hands of human beings will not
happen to it.
We likewise explained previously that, in addition to the Holy Quran containing the
miraculous quality of rhetorical and illustrative power that challenged the Arabs, when they were
a people of eloquence, purity of language, and skillful rhetorical style, it also contained another
element of inimitability: miraculously accurate scientific language in many different fields, which
have been the cause for many Western scientists, Filipino physicians, and others to embrace
Islam.
What we would like to shed light upon now is the following point:
The Holy Quran is the great, lasting miracle in our hands today and it will be preserved until
the life of this world comes to an end and the Last Hour is at hand.
As such, the Holy Quran is a testament to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) that he is the Seal
of the Prophets and Messengers.
The Holy Quran is the great, lasting miracle which contains vindication of God the Creator
(Noble & Sublime), proving His innocence and perfection and glorifying Him in a way unequaled
by any other attempt to praise and glorify the Divine Being, and the Attributes, Names, and
Actions particular to Him (Noble & Sublime).
The Holy Quran is the great, lasting miracle which contains descriptions of Allah's prophets
and messengers (despite their dissimilarities) in the best terms in which a noble human being can
be described, with good qualities and commendable behavior.
The Holy Quran is the great, lasting miracle which contains guiding rites of worship, noble
standards of interaction, and upstanding laws that stand on a basis of goodness, truth, and virtue.
As such, the pure, authentic Sunnah of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) has also been preserved,
as it is critical to understanding the Quran which was revealed to him (pbuh). The proof for this
is:
The development of the science of hadith, in which the integrity of each narrator of a hadith
from Allah's Messenger (pbuh) is investigated as to his honesty, his trustworthiness, his
observance of Islamic ritual, his restraint from committing prohibited acts, etc., to ensure that he
is not neglectful of his religion. There is also an investigation into the quality of his memory and
his aptitude for accuracy. It is also stipulated that whoever related a hadith from a certain
individual must be proven to have been his contemporary, and in fact, some investigators, such
as Imam al-Bukhari, required proof that the two actually met. This is what led them to develop
an entire discipline known as `ilm ul-rijaal, "the science of the men," which records the life story
of every narrator who related the hadith over the course of centuries: his birth, his death, the
teachers from whom he acquired knowledge, his behavior, his piety, and so on.
Such a discipline is not known except in the nation of the Seal of the Prophets and
Messengers, who was sent to all people, Muhammad (pbuh).
As such, there is no need for any other divine scriptures to be sent down upon any other prophet
sent after the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), for the influence and persuasive power of the other,
previous miracles of the previous prophets and messengers before the coming of the Prophet
Muhammad (pbuh) ended with the death or ascension of the messenger, as opposed to the case
with the everlasting miracle (the Holy Quran), which has been preserved with all its influence and
persuasive power even after the death of the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
For, if the Jews and Christians were asked now about seeing the miracles of their prophets,
they would say, "We did not see them," and if they were asked how they know about them, they
would say, "Our fathers and grandfathers and others informed us of them."
But if the Muslims were asked about seeing the miracles of their Prophet, Muhammad (pbuh),
which testifies to the truth of his message and call, they would say, "The great miracle of the
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), which testifies to the truth of his message and call, is in our hands.
We see it and study it, in addition to the other miracles and wonders a multitude of our
trustworthy people have related to us."
Indeed, the fact that this great miracle has been preserved by Allah (Blessed & Exalted) is
irrefutable visual and logical proof, that there will be no other, new divine scripture sent down
after the Holy Quran which was revealed to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), and that there will
be no other, new prophet or messenger after the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
Among the visual and logical proof that the Holy Quran, the great miracle, will remain
preserved by Allah (Blessed & Exalted), and therefore, there will be no need for a new divine
scripture, is what we witness now of advances in means of writing and printing: modern devices,
the founding of institutions and administrative bodies, and special commissions for printing the
Holy Quran—the Great Miracle—and supervising it and protecting it from the meddling of vile
human hands.
As such, all prophecies and messages were sealed by the prophethood and message of the
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) to all people.
6. The purification of the Ancient House—the Sacred Ka`aba—from the filth of
association in worship and idolatry:
Allah Most High has said,
{Verily, the first House (of worship) appointed for mankind was that at Bakka (Mecca), full of blessing, and a guidance for the worlds.}
[Aal-`Imran 3: 96]
{And (remember) when We showed Abraham the site of the (Sacred) House (the Ka`aba), (saying), "Associate not anything (in worship) with Me, and sanctify My House for those who circumambulate it, and for those who stand up for prayer, and those who bow, and make prostration.}
[Al-Hajj 22: 26]
Indeed, the first house of worship placed by Allah (Mighty & Majestic) on the earth was that
which is in Mecca, so that people might worship Him (Noble & Sublime), purely, without
associating anything else with Him, and the Arabs used to make pilgrimage to that house of
worship every year.
The Ancient House—the Sacred Ka`aba—is of great importance to Allah (Mighty &
Majestic). Its sacredness is paramount, for it is the first house set for people on the earth for the
worship of Allah (Glorious & Exalted).
However, over time, Satan made it seem good for the Arabs to worship others beside Allah
Most High—idols and stones—and the situation remained that way for many centuries.
Yet part of the requirements of the Wisdom of Allah (Glorious & Exalted), was that there
come a time when His Sacred House—the Holy Ka`aba—would be cleansed of all these statues
and stones that the Arabs used to worship, for it was the first house built for the worship of
Allah (Noble & Sublime) on the face of the earth.
Message followed message, and the association and idol worship of the Arabs remained as it
was. Judaism came, followed by Christianity, and neither of them could cleanse Allah's Sacred
House from association, idols and the worship of others beside Allah Most High; they were not
able to bring the people from the worship of false gods and stones to the worship of Allah
(Glorious & Exalted).
Until the Seal of the Prophets and Messengers, Muhammad (pbuh) came with the final
message, to implement what Allah (Mighty & Majestic) willed—that which His Wisdom (Noble
& Sublime) required—the cleansing of His Sacred House from the association of false gods and
idols, and rectifying this corrupt creed.
That is why it was from the Wisdom of Allah (Mighty & Majestic) to send Muhammad (pbuh)
as a final messenger by whom to seal the divine messages, to be sent to all people, reciting to
them the Verses of their Lord, to purify and cleanse them from idolatry and evil acts, to teach
them the Book of their Lord, to command them to do good and forbid them from doing evil,
and to declare lawful that which is pure and good and to prohibit all that is evil and harmful.
And then it really happened: Allah (Mighty & Majestic) blessed His Messenger, Muhammad
(pbuh) with the liberation of Mecca in the eighth year after the Hijrah (the migration to Medina).
He entered the Sacred Mosque, headed toward the Black Stone and kissed it. Then he circled
round the Ancient House with a bow in his hand. At that time, there were 360 idols surrounding
the Ka`aba, so Allah's Messenger (pbuh) began to stab at them with the bow, reciting the Words
of Allah (Mighty & Majestic),
{And say, "Truth has come and falsehood has vanished. Surely! Falsehood is ever bound to vanish."}
[Al-Israa' 17: 81]
and
{Say, "The truth has come, and falsehood can neither create nor resurrect.}
[Saba' 34: 49]
Behold Allah's Holy House—the first house established for the worship of Allah Most High
on the face of the earth—before our eyes, cleansed of statues and idols, pure for the exclusive
worship of Allah Almighty, people worshipping their God and Creator purely, without
associating anything with Him, worship with correct belief, worship that does not require the
reform or renewal of a new prophet or messenger.
Indeed, the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is the Seal of the Prophets and Messengers, sent by
our Lord (Blessed & Exalted), to cleanse His Ancient House from the filth of the worship of
false gods and idols, to all people.
And it has been discovered recently: that the Holy City of Mecca lies at the center of all dry
land on the face of the earth. In other words, were we to draw a circle, its center point would be
Mecca and this circle would encompass all dry land.
Also, the longitude of the Holy City of Mecca lies exactly at the center of time. Thus,
surrounding Mecca is the whole world, in time and space
We have previously discussed some recent scientific discoveries: the congruence of the Muslim
rite of circumambulation around the Ka`aba with the order of the universe and its harmony with
it, which proves that God the Creator of this universe is the One (Glorious & Exalted) Who sent
down His final message upon the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh), Seal of the Prophets and
Messengers.
As a necessary result of the Wisdom of Allah (Glorious & Exalted), the Holy City of Mecca
was made the cradle of this final, global message
