Hujjat ul Islam, Imam Ghazali explains the said verse in these words: "No doubt the<br />
Ummah has unanimously understood from this word (Khatam-un-Nabieen) and its<br />
circumstantial reference to mean non-existence of a `nabi' or `rasool' ever after<br />

it; hence its dissident is certainly the one who rejects (ummah's) unanimity." (Al Iqtisad<br />

pleased with them ) and the Ulemas and intellectual scholers that MUHAMMED (S A<br />
W) is the last phrophet and messenger of ALLAH, this Shariat is the last Shariat,this<br />
ummah is the last ummah.<br />
The above mentioned statements and their beliefs and admission by heart <strong>are</strong> the<br />
eessential elements of faith in ISLAAM.In ISLAAM this faith is called the faith of<br />
