With-Love-to-Muhammad

196 With Love to Muhammad sa the Khātam-un-Nabiyyīn
reflection of the same Muhammad sa and bears his
name. But Jesus as cannot come without breaking the
Seal inasmuch as his is a separate and distinct
prophethood. 210
One can see the great care and veneration the Promised
Messiah as had for the Seal of prophethood borne by the Holy
Prophet Muhammad sa . By bringing back Hazrat ‘Īsā as , Farhan
Khan is committing a serious offense against this Seal and he is
disrespecting it even though he casually points the finger at
others.
Second, the Holy Prophet Muhammad sa did not say that
no one can be given prophethood after him. He simply said, “Lā
nabiyya ba‘adī” (There is no prophet after me), and to manipulate
this to mean that prophethood cannot be given to anyone after
the Holy Prophet sa is a far-fetched interpretation. The word
given has been inserted by Farhan Khan himself and he cannot
prove its existence in any hadīth.
Third, in support of his argument, Farhan Khan gives an
example by writing, “... a mother has three children: Ahmad,
Yahya, and Fatimah, aged ten, seven, and four, respectively. If
she was asked who her last child is, she would reply Fatimah,
because Fatimah was the last to be born in the family.” 211
This is an invalid comparison. Physical birth is
something that, by definition, can only occur once in a unique
sequential order which cannot change, but the issue we are
discussing is the appearance of a prophet for the guidance of
humankind. This, according to Farhan Khan’s sect of Muslims,
can occur more than once, particularly in the case of Jesus as .
