Commentary of the Verses in the Holy Qur'aan
There are more than a hundred verses in the holy Qur'aan in support of the belief of "Khatm-e-Nubuwwat" (finality of prophethood). Since this article is being written in a short and comprehensive manner, I will quote just three verses.
1.
This day I have perfected your religion for you, computed my favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islaam as your religion.Soorah 5, Verse 4
It is evident from this verse that Allah Taaala has completed the religion of Islaam for this Ummah, therefore, there is no need for a new prophet after the Holy Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
2. Say! O people! I am sent unto you all as the apostle of Allah. . .
Soorah 7, Verse 158
The word
"all" in this verse clarifies that the Holy Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam has been sent for the entire humanity till the Day of Judgement. Thus, this is a clear announcement of the "finality of prophethood."3. We have not sent thee but as a universal (Messenger) to mankind giving them glad-tidings and warning them (against sin ), but most people understand not.
Soorah 34, Verse 28
In this verse the Holy Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam has been mentioned as a "Universal" messenger. Therefore,
there is no need for another prophet after the Holy Prophet Muhammad
sallallahu alayhi wasallam.
