00:00Welcome, students, to an important discussion about the messengers of God, also known as prophets, peace be upon them.
00:12Question. Who are messengers?
00:15Answer. Messengers are human beings and servants of God Almighty.
00:19God appoints them to convey his commands to his servants.
00:23They are truthful, never tell lies, do not commit sins, and show miracles by God's command.
00:28They deliver the message of God completely, without adding anything, reducing anything, or hiding any part of it.
00:36Question. What is the meaning of the word Nabi?
00:39Answer. Nabi also means a human being and servant of God Almighty who conveys God's commands to his servants.
00:46They are truthful, do not lie, do not commit sins, do not alter God's commandments, and do not hide any divine instruction.
00:53Question. Is there any difference between a Nabi and a Rasul, or do they mean the same?
00:58Answer. A Rasul is a prophet who is given a new divine law and a new book, whereas a Nabi refers to any prophet, whether or not he is given a new sharia or book.
01:09Question. Can a person become a prophet through his own effort or worship?
01:14No. Only the one whom God Almighty appoints as a prophet becomes a prophet.
01:19This means that human effort or intention has no role in becoming a Nabi or Rasul.
01:24This rank is granted solely by God.
01:27Question. How many messengers and prophets are there?
01:31Many messengers and prophets came into the world, but their exact number is known only to God Almighty.

01:46The first prophet was Adam. Peace be upon him.
01:49Question. Who is the last prophet?
01:52The last prophet is Muhammad Mustafa. Peace and blessings be upon him.
01:56Question. Will any prophet come after Prophet Muhammad? Peace be upon him.
02:01No. Prophethood and messengership ended with Prophet Muhammad Mustafa. Peace be upon him.
02:07No new prophet will come after him until the Day of Judgment.
02:10Anyone who claims prophethood after him is a liar.
02:13Question. Who is the greatest of all messengers?
02:16Our prophet Muhammad Mustafa, peace and blessings be upon him, is the greatest and most honored among all prophets and messengers.
02:24Although he is also God's servant and obedient follower, his rank is the highest after God Almighty.
