Is it said that the messengers and prophets are not known except by their miracles?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner asks: What is the validity of this statement that the messengers and prophets (peace be upon them) are not known except by their miracles?

Answer:
The term "miracles" is a technical term, but what is mentioned in the Qur'an and the Sunnah is "clear proofs." The clear proofs are the scriptures. The clear proofs are the miracles, and the scriptures are the divine books. Allah sent the messengers with clear proofs, which are the indications of their prophethood, and He sent them with books from Allah (Glorified and Exalted is He). They are called signs, they are called clear proofs, and they are called proofs. As for "miracles," this is a term that was agreed upon recently. Yes.
