Question:
Who interprets the saying of Allah the Exalted[Al-Ahzab 33:40]. Or him. Who interprets the saying of [Al-Ahzab 33:40] the Exalted [Al-Ahzab 33:40] by their virtue, and it is not the last of them, and says that after him (peace and blessings be upon him) there will be prophets, is he a disbeliever?
Answer:
Yes, this is an atheist and a disbeliever. The one who denies the finality of prophethood and says that a prophet will come after the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) is a disbeliever, because he is lying to Allah. Allah, Mighty and Majestic, says:[Al-Ahzab 33:40], and the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: I am Jami` at-Tirmidhi 2219Sahih (Darussalam). So he is lying to Allah, to His Messenger, and to the consensus of the Muslims. Therefore, he is a disbeliever who has apostatized from the religion of Islam. Yes.
