The Meaning of the Prophet Being Illiterate While Being the Teacher of the Ummah

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner:
The questioner asks: How can the Messenger be illiterate while he is the teacher of the Ummah?

The Shaykh:
Yes. As for the term "illiterate," an illiterate person is one who cannot read or write; this is well known. He does not read or write, and this is one of his miracles.

The presenter:
He carries this Shari'ah and this great Qur'an, and he does not accept it. I mean, by Allah. May Allah reward you.
