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

Answer:
Yes. As for the illiterate. An illiterate person is one who cannot read or write; this is well known. He did not read or write, and this is one of his miracles. He carried this Shari'ah and this great Qur'an while he could not read. I mean, by Allah.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you.
