The Splendor of the prophet of Islam (Part 1)

Previous Prophets mentioned some of the characteristics of the Prophet of Islam in their heavenly books, giving their followers the glad tidings of his future appearance.

The Holy Prophet of Islam (PBUH) is superior to all the prophets

Imam Jafar Sadiq (A.S) narrates that whenever Jibrael visited the Prophet (PBUH), he used to sit politely like a slave. He never entered without obtaining the permission of the Prophet (PBUH)

Al-Hujurat

The Surah takes its name from verse 4 in which the word hujurat has occurred.

Al-Fath (Victory)

It is derived from the words Inna fatah-na laka fat-han mubina of the very first verse. This is not only a name of the Surah but also its title in view of the subject matter, for it deals with the great victory that Allah granted to the Holy Prophet and the Muslims in the form of the Truce of Hudaibiya.

The Surah of Muhammad

The Surah derives its name from the sentence wa amanu bi-ma nuzzila ala Muhammad-in of verse 2, thereby implying that it is the Surah in which the holy name of Muhammad (upon whom be Allah's peace and blessings) has occurred. Besides, it has another well known name "al-Qital" also, which is derived from the sentence wa dhukira fi-hal-qital of verse 20.

Ahqaaf (The Dunes)

It is derived from the verse 21.

Jathiya (Crouching)

It is derived from the word jathiya in verse 28.

Dukhan (Smoke)

The Surah takes its name from the word Dukhan which occurs in verse 10.

Zukhruf (Luxury)

It is derived from the word zukhruf-an; which occurs in verse 33 of this Surah.

Is Moses (A.S) Superior to Muhammad (PBUH)?

It is narrated from Imam Sadiq (A.S) that a Jew asked the holy prophet (PBUH): “Whether you are superior or the prophet Moses to whom God used to speak and had revealed Torah to him and had made his walking stick a miracle and had split the sea for him and had always shadowed him under the clouds?”‌
