Dear Islamic brothers! Let us hear about some further excellences of the beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم from the previous heavenly books:

King of both worlds

It is stated in the Injīl, the heavenly book which was revealed to Prophet ꜤĪsā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم: “I will make the Final Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم the king of all the nations, the one who will always remain dominant and continue to uphold my commandments till the end.”^[1]

Shining minaret

Prophet Zakariyyā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم states:

The angel which speaks on my tongue (meaning, who brings revelation to me) said to me, “What do you see?” When I looked, I saw a golden minaret in front of me. At its tip was the palm of a hand which had seven lamps upon it, and each lamp had seven openings. To the right and left of this palm were olive trees. I asked the angel, “What is this?” The angel replied, “Do you not know him? This is Muhammad صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, and Allah Almighty states regarding him that ‘He will supplicate with My name, and I will answer his supplication.’”

The scholars mention that the two olive trees in this narration signify religion and authority, which Allah Almighty granted to His beloved صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.^[2]

His beautiful qualities

Sayyidunā Wahb b. Munabbih رَحْمَةُ الـلّٰـهِ عَـلَيْه mentioned that Allah Almighty sent revelation to Prophet ShaꜤyā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم stating:

Indeed, I will send a Prophet who will be untaught (meaning, he will have no teacher in this world), and through him I will open deaf ears, awaken heedless hearts and grant sight to blind eyes. His place of birth
