@Zalim

Let me take advantage of this thread to pass on something which may interest someone.

At the demise of Hazrat Ibrahim, Prophet Mohammad [sa] made an important statement which remains on record to this day:

IT IS NARRATED BY HAZRAT IBNE ABBAAS (R.A.) THAT WHEN IBRAHIM, SON OF THE MESSENGER OF ALLAH PASSED AWAY, THE PROPHET (PBUH) SAID HIS FUNERAL PRAYER AND SAID THAT THERE IS A NURSE FOR HIM IN PARADISE AND IF HE HAD LIVED HE WOULD HAVE BEEN A TRUE PROPHET (Ibne Maja vol. 1, Kitaabal Janaiz, p. 237)

It is interesting to note that Ibrahim passed away a number of years after the verse about “Khatam-an-Nabiyyeen” was revealed. He died in the year 9 A.H. and the verse was revealed in 5 AH. About four years after he knew through revelation that he was “Khataman Nabiyyeen”, his saying about his son: had he lived, he would certainly have been a prophet, clearly implies that he himself did not interpret the meaning of “Khatam-an-Nabiyyeen” literally, as “Last of the Prophets”.

Just a thought and a tangent reply. Hope it may help you ponder.

Zalim! Deviating from the topic of the thread, I’m posting link to your above query. Will provide further material if so required by you.
