Al [Imran 3: 82–4


So saying, Allah asked: “Do you agree and accept to take up the burden of the covenant?” They answered: “We agree.” He said: “Then bear witness; and I will be with you among the witnesses. (82) Then who- soever shall turn away from this covenant, they are the transgressors.”

(83) Do they now seek a religion other than that pre- scribed by Allah and this despite all that is in the heavens and the earth is in submission to Him – willingly or unwillingly – and to Him all shall return? (84) Say: “We believe in Allah and what was revealed to us and what was revealed to Abraham and Ishmael and to Isaac and Jacob and his descendants, and the teachings which Allah gave to Moses and Jesus and to other Prophets. We make no dis- tinction between any of them; and to Him do we submit.” ▶

the Prophet (peace be on him) neither informed his followers of the advent of any future Prophet nor did he direct them to believe in the prophethood of any such Prophet. On the contrary, he has been pronounced khatam al-nabiyin (the seal of the Prophets), meaning the last of them by the Qur’an. Several traditions from the Prophet (peace be on him) confirm that he categorically declared that no Prophet would come after him.
