The Islaamic Interpretation of the Term "Khaatamun Nabiyyeen"
The Muslims present the meaning of the verse in exactly the same way as it was understood by those people (i.e. the Sahaabah radhiyallahu anhum, Taabi'een, Muhadditheen and the learned scholars of Islaam) who have transmitted this verse to us along with the entire Qur'aan. The term "Khaatamun Nabiyyeen" means "the final prophet", "the seal of the prophets", and "the last prophet". This verse declares that with Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wasallam,
prophethood has come to an end; and no true prophet of any category will be born ever again.
