- Belief - Knowledge of a Prophet

1) Allah (The Exalted) gave the Prophets the knowledge of the unseen (Ghaib). Every particle of the sky and earth are in front of the sight of all the Prophets. This knowledge of the unseen (Ilm-e-Ghaib) is given to them by Allah (The Exalted). Therefore this knowledge is 'given knowledge' (Ataayi) and because Allah (The Exalted's) knowledge is 'not given' to Him by anyone it is 'self knowledge' (Zaati).

2) Now that you know the difference between Allah (The Exalted's) knowledge and the Prophet's knowledge, therefore it is clear that to believe the knowledge of the unseen for the Prophets as given to them by Allah (The Exalted) cannot be referred to as Shirk (Polytheism - associate with Allah (The Exalted)) but in fact true Imaan (belief) and is proved by verses (of the Qur'an) and Hadiths (sayings of the Prophet).

3) Any follower cannot, due to their willpower, piety, worship, willingness to follow Allah (The Exalted), be better than any Prophet.

4) Prophets when sleeping or awake are always involved in the remembrance of the Lord.

5) To accurately count the Prophets in quantity, is forbidden. The true figure of all the Prophets is only known to Allah (The Exalted).
