Question: How can it be shown that the Prophet Muhammad was the best human being who ever lived?

Since getting officially banned from Sunni Answers, we decided to go undercover to continue our mission of posing important questions for the brilliant Shaykh Abū Ādam al-Narūjiī.

In a recent public service announcement about the Prophet Muhammad, the good Shaykh made the following claim:

“The best human beings are the Prophets (may Allah increase their honor), and the best Prophet is our beloved prophet Muhammad.

We recently sent special agent “Hossam Bokhari” (a.k.a. me) to pose the following question for our beloved Shaykh:

dear brother

how to answer the kuffaar who say that we moslem cannot show that prophet muhammad salalahu alihiwasalam was the BEST PROPHET and the BEST HUMAN BEING ever. how to show this to them?

hossam bokhari

To this question, we were given the following response

“I would not attempt this with non-Muslims, because if they are not convinced that Aļļaah is one and does not resemble His creation, then how would convince them of something that is not as obvious. In general you should avoid discussing anything but tawĥiid with non-Muslims, and even that should be avoided unless you are qualified to debate such an issue. Tawĥiid is the most obvious issue in the religion, and the most important. If they do not accept it, they won’t accept anything else, and they will still be non-Muslims even if you could convince them of other issues than tawĥiid.”

Of course! It is patently obvious that the Prophet Muhammad was the best human being who ever lived. Anyone who doesn’t already see that isn’t even worth talking to. The reasoning couldn’t be more pristine.

Thanks again, dear Shaykh, for that thoroughly enlightening response!
