First of all, get a dictionary.
Here is the definition of prophet:
1. A person who speaks by divine inspiration or as the interpreter through whom the will of a god is expressed.
2. A person gifted with profound moral insight and exceptional powers of expression.
3. A predictor; a soothsayer.
4. The chief spokesperson of a movement or cause.
5.
1. Prophets (used with a sing. or pl. verb) The second of the three divisions of the Hebrew Scriptures, comprising the books of Joshua, Judges, Samuel, Kings, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, and the Twelve. Used with the. See table at Bible.
2. Prophet One of the prophets mentioned in the Bible, especially one believed to be the author of one of these books. Used with the.
6. Prophet Islam. Muhammad. Used with the.
NOW:
A prophet in Islam is basically a messenger. Someone who has a purpose to bring people to the right path. In Islam, Muhammad did not "prophesize" anything. He gave information and lead people to the path of god. An example of a prophet is Noah, Moses, and Adam.
This is all in opinion, just so you know.

Prophecy does not mean to predict the future. That is a mistake people often make. A prophet does not necessarily have to tell the future, although he or she often does. That which makes one a prophet is that he hears from God. He announces the words of God which are given to Him. THAT is what prophecy is.
Muhammad of course prophesied the messages that are now contained within the Qur'an. It does contain many future events, as it warns frequently about the end-times when the earth shall be divided between believers and unbelievers, and things like this. But his main message was to worship the One God.

============================
mentioning one here
The Qur’an gave the news that the dead body of Pharaoh would one day be discovered
In ancient Egypt, Pharaoh used to torture the Children of Israel. God sent Moses to him with the mission of inviting him to believe in One God and allow the Israelites to leave Egypt with Moses. Pharaoh refused and the struggle between them continued for a long time. However, one night Moses succeeded in marching towards the frontier with his people but Pharaoh, becoming aware of his attempt, set out to follow him. When Moses reached the Red Sea, he touched it with his staff, and a furrow opened across the sea. Pharaoh attempted to follow him, but was engulfed with his legions. While narrating this event, The Qur’an makes a very interesting prediction:
Today We shall preserve your body that you may be a sign to those after you: although most men give no heed to Our signs. (Yunus, 10.92)
The dead body of Pharaoh was later found floating on the Western shores of the Sinai peninsula. The native residents can still show you to this land, which is now known as Jabal Firawn (Hill of Pharaoh). A few miles from this hill is a hot spring called Hammam Firawn (the Bath of Pharaoh).

Muhammad fulfilled Jesus' prophecy that there will be false prophets arise in the last days. There will be more such as Bin Laden.

The Bible supplies the tests for prophets, but Muhammad can not pass them.

I would love to answer your question, only if you weren't stupid. Seeing as you can't even spell "prophet" correctly.
