Who was the last Prophet sent for mankind?

Question

And when there comes to them any tidings whether of peace or of fear they spread it about, whereas if they had referred it to the Messenger and to those in authority among them, surely those of them, who can elicit the truth from it, would have understood it. And had it not been for the grace of God upon you and His mercy, you would have followed Satan, save a few.

Answer 1

Muhammad was a liar. The real prophets sacrificied themselves to serve people. Muhammad sacrificed others to serve himself!

Answer 2

The term Last Prophet is used in religious contexts to refer to the last person through whom God speaks, after which there is to be no other.

Islam

The phrase, Last Prophet, is used primarily in Islam, where it refers to Muhammad, whom Muslims hold to be the final prophet in the monotheistic Abrahamic tradition. Muhammad is similarly called the Seal of the Prophets.


Judaism

Classical Judaism teaches that there will be no prophet greater than Moses, and all the other prophets mentioned in the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible) were inferior to Moses and his prophecies. This was enunciated by Maimonides in the Jewish principles of faith about the status of Moses:

Moses was superior to all prophets, whether they preceded him or arose afterwards. Moses attained the highest possible human level. He perceived God to a degree surpassing every human that ever existed... God spoke to all other prophets through an intermediary. Moses alone did not need this; this is what the Torah means when God says "Mouth to mouth, I will speak to him. (The Siddur.)

The last of the twelve minor prophets (canonically) (and the final book of the Christian Old Testament) is commonly attributed to a prophet by the name of Malachi.


Other religions

Other religious traditions have used this or similar terms. Mani, founder of the Persian faith Manichaeism, also claimed to be the Seal of the Prophets and the last prophet.

In Mandaeanism, John the Baptist is considered the last prophet.

Mahavira, the founder of Jainism, also claimed to be the last prophet in a series

Answer 3

No doubt, JESUS, the Messiah, was “The Prophet,” the long-awaited one foretold by Moses. (Joh 1:19-21, 25-27; 6:14; 7:40; De 18:18, 19; Ac 3:19-26) His ability to perform powerful works and to discern matters in a way beyond the ordinary caused others to recognize him as a prophet. (Lu 7:14-16; Joh 4:16-19; compare 2Ki 6:12.) More than all others he was one in God’s “intimate group.” (Jer 23:18; Joh 1:18; 5:36; 8:42) He regularly quoted earlier prophets as testifying to his divine commission and office. (Mt 12:39, 40; 21:42; Lu 4:18-21; 7:27; 24:25-27, 44; Joh 15:25)
He foretold the manner of his own betrayal and death, that as a prophet he would die at Jerusalem, “the killer of the prophets,” that his disciples would abandon him, that Peter would deny him three times, that he would be resurrected on the third day—many of these prophecies being based on earlier prophecies in the Hebrew Scriptures. (Lu 13:33, 34; Mt 20:17-19; 26:20-25, 31-34)
Beyond this, he foretold the destruction of Jerusalem and its temple. (Lu 19:41-44; 21:5-24) The precise fulfillment of all of these things within the life of those hearing him gave solid basis for faith and conviction as to the fulfillment of his prophecies relating to his presence.—Compare Mt 24; Mr 13; Lu 21.

Answer 4

The last Prophet is supposed to come in the present modern world condition of this generation. If you are thinking and insisting that it was Muhammad who is the last messenger, read the Book of Revelation as it talks about the now and not some 500 years after Christ. Muhammad's coming was very early to be considered even if most of his claims could be true. The last messengers words will not be disputed in any way even by its adversaries. Muhammad's words are still subject to arguments and interpretations by many believers even within Islam itself......visit this website...www.thename.ph

Answer 5

At the risk of sounding like a Heratic...
we are all Prophets...all of us have the ability to spread the word of the Creator
And to act as a beacon of faith

Answer 6

I am but a simple troll, but I thought it was the prophet Malichi. Around about that time, if I'm not mistaken, God ceased performing major feats in the Bible.

Answer 7

I would say it was John the Baptist. He came to tell the world to be ready for Jesus Christ. Since Christ came, there has been no reason for any other prophets. Since God sent His own Son to us, sending another prophet after that would be backpedaling. Once you've had the best, forget the rest.

Answer 8

Prophets weren´t sent, they get things shown to them, so they become prophets.

I don´t think the LAST prophet has been yet.

A lot of people have visions of things which then happen, in fact Ive seen things happen before they did in dreams a couple of times. The Kobi earthquake was one of them and ive got witnessess.

Why or how these things are revealed I don´t know, but nevertheless this posses anothe question "what is a prophet?"

I certainly hope im not, nasty things happened to prophets.

Answer 9

Malachi
