universally supported the fundamental
doctrine of Finality of Prophet hood in Prophet Muhammad ﷺ So much so, that the entire community has recognized anyone who
claims to be a prophet [in any capacity], supports someone else's claim to
prophet hood, or views such claimant as a religious leader, to be an unbeliever
apostate, kaafir and a renegade.
According to this fundamental belief,
anyone who now claims to be a Prophet of God should be viewed as a deceiver
imposter, whose claim is contrary to the teachings of Islaam.
All Muslim scholars consider such
self-proclaimed prophets misguided opportunists, who have doomed their souls
for worldly gains.
