macoooo AdvancedProphet Muhammad (p.b.u.h) was the last prophet sent by Allah.
To understand why he was the last messenger, we need to first understand what exactly was the purpose behind sending any prophets by Allah.
1) The prophets, Jesus, Moses, Noah, Muhammad and the other prophets of Allah (peace be upon them all) were all sent with a single mission. The Mission was to remind the people of the reality of afterlife, to tell them about Allah, enjoin them to do good and teach them the religion of Allah.
2) Allah says, that a prophet was sent to every tribe/people and 5 books were revealed upon the prophets. However the books as we know were either fabricated or lost later on after the prophets. (eg: the Bible has no single version)
Now the point to note is that uptill now Allah says that each prophet was send to his or her own people.
3) Allah says, that Prophet Muhammad was sent as a messenger to the whole of mankind and jinnkind. Allah communicated the Quran through him to us.
NOW COMES THE ANSWER...
Prophet Muhammad taught the people everything about Islam all its fundamentals, rights, rites, salaah, etiquettes and other frameworks. Allah through Prophet Muhammad, revealed the Quran as the guidance for all men and Jinn.
PLUS, Allah himself has vouched that the Quran will be preserved till the end of time (judgement day)
NOW THE EXPLANATION:
Earlier all the prophets except Prophet Muhammad were sent mainly to their own people (Moses to people of Israel, etc). PLUS the instructions/books given to them were after their death either fabricated or lost.
Prophet Muhammad on the other hand was NOT sent to a particular community or nation or a group of people but to humanity at large. Secondly, the message revealed to him in the form of the Quran will be preserved till the end of time as promised by Allah.
Thus, the final reminder and everlasting message has been sent by Allah and Thus, there arise no need for further Prophets or instruction (books) to appear, since we have the final frameworks and instruction with Prophet Muhammad and the Quran.
The message of Islam has spread far and wide across all globe, some people revert to it some avert from it, nonetheless they have heard about it and are aware of Allah as the supreme deity. Whether they choose to accept it or not is their choice and is between them and Allah.
Thus to CONCLUDE, since all the conditions for sending the prophets have been fulfilled and the Quran will last till the end of time (judgement day).
Speaking from common sense of the above explanation there arises no need for sending anymore Prophets, they will have no mission left even if they are sent to earth.
The only thing left now is for us to take heed of the message of the QURAN.
Prophet Muhammad (p) was the Last & Final Messenger of Allah who was Sent for the Whole of Humanity

macoooo AdvancedMuhammad ibn (son of) Abdullah ibn (son of) Abdul Mutalib, was born on 12 Rabi 'Awwal in the year 570 C.E. (Christian Era) in Makkah, (today: Saudi Arabia) and he died in 633 C.E. in Yathrib (today: Madinah, Saudi Arabia)
In Arabic the word prophet (nabi) is derived from the word naba which means news. Thus we deduce that a prophet spreads the news of God and His message, they are in a sense God’s ambassadors on earth. Their mission is to convey the message to worship One God. This includes, calling the people to God, explaining the message, bringing glad tidings or warnings and directing the affairs of the nation. All the prophets were anxious to convey God’s message sincerely and completely and this included the last prophet, Muhammad. During his final sermon Prophet Muhammad asked the congregation three times whether he had delivered the message, and called on God to witness their answer, which was a resounding “yes!”.
As well as the essence of their call to One God, another accepted sign of the truth of the prophets is how they live their lives. The accounts of Prophet Muhammad’s life that we have inherited from our righteous predecessors illustrate that Muhammad’s Prophethood was guided by God from the very beginning. Long before, Prophethood Muhammad was being prepared to guide humankind to the straight path and his life experiences stood him in good stead for such a weighty mission. Then at the age of 40 when Prophethood was bestowed upon him, God continued to support and affirm his mission. Any account of Muhammad’s life is filled with examples of his exemplary character; he was merciful, compassionate, truthful, brave, and generous, while striving solely for the rewards of the Hereafter. The way Prophet Muhammad dealt with his companions, acquaintances, enemies, animals and even inanimate objects left no doubt that he was ever mindful of God.
Muhammad’s birth was accompanied by many so called miraculous events and the talk of the extraordinary events no doubt functioned as signs of Prophethood,
Special but not unique circumstances surrounded childhood of Prophet Muhammad and these undoubtedly had a bearing on his character. By the time he was eight years old he had suffered through the death of both his parents and his beloved grandfather Abdul Muttalib. He was left in the care of his uncle and great supporter Abu Talib. Thus even as a young boy he had already suffered great emotional and physical upheaval. Both the many chroniclers of Muhammad’s life and the Quran acknowledge his disrupted life.
Did He not find you (O Muhammad) an orphan and gave you a refuge? (Quran 93:6)
Muhammad’s uncle Abu Talib was poor and struggled to keep his family fed, thus during his adolescence Muhammad worked as a shepherd. From this occupation he learned to embrace solitude and developed characteristics such as patience, cautiousness, care, leadership and an ability to sense danger. Shepherding was an occupation that all the prophets of God we know of had in common. ‘…The companions asked, “Were you a shepherd?” He replied, “There was no prophet who was not a shepherd.”’[1]
In his teens Muhammad sometimes travelled with Abu Talib, accompanying caravans to trade centres. On at least one occasion, he is said to have travelled as far north as Syria. Older merchants recognized his character and nicknamed him Al-Amin, the one you can trust. Even in his youth he was known as truthful and trustworthy. One story that is accepted by most Islamic scholars and historians is the account of one of Prophet Muhammad’s trips to Syria.
The story goes that the monk Bahira foretold the coming Prophethood and counselled Abu Talib to “guard his nephew carefully”. According to biographer Ibn Ishaq, as the caravan in which Prophet Muhammad was travelling approached the edge of town, Bahira could see a cloud that appeared to be shading and following a young man. When the caravan halted under the shadow of some trees, Bahira “looked at the cloud when it over-shadowed the tree, and its branches were bending and drooping over the apostle of God until he was in the shadow beneath it.” After Bahira witnessed this he observed Muhammad closely and asked him many questions concerning a number of Christian prophecies he had read and heard about.
The young Muhammad was distinguished among his people for his modesty, virtuous behaviour and graceful manners, thus it was no surprise for his companions to see him, even as a youth many years before Prophethood, shun superstitious practices and keep away from drinking alcohol, eating meat slaughtered on stone altars or attending idolatrous festivals. By the time he reached adulthood Muhammad was thought of as the most reliable and trustworthy member of the Meccan community. Even those who concerned themselves with petty tribal squabbles acknowledged Muhammad’s honesty and integrity.
Muhammad’s virtues and good moral character was established from a young age, and God continued to support and guide him. When he was 40 years old Muhammad was given the means to change the world, the means to benefit the whole of humanity

macoooo AdvancedLying about the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him)
Islamophobes, in an attempt to obtain an unchecked platform, do suggest Muslims misinform (“use taqiyya”) about the Prophet Muhammad (p). This is an utter absurdity as it is a grave sin for a Muslim to misinform about the Prophet Muhammad as the Prophet stated:
“Whoever lies about me intentionally shall take a place for himself in hell” (al-Adhkar (y102), 510-12) [4]
In fact, presenting misinformation about the Prophet (p) was considered an extreme offense amongst early Muslim communities:
Habib ibn ar-Rabi’ said that it is disbelief to alter his [Prophet Muhammad’s] description and its details. The one who does that openly is an unbeliever. He is asked to repent. [5]
So much for the Islamophobes claims of “Muslims using taqiyyah” regarding Prophet Muhammad (p).
Conclusion
Taqiyyah (taqiya, takiya) is not something to be writing home about. To use this practice to brandish Muslims as untrustworthy (or to demonise them) is unscholarly and unjust.
If you do encounter an anti-Muslim bigot on the internet crying “taqiyya” (there are plenty about),

macoooo AdvancedThe Catholic Church are worshipping the Queen of Heaven, a pagan goddess.
The Virgin Mary you worship is not the historical Virgin Mary.
431 A.D. - The Catholic Church introduces the worship of Mary. 104
431 A.D. - Council at Ephesus affirmed that Mary was the bearer of Jesus as “man and God”. 104
1854 - Roman Catholic Church introduce the “Immaculate conception of Mary”. 104
1904 - Roman Catholic Church “crowned” Mary. 105
1950 - Roman Catholic Church introduces the Assumption of Mary. 104
The crown on her head symbolises her now as the queen of heaven.
Paganism in Christianity
The Catholic Church and its followers annually celebrate the feast of the Virgin Mary. The tradition for this celebration is to make cakes.
“The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger.” Jeremiah 7:18 KJV
“And when we burned incense to the queen of heaven, and poured out drink offerings unto her, did we make her cakes to worship her, and pour out drink offerings unto her, without our men?” Jeremiah 44:19 KJV
The pagan goddess Isis was also represented standing on the crescent moon, with twelve stars surrounding her head. In almost every Roman Catholic Church on the continent of Europe may be seen pictures and statues of Mary, the “Queen of Heaven”, standing on the crescent moon and her head surrounded with twelve stars.

macoooo Advanced\\\\\\\\\\\\
All perfect praise be to Allah, The Lord of the Worlds. I testify that there is none worthy of worship except Allah, and that Muhammad sallallaahu `alayhi wa sallam ( may Allaah exalt his mention ) is His slave and Messenger.
It is possible that you are referring to the Hadith narrated by Abu Burdah ibn Abu Moosa under the authority of his father may Allaah be pleased with them that the Prophet, sallallahu ‘alayhi wa sallam, said: “There will come people amongst Muslims on the Day of Resurrection with numerous sins, as heavy as a mountain, and Allah, The Exalted, would forgive them, and He would place their sins on the Jews and the Christians.” [Muslim] The Hadith does not mean that all Muslims shall have their sins forgiven, but rather means that this would happen to a group of Muslims.
Al-Albani classified the Hadith as authentic in his book Saheeh Al-Jami’. He changed his opinion later on and judged it as Shath (i.e., Hadith narrated by a trustworthy narrator but it differs from the one narrated by other trustworthy narrators) in his book As-Silsilah Adh-Dha‘eefah.
Therefore, it is pointless to resort to the figurative interpretation of his narration despite the fact that its apparent indication contradicts the authentic and established principles, inferred from the verse that reads (what means): {That no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another.} [Quran 53: 38]. Allah knows best.” [End of quote]
Assuming it is authentic, An-Nawawi may Allaah have mercy upon him interpreted it in his book Sharh Saheeh Muslim, saying: “It means that Allah, The Almighty, forgives these sins for Muslims, and places equal sins upon the Jews and Christians for their disbelief and misdeeds, and thus, they would enter Hellfire due to their misdeeds and not because of the sins of these Muslims.” [End of quote] He may Allaah have mercy upon him added: “This interpretation is inevitable based on the verse that reads (what means): {That no bearer of burdens will bear the burden of another.} [Quran 53: 38]” [End of quote]
Another thing is that The God is the most just. When Islam does not reach a non-Muslim (for this example, a Christian or a Jew) then he will be judged separately during the Judgement Day. The same goes when only an incorrect information about Islam reaches a Jew or a Christian. For sure there are Jews who live in their Judaism bubble and have never heard anything correct about Islam. Some might not even know that Islam exists. Because there are people who are living in farms and such, away from the civilization. These people will be judged separately.
Only people who hear the correct message of Islam and knowingly reject it, they are most likely going to Hell. Sure, they have all their life in this word to change their views and to become a Muslim. But when they die in such state where they know the correct message of Islam and still reject it, then they are most likely going to Hell

macoooo AdvancedAllah, the Almighty, says: [AlifLamMim. The Romans have been defeated in the lowest land, and they, after their defeat, will be victorious within three to nine years.
Allah, the Almighty, says: [AlifLamMim. The Romans have been defeated in the lowest land, and they, after their defeat, will be victorious within three to nine years. The decision of the matter, before and after (these events) is only with Allah, (before the defeat of the Romans by the Persians, and after, i.e. the defeat of the Persians by the Romans). And on that Day, the believers (i.e. Muslims) will rejoice (at the victory given by Allah to the Romans against the Persians). With the help of Allah, He helps whom He wills, and He is the Almighty, the Most Merciful. (It is) a Promise of Allah (i.e. Allah will give victory to the Romans against the Persians), and Allah fails not in His Promise, but most of men know not.] (Ar-Rum: 1-6)
The Scientific Fact:
History books tell us about a battle between the Persian and the Byzantine empires – the latter signifies the eastern part of the Roman Empire – which was located in the area between Adhra`at and Basra, near the Dead Sea. The battle, which occurred in 619 A.C., ended with the victory of the Persians.
The Romans received a severe blow in that battle and everyone at that time expected their kingdom to fall. Surprisingly, they were engaged in another battle in 627 A.C. in the area of Nineveh where they defeated the Persians and occupied many areas. Some months later, the Byzantines signed an agreement with the Persians according to which they returned all previously occupied areas.
Geographical atlases show that the lowest spot on the surface of the earth is the area near the Dead Sea where the surface of the earth is as low as 395 meters below sea level. Photos taken by satellites support this fact.
Facets of Scientific Inimitability:
There are two miracles in these verses; 1) the Ever-Glorious Qur’an gave glad tidings of victory to the Romans in a course of three to nine years. After seven years, the prophecy of the Ever-Glorious Qur’an came true. This Roman victory coincided with the victory of the Muslims in the Battle of Badr. To the Arab disbelievers, the victory of the Romans seemed impossible and they started mocking the Muslims and ridiculing them about these Qura’nic words. When the prophecy came true, they were disappointed and humbled.
2) They told us about a geographical fact that was not known to anyone at that time. The verses said that the Romans would lose the battle in the lowest area of land which means that it is the nearest place to the Arabian Peninsula and is the lowest spot on earth; it is 1,312 feet (around 400 meters) below sea level. According to the Encyclopedia Britannica, satellites have recorded that it is indeed the lowest spot on earth. Historical facts testify that the battle took place at the lowest spot on earth; near to the Dead Sea. At that time, it was impossible for anyone to know this was the lowest area on earth. Does this not provide even more evidence that the Ever-Glorious Qur’an is the word of Allah?
Almighty Allah says: [And say [(O Muhammad) to these polytheists and pagans etc.]: All the praises and thanks be to Allah. He will show you His Ayat (signs, in yourselves, and in the universe or punishments, etc.), and you shall recognize them. And your Lord is not unaware of what you do.] (An-Naml: 93)

macoooo AdvancedI think it is a bit of misrepresentation to say that "all Jesus preached was love, fairness, charity, and topics of righteous living and salvation". He definitely said those things, but that wasn't all that he said. I think it's important to recognize that modern Christianity over-emphasizes the "love" aspect of the Jesus' teachings. For example here are some of Christ teachings that contradict his modern representation:
Christ came to condemn sin in the flesh, not to condone it: Romans 8:3
He called a woman of Canaan a dog because she was a different nationality other than a Jew: Mark 7:27
Jesus refers to gentiles as ‘dogs’, initially refusing to help the gentile woman — Matthew 15:26: But he answered and said, It is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it to dogs.
He said that he didn't come to give peace, but rather a sword and division: Luke 12:51, Matthew 10:34
He said that people who were not willing to forsake all they had to follow him were not fit for a field or the dunghill ( literally a pile of human waste that was placed outside the city): Luke 14:35
IMO, while Jesus did not preach violence, he was preparing for violence. Jesus was assembling the corps of Christ, which he was planning to lead to the retaking of the land of God’s gospel promise. when Jesus talked about turning the other cheek, doing good to those who despitefully use you, and going the extra mile, he was taking strategy against the Roman cohort which was stationed in Jerusalem. Jesus wanted to lull the Roman soldiers into a false sense of security while he assembled the corps of Christ before their noses. When Jesus had previously instructed the corps on the two great laws, he made it clear that their obligation was to be good to the brethren. He said nothing about being good to any outsiders.
Yes, Jesus was judgy, and He was intolerant of evil. He did “verbal violence.”
The zeal of thy house will consume me.” - John 2:17
And I won’t even talk about what he did with the money changers in the Temple!
Mark 6:11: And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear you, when ye depart thence, shake off the dust under your feet for a testimony against them. Verily I say unto you, It shall be more tolerable for Sodom and Gomorrha in the day of judgment, than for that city.
Jesus seemed to have an issue with anyone expressing love to their family or friends that might be seen as a bigger love than you have for him. He also seems to really hate fruit trees that don't give him fruit even when they are out of season. For some reason he curses them.

macoooo AdvancedIslam only allows wars if it is done with the intention of self-defense. Self-defense can both be direct and preemptive.
The Prophet SAWS never engaged in aggression and he always preferred peace, but when it was necessary, he would engage in self-defense. He also placed strict rules in combat for all Muslims to follow:
Do not cut down trees
Do not damage buildings
Do not target civilians
Do not terrorize the population
Target only soldiers of the enemy
Be merciful if the enemy gives up
Do not continue battling if the enemy surrenders
These are only some of the rules.
Mohammad Hijab said in an interview with Jordan B Peterson: "While Islam has the ability of making wars, it also has the ability of creating peace treaties"
-- Some people would argue that peace cannot exist alongside war, but this is a fallacy, because in order to protect peace and order, you would have to defend it, whether by diplomacy or militarily, if necessary.
Imagine a country that’s being attacked. They get killed, oppressed and they don’t do anything to defend themselves. Where’s the logic?
If not, imagine someone trying to break in your house and steal everything, rape all people inside. What would you do? Let them? Or fight them?
He only went to war after being:
Exiled from his hometown
Surviving multiple assassination attempts
Having his daughter mortally wounded
Having several of his early followed tortured and martyred.
Having their properties seized
I don't know about you. But I too would've been really miffed at this. Even then they waited an year for the revelation to come before departing on their first campaign.
The message that was sent to the prophet (pbuh) was the final message so it was important that it is preserved and defended. If the prophet (pbuh) didn't fight back the message would've died with him in Makkah.
you will know what an incredible, forgiving and loving guy
he was for example he forgave the person who killed his uncle he said "I can't look at you anymore(obviously because he killed his uncle) but I forgive you " Also you know Muhammad was literally targeted to die for a long time they were hunting for him until Allah gave the command to fight back and even sent angels to help Muhammad (PBUH) in the battle of Badr
Most of the battles he fought were defensive.
Islam is a religion of peace, but when your livelihood, personal rights and religion is at stake, you're allowed to pick up a weapon. Violence is only discouraged in Islam for personal reasons like disputes and verbal harassment, it's fairly similar to decent human expectations.
If someone opressors you – punches you repeatedly, despite your attempts to deeacalate the issue and go for a peaceful confrontation, are you going to just ignore it and die in the hands of your oppressor?
Its the same reason why police officers carry guns and defence forces exists.
You ought to read the conditions of war as prescribed in Islam too. Examples are, as much as possible, do not harm women or children, destory agriculture and livestocks etc.
Anyways to conclude learn more about Muhammed wars and you will see it super easily justified and even how he acted after he won the fight still praying still telling everyone to worship one God and never ever took credit for himself and this is just one of the many reasons that prophet Muhammad (PBUH )is one of if not the greatest humans in the world

macoooo AdvancedFor the past year, Israel has justified its brutal occupation and human rights violations against Palestinians by pointing to one day—October 7th. But this narrative erases decades of ethnic cleansing, massacres, and systematic oppression that define Israel’s 76-year occupation of Palestine.
In this video, we uncover the real history, from the 1948 Nakba to the Sabra and Shatila massacre and the ongoing siege of Gaza. The lies about 40 decapitated babies and mass rapes have been debunked, yet they were used to justify domination and violence.
Now, Netanyahu is repeating the same script in Lebanon, using fabricated stories to justify aggression there as well. As his grip on power weakens and Israel’s economy spirals, the world is finally waking up. This isn’t about self-defense—it’s about domination.
Watch to learn what didn’t happen on October 7—and what’s been happening for decades.
