[quote]Quote:- “The prophethood that has ended at the Prophet (sws) is merely the Proophethood of Shariat. The status of prophet still remains. So the conclusion is that no new shariah can abrogate the Shariah of Prophet (sws). Neither will it add any new law to the law of the Prophet (sws). The saying of the Prophet (sws) that prophethood and Risalat has ended, and there will be no prophet after him is actually telling this only. His (Prophet’s) saying means that there will be no prophet after him whose shariah will be against his Shariah. Whoever he (a new prophet) will be, he will be a follower of his (Prophet’s PBUH) Shariat.”

This is a misrepresentation of the opinion of Shaikh ibne Arabi, who was a scholar with strong sufi orientation. The following quote best represents his position in regard to the Finality of Prophethood among human beings:

"Prophethood and Messengerhood are absolutely ended on our prophet and Messenger. There is not anyone who will be appointed a prophet till the day of Judgment." (Shara Fususal Hakaha, p. 81)

I believe honesty demands that one does not misrepresent the opinion of any person by selectively presenting a short part of a sentence! Atleast

Fear Allah before quoting His Aulias out of context.
