Muhammad Was Sent To All Of Mankind


The first implication of the testimony that Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah is the belief that Allah sent the Prophet Muhammad (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) to all mankind and the jinn until the Day of Judgement. Allah states in the Qur'aan  in Soorah 7 Al-'Araaf Aayah 151 Say (to them O Muhammad): O Mankind! I am the Messenger of Allah to you all, (the Messenger) of Him to Whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and of the earth. There is no god but He. He gives life, and makes to die.Believe then in Allah, and in His Messenger (Muhammad), the Prophet who could neither read nor write, who believes in Allah and in His Words (the Qur'aan), and follows him so that perhaps you will be guided.

The Prophet (sallallahu 'alaihi wa sallam) has said: And the prophets were formerly sent to their people only, whereas I have been sent to all mankind. [Al-Bukhaari and Muslim]
