So do some Baha'is.That’s the question. Muslims should know this with their eyes closed.
I learned somewhere that you can believe in a prophet after Mohammed and still be Muslim.
Quran 33:40That’s the question. Muslims should know this with their eyes closed.
Quran 33:40
40. Muhammad is not the father of any of your men; but he is the Messenger of God, and the seal of the prophets. God is Cognizant of everything.
It depend on the understanding of the words used.Where does it say He is the last of the Messengers? That’s what the priests and scholars say but 33:40 nowhere says that Muhammad is the last Messenger. Read it very carefully.
It depend on the understanding of the words used.
Does it mean Khatam (Seal) or does it mean Khatim (Last)
I found both words used, so does it mean there will be different understanding of the words, or does it mean that Muhammad was the last?
Does it mean Muhammad sealed the end of Abrahamic religion and Baha'i is something totally new?
I do find @loverofhumanity question to be a valid one and it should be discussedBoth "last" and "seal" are used in various translations. "Seal" is more poetic and invokes an image of a seal put on a document that is finished.
From Meher Baba, Muhammad was indeed the last of such figures in a vast "cycle of cycles" lasting over 150 trillion years in the Hindu conception - much much longer than the age of this universe and that now something new will come. So yes, something totally new.

On this its important to understand the difference in Nabi ( Prophet) and rasool (messenger)Let’s say for the sake of Muslims it means last.
The surah says Muhammad is last of the Prophets. It does not say Muhammad is last of the Messengers.
All those called Prophets such as Daniel, Isaiah, Ezekiel were called Nabi because their function was to prophesy the future including the coming of new ‘Messengers’ such as Jesus and Muhammad. But as Nabi Prophets they did not bring a new religion or covenant.
Muhammad was the last Prophet to prophesy the future.
But Muhammad was a Messenger also because He brought a new religion, a new Holy Book and a new Covenant.
Does the Quran say that Muhammad is ‘seal of the Messengers Rasool’? No, only the last of the Prophets Nabi
If you examine closely the Quran, you will see that Noah, Abraham, Moses, Jesus and Muhammad were all both Messengers Rasool and Prophets Nabi but all the others were just Prophets Nabi
The Quran says that after Muhammad there will be no more Nabi but it does not say there will be no more Rasool - Messengers Who bring a new religion.
There are prophecies in the Quran regarding New Messengers from God to appear.

An other question is: why is it important for you to "discredit" the quran? Why do you find it important to say "Baha'i teachings is "more correct" than the Quran?Let’s say for the sake of Muslims it means last.

The problem is that no one has given importance to my question - which was "What evidence do Quran and Kitab-e-Aqdas have that we should believe any of them?" Or for that matter even Torah or Bible?I do find @loverofhumanity question to be a valid one and it should be discussed
