HOLY PROPHET MUHAMMAD(PBUH)

HOLY PROPHET BUT A MAN ; HIM LIMITATIONS

While the Qur'an bears testimony to the sublimity of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) character, and records some of the miracles performed by him and the special favours conferred on him by Allah, it makes him tell the pagans, again and again, that he was no more than a man like them but he received revelation (wahyi) from Allah (17:93 ; 18:10 ; 41:6) ; that he was a mortal and would die like them (39:30) ; that he did not claim to be an angel (6:50) ; that he did not know exactly when the Hour of judgment would come and its knowledge was with Allah alone (7:187) ; that he had no knowledge of the unseen - ghaib - beyond that which Allah had told him (6:50 ; 7:188 ; 10:20) ; that he had no power to control any benefit or harm to himself except as Allah please (7:188) ; that he did not in his power to cause them evil or bring them good (72:21) that he could not guide every  one whom he loved and it is Allah Who gives guidance (28:56) ; and that he could not change the revelation received by him from Allah (10:15 ; 7:203). There are a number of other to show that the Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) did not claim to posses any supernatural powers of his own
