What is the meaning of "Khatim al-Nabiyyin" (Seal of the Prophets) linguistically and terminologically, what are the proofs for the finality of prophethood with him, does the descent of Jesus (peace be upon him) contradict this, and what is the ruling on one who does not believe in the finality of prophethood with Muhammad (peace be upon him)?

Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, is the Seal of the Prophets, as stated in the Quran and , and there is no prophet after him. When Jesus, peace be upon him, descends, he will rule according to Muhammad's law, and he will not be a new prophet. Whoever claims new prophethood after Muhammad is a disbeliever.
