Abstract

The title expresses the intent of this study. Against the background of the history of prophethood in the Islamic tradition and a consideration of scholarly studies of the phenomenon, this thesis investigates some fundamental issues from the perspective of the Qur'an, a source which has been slighted in previous studies.
