In your lecture on the night of the Prophet’s blessed birth, while explaining the second supplication of al-Sahifa al-Sajjadiyya and the phrase دون الأمم الماضیه, you said:
“Prophet Moses wished to be part of Muhammad’s community. None of the great prophets asked to attain Muhammad’s station, because he understood and had witnessed the height of the Prophet’s glory and greatness, and saw himself as no more than a speck before the Prophet’s stature. Rather, the prophets humbly asked to be part of Muhammad’s community.”
⁉ Yet don’t the hadith and historical sources tell us that all the prophets benefited from the Prophet’s blessings and rank in advancing their own standing? Why, then, do you put it this way? By “blessing,” do you mean the Prophet’s physical presence, or something else?
