This suggests that the prophets in general are not only the enlightened, but among the "lettered" as well. <br /><br />If the above is true, then it is really something that the last of the prophets, the one sent for modern times, was unlettered. What more if we consider that, according to the Biblical account, at the age of 10, Jesus the boy went into the Temple and read the Torah to the rabbis. <br /><br />It is perhaps because of that reason that the title unlettered prophet is used only for Muhammad SAW.SM Derishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13968496258475420465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2304369412849298861.post-6672029637372250882019-07-16T08:48:41.912+08:002019-07-16T08:48:41.912+08:00Assalamualaikum...
