Sayyidunā Mūsā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم again submitted, “O Allah! I read in the Tawrah about an Ummah that if they intend to do a good deed, one reward will be written for them, and if they carry it out, ten rewards will be recorded for them. O Allah! Make them my Ummah.”

Allah Almighty declared,تِلْكَ أُمَّةُ أَحْمَد  “O Mūsā! This is the Ummah of My beloved Prophet Aḥmad al-Muṣṭafā صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.”

After reading and hearing so many virtues of this Ummah and realizing that it belonged to Aḥmad al-Muṣṭafā صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, Sayyidunā Mūsā عَـلَيْـهِ الـسَّـلاَم, then finally submitted:يَا رَبِّ فَاجْعَلْنِيْ مِنْ أُمَّةِ أَحْمَد “O Allah! Then make me among the Ummah of Aḥmad al-Muṣṭafā صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم.”^[1]

اللہ اکبر! This is our value. This is our worth, our significance!! Take a moment to reflect on our character, our manners, and our habits. Do we truly embody these virtues? Are we even worthy of the greatness and status mentioned? What a pity!

Why is the Ummah of the Prophet ﷺ the final Ummah?

O beloved Islamic brothers! Have you ever pondered why this Ummah was made the final Ummah? Approximately 124,000 Prophets عَـلَـيْـهِمُ الـصَّلٰوةُ وَالـسَّـلَام    were sent, and each had their nation. But Allah Almighty honoured us by making us a part of the Ummah of the final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, and declared this Ummah to be the last. Our beloved Prophet صَلَّی اللہُ تَعَالٰی عَلَیْہِ وَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ is the final Prophet. No new Prophet will ever be sent after him, and there is no other Ummah after us. We are the last Ummah, and only the Day of Judgement remains. What is the wisdom behind this? Why were we made the final Ummah?
