87altogether,while the latter insult him by deifying him. Moreover, both are equally unworthy of that title because of their refusing to recognize the Last Prophet who has completed the list of the Prophets (pbuh) .We shall now proceed to prove that the Barnasha -the Son-of-Man- who was presented to the “Ancient of Days” and invested with power to kill the monster, was no other than Muhammad (pbuh) , whose very name literally means “the Praised and Illustrious.” Whatever other person you may try to invent in order to deprive the august Apostle of Allah of this unique glory and majesty bestowed on him in the Divine Court, you will only make yourselves ridiculous; and this for the following reasons:-1.
