Ibn Abdul Barr and the Hadith "There is No Prophethood After Me Except if Allah Wills"


The great Islamic scholar of the Maliki school of thought, Ibn Abdul Barr (d.463 H), explaining the Hadith of “La Nabi Ba'di” (there is no Prophet after me) has written:

وفيه أنه لا نبي بعده - صلى الله عليه وسلم - ، وهو تفسير قوله - عليه السلام - لا نبوة بعدي إلا ما شاء الله ، وهو حديث يروى من حديث المغيرة بن شعبة . فإن صح كان معنى الاستثناء فيه الرؤيا الصالحة على ما في هذا الحديث

Translation: The Hadith “There is no Prophethood after me except if Allah wills” is narrated from the Hadith of Al-Mughirah bin Shu'bah. It is correct, the meaning of the exception being the pious visions.

Reference: At-Tamheed; v.5 p.55
