First Occurrence Of ‘Muhammad’
وَمَا مُحَمَّدٌ إِلَّا رَسُولٌ۬ قَدۡ خَلَتۡ مِن قَبۡلِهِ ٱلرُّسُلُۚ أَفَإِيْن مَّاتَ أَوۡ قُتِلَ ٱنقَلَبۡتُمۡ عَلَىٰٓ أَعۡقَـٰبِكُمۡۚ وَمَن يَنقَلِبۡ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَيۡهِ فَلَن يَضُرَّ ٱللَّهَ شَيۡـًٔ۬اۗ وَسَيَجۡزِى ٱللَّهُ ٱلشَّـٰڪِرِينَ ١٤٤
Muhammad was no more than a messenger like the messengers before him. Should he die or get killed, would you turn back on your heels? Anyone who turns back on his heels, does not hurt ALLAH in the least. ALLAH rewards those who are appreciative.
Proofs and revelations
Allah has cited examples of two of his servants (Muhammad and Jesus). The people have idolized them after their deaths and started worshipping them instead of Allah. Thus, they are committing the gross sin of idolatry and they will be fully held accountable on the Day of Judgement.
3:144 and 5:75 - the proofs:
3:144 Part: Muhammad was no more than a messenger like the messengers before him.
5:75 Part: The Messiah, son of Mary, was no more than a messenger like the messengers before him
Alternating proofs of the Sacred Codes:
In 3:144 (part) the messenger’s letters are 19.
In 5:75 (part) the ALLAH letters are 14.
This teaches us that all messengers are just like the messengers before them. Those who start to idolize them and think that they are the last messenger, end up committing gross idolatry and violate Allah’s Absolute Authority to do as He pleases.
The two largest idol worshiping communities from the people of the scripture are the Christians and the so-called Muslims. The proofs are meant to warn them of their disbelief in Allah and His messengers.
Chapter 3 + verse 144 + Chapter 5 + verse 75 reveals the sum of 227 which stands for the believers (Al-Mu'mineen). This teaches us the true believers believe in all the messengers without creating distinction among them nor do they idolize the messengers or treat them as the last messenger.
Those who have strayed away and transgressed the limits of their religion will indeed be held accountable for their gross sin of idolatry on the Day of Resurrection. The messengers never claim themselves to be gods or partners with Allah.
