Allah gives him the attribute of being the guide to the worlds (Alamin, mankind, Jinn and all creatures.)
"Muhammad (peace be upon him) was the most moral man to ever live, a perfect example of Allah's guidance. The Qur'an says, ‘And indeed, you are of a great moral character' (Surah Al-Qalam, 68:4). He was honest—called Al-Amin, the Trustworthy—kind to orphans, freed slaves, and stood for justice, even against his own. He lived simply, sharing all, and led with mercy, as when he forgave Mecca's conquerors.
Jesus (peace be upon him) brought the Injeel—‘We gave him the Injeel, in which was guidance and light' (Surah Al-Ma'idah, 5:46)—and Muhammad completed that prophetic legacy. The Qur'an says, ‘The Messiah, son of Mary, was no more than a messenger' (Surah Al-Ma'idah, 5:75), and Muhammad was the final one, sealing Allah's message. His life—prayer, modesty, fairness—shows how to worship Allah alone, surpassing all in virtue as Jesus did in his time."
Surah Al-Ahzab, 33:21
The assertion that Muhammad was the "most moral man who ever lived" relies on self-assessment and ignores historical details that, by Christian standards, demonstrate moral compromise. The true, unique standard of moral perfection is Jesus Christ, the sinless Son of God.
1. Sinlessness: The Absolute Moral Test
The foundational difference between Jesus Christ and Muhammad is the absolute, non-negotiable test of sinlessness.
2. Moral Action vs. Moral Compromise
While Muhammad's kindness to orphans and actions against injustice are noted, they must be weighed against moral compromises recorded in Islamic sources.
The most moral man is not merely a good guide; he is the source and embodiment of the Law. This title belongs only to Jesus Christ, the Living Word of God (John 1:1, 14), whose life offers a standard of perfection that requires no exception, apology, or historical context to justify.
