Hadiths about The Muhammad (Saw) as a prophet.

According to Ibn ʿAbbas, one day ʿUmar (ra) said on the pulpit, “I heard the Prophet (saw) say, ‘Do not exaggerate in praising me as the Christians praised the son of Maryam, for I am only a servant. So, call me the servant of Allah and His Messenger.’” (al-Bukhari, al-Anbiyaʾ, 48)

According to Rafiʿ b. Khadij (ra), when the Prophet (saw) came to Medina … (after stating his own view about grafting date-palms), he said, “I am a human being, so when I command you about a thing pertaining to religion, do accept it, and when I command you about a thing out of my personal opinion, keep it in mind that I am a human being.” (Muslim, al-Fadaʾil, 140)

According to Abu Hurayra (ra), Allah’s Messenger (saw) said, “My similarity in comparison with the other prophets before me is that of a man who has built a house nicely and beautifully, except for a place of one brick in a corner. The people go about it and wonder at its beauty, but say: ‘Would it be that this brick be put in its place!’ So I am that brick, and I am the last of the prophets.” (al-Bukhari, al-Manaqib, 18)

According to Abu Musa (ra), the Prophet (saw) said, “My example and the example of what I have been sent with is that of a man who came to some people and said, ‘O people! I have seen the enemy’s army with my own eyes, and I am the plain warner; so protect yourselves!’ Then a group of his people obeyed him and fled at night proceeding stealthily until they were safe, while another group of them disbelieved him and stayed at their places until morning when the army came upon them, and killed and ruined them completely. So this is the example of that person who obeys me and follows what I have brought (the Holy Qur’an and the Sunna), and the example of the one who disobeys me and disbelieves the truth that I have brought.” (al-Bukhari, al-Iʿtisam, 2; Muslim, al-Fadaʾil, 16)

According to Abu Hurayra (ra), Allah’s Messenger (saw) said, “Whosoever obeys me, obeys Allah, and whosoever disobeys me, disobeys Allah.” (Muslim, al-Imara, 33; al-Bukhari, al-Ahkam, 1)
