The Infallibility of Prophets

401 students

The Infallibility of Prophets is an online course that explores one of the most complex discussions in Islamic theology. Muslim theologians consider ‘ismah, infallibility, as an important quality for the person who holds the position of prophethood. This quality is not confined to the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad (peace be upon him and his progeny) but is also found in all the prophets and messengers of God who came before Islam. However, there are some verses of the Qur’an that apparently imply that Prophet Adam and some other prophets had committed sins. The course is an attempt to study the concept of infallibility in light of the Qur’an.
