He forbade people from praising him excessively and attributing to him divine attributes. A man said: ’’ O messenger of Allah, what Allah and you will will occur’’. The Prophet immediately corrected this mistake by saying:’’ You are making me equal to Allah. Say, what Allah wills, and then what you will”. He also said, “Don’t praise me excessively as Christians do to ‘Easa, the son of Maryam (Jesus Christ). I am only a slave. So, say, slave of Allah and His Messenger’’ He respected the prophets that came before him.
