Does the Prophet ﷺ Possess Bestowed Knowledge of the Unseen?

Question

Does the Prophet ﷺ possess bestowed knowledge of the unseen or not?

Answer

Allah, the Pure, has granted the Noble Prophet ﷺ knowledge of many unseen things — for instance, the conditions of the grave, the conditions of the Resurrection, Paradise, Hell and the like; however, on account of his knowledge of these things the Prophet ﷺ will not be called ‘Alim al-Ghayb (Knower of the Unseen): this attribute belongs to God the Exalted alone.
