owidctlpar\sb269\cf1 The messenger who brings down the message, (i.e. Gabriel) is trusted. So is the recipient who acts as a messenger to human beings (i.e. the Prophet Muhammad, (SAWA)). The Prophet has a passive role in this regard, that is, he does not add anything of his personality to what has been revealed. He only acts as a pure and clean channel for the message to the people. The Qur'an clearly rejects any possibility of something being added to the Quran by the Prophet:\cf0

owidctlpar\li845\ri749\sb278\cf1 'And if the apostle were to invent any sayings in Our name We should certainly seize him by his right hand. And We should certainly then cut off the artery of his heart: Nor could any of you withhold him (from Our wrath). But verily this is a Message for the Allah-fearing. And We certainly know that there are amongst you those that reject (it). But truly (Revelation) is a cause of sorrow for the Unbelievers. But verily it is Truth of assured certainty. So glorify the name of your Lord Most High." (69:44-52)\cf0
