The Shahada explicitly mentions that Mohammed is the 'final' messenger of God. Also called "Khatam an-Nabiyyin,” usually translated as “Seal of the Prophets.” That phrase comes from the Quran (33:40.) Muslims interpret it to mean he is the last prophet in a long line of prophets.

Muslims often consider what Mohammed said to be the end of the conversation, contrary to numerous prophets that came before him.

So if there's 'one' prophet to 'go to', under Islam, Mohammed is the alpha prophet.

Some Muslims don't even believe Jesus was crucified. Some think there was a substitution.

The abrahamic religions are so dynamic yet the ego(d)centricity remains. You move from a dumb God that gets fooled by Satan chapter after chapter. Getting God to torture his most devout worshippers. Fun.

Then you get Jesus! Praise Jesus! Love each other. The hippy socialist. Flipping tables and feeding the hungry, healing the sick, visiting prisoners, and he even raised the dead occasionally. Truly God in the flesh.

Then you get Allah. A transcendental god. A thing that's best described not by what it is, but by what it is not.

Then how they go from no after life, aka sheol. To heaven and hell (many mansions, weeping gnashing of teeth). Then you get paradise with 72 virgins, so kind of like Mormonism. Oh wait? You don't get your own planet and godhood itself? SMH. noob.
