Abstract

In the works of Muslims on heresiography and theology, those who disbelieve in prophecy are referred to as those who believe in suspicion of Barahameh. In such works, Barahameh are the people who do not believe in prophecy on rational grounds. Muslims do not have a sound knowledge of Barahameh. In fact, within the Hindu tradition, they are not regarded as disbelievers in prophecy, the way it is understood by Muslims. It is not clear why Muslims have regarded Barahameh as disbelievers in prophecy; every opinion depends on ifs and buts.
