Assalamo alaikum. The Prophets (alaihimus salaam) are not masoomeen (infallible/sinless). There are examples in the Holy Quran which clearly show they were not sinless. They are human beings, but nevertheless they are the best class of human beings, being the most righteous and truthful. With regard to the conveying of the message of Islam which is their function, they are completely perfect and do not make any mistakes in that regard, but they are helped by the Holy Spirit. |
