As-Salaam alaikum,
The Noble Prophet, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:--

"The thing which has obscenity will be spoilt by it and the
thing which has modesty will be beatified by it." (Tirmidhi)

Nothing touches our hearts more profoundly than our blessed Prophet Muhammad's examplary humbleness, alaihi salaat was salaam!

- Allah Ta'ala gave him all Divine Wisdom but very often prayed to his Lord, 'Rabbi Zidni Ilman.. My Lord, give me more knowledge'.


He was an unlettered Prophet, but all people learnt from him.

- He slept on the floor on a mattress of straw, but he was the Prince of the universe, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam.
- All creation praises him, but he called himself Allah's servant.

- During the battle of Uhud, his companions requested him to invoke Allah's curse on the enemy. Though his face was bleeding,
he prayed for forgiveness: 'O Allah, forgive my people for they do not know.'...
 
As-Salaam alaikum,
Sometimes we mistakenly or ignorantly accuse our brothers/sisters of kufr/shirk, when we hear or see of what they say/write!! This is wrong, in my view. Indeed, Allah Ta'ala is All-Knowing but in the Holy Qur'an He said:--

"Wa Fauqa Kulli zi 'Ilmin 'aleem (Above every knower is a higher knower)"...ayat 76, Surat Yusufa (12:76)


In observing that Allah Ta'ala gave His Bloved Messenger, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, Divine Wisdom for me is just scratching the surface... nobody knows the level and depth of Allah's such favors to him, alaihi salaat was-salaam. Few samples/examples are:--
(1) In the Holy Qur'an, Allah says:--

"Such are some of the stories of the unseen, which We have revealed unto you:
before this, neither you nor your people knew them..." (11:49)

"Say... Allah has already informed us of the true state of matters concerning you;
it is your actions that Allah and His Apostle will observe..." (9:94)

In the Hadith, we have it where the Messenger of Allah himself said:--

"My life is a great good for you: you relate from and narrations are related to you,
and my death contains good for you as well, for I observe the 'amal of my Ummah.
If I find good I thank Allah,a nd if I see other than that, I ask forgiveness for you." (al-Bazzar in his Musnad).

"Allah has folded the entire earth in front of me. So I can simultaneously observe everything from
its east to its west." (Muslim)

"Allah has placed this worldly manifestation in such a mysterious way in front of my eyes that
whatever will be created until the Day of Judgement, I can see them as if they are right on top
of my palm." (Tabrani)

From the subtlety of his haqiqat (reality), space and time are boundaries are made null and void... Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam. Everything is made present simultaneously. Allah's mystcal manifestation (Tajalli) to His Prophet was in his power of hearing and seeing.... that is why he said: " I can see what you cannot see, I can hear what you cannot hear." (Ahmad and Tirmidhi)... and there are more we do not know of...

 
Brother its true that no one knows the exact level of knowledge of a person, but it's been unequivocally established by the absolute consensus that no created thing can share any of Allah's attributes, so rest assured that to call Rasul sollelahualayhi wasalaam, the all knowing is indeed kufr and shirk
