Description
Summary:	Using Haleem’s hypothesis on the context of revelation and Wright’s progressive revelation theory as theoretical frameworks, this paper examines the theological differences in Muhammad’s messages in Mecca and Medina and argues that the theological progression shows how context influences Muhammad’s reception, understanding and application of revelations. Also, the paper examined the implications of Muhammad’s theological advancements for some contemporary conversations in Islam’s scholarship. These discussions show the significance of Muhammad’s prophetic ministry to his context and suggest how his theological emphasis is significant to contemporary contexts.
