Muhammad implement in the songhai Government?
Muhammad I Askia, the ruler of the Songhai Empire in the late 15th century, implemented significant reforms to strengthen the government. He centralized authority, expanded the bureaucracy, and established a system of provincial governors to improve administrative efficiency. Askia also promoted Islam as a unifying force and encouraged education, leading to the growth of cities like Timbuktu as centers of learning and culture. His leadership helped solidify the empire's power and influence in West Africa.
Askia the Great (ca. 1443 - 1538), born Muhammad Toure in Futa Tooro, later called Askia was an emperor, military commander, and political reformer of the Songhai Empire in the late 15th century, the successor of Sunni Ali Ber.
Askia Muhammad strengthened his country and made it the largest country in West Africa's history. At its peak under Muhammad, the Songhai Empire encompassed the Hausa states as far as Kano (in present-day Nigeria) and much of the territory that had belonged to the Sonnghai empire in the west.
His policies resulted in a rapid expansion of trade with Europe and Asia, the creation of many schools, and made Islam an integral part of the empire.
Why are there no prophets needed after Muhammad?
Answer 1
It is per God will to have prophet Muhammad as the last prophet, the Qur'an as the last God holy book, and Islam per Qur'an revelation to prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as the last God religion.
This explains:
Qur'an says (meaning English translation):
"This day I have perfected for you your religion and completed My favor upon you and have approved for you Islam as religion. But whoever is forced by severe hunger with no inclination to sin - then indeed, Allah is Forgiving and Merciful" (5:3)
Refer to related questions below.
Answer 2
To answer that question, we shall know what is the history of religion and the sequence with which religion improved through time:
The sequence of prophets Allah sent to his people was well organized:
1- the message of prophets developed as people's lives and minds developed.
At 1st, messages emphasized on worshiping Allah, without demanding any physical duties from people, like fasting as e.g.
As people's experiences and knowledge developed, their moralities became softer; minds became more open & ready for more understanding.
2- Judaism was nearly the 1st message that demanded some duties from its followers, like fasting and prayer, but still many issues concerning daily life didn't show up, as their minds were not yet ready for the change.
Christianity came to make some other developments.Then Islam came to fulfill all the needs of mankind, to seal the religion, the Deen (the Arabic word of religion, the word is also singular, with no plural), and to make the right clear for the next coming nations until Allah inherits earth.
3- In each religion, there were unlawful people, who were not sincere in transferring the message, they added and deleted in their books, fro their own benefits, to assure they will have power over their nations, something Allah was not satisfied with; those people were the 1st to fight Islam from its beginning till now.
But, in Islam, Allah said: "We have, without doubt, sent down the Message; and We will assuredly guard it (from corruption)."
Answer 3
The above are solely orthodox Islamic perspectives. There are other offshoots of Islam, such as Baha'i, Druze, Ahmadiyya, Alawites, Alevis, etc. who have additional prophets and claim that Islam did not meet the burden of proving that there was no longer a need for a prophet.
However, the orthodox Islamic view is that because Mohammed revealed that he was the final seal of the prophets, that no other prophet would be necessary.
Can you be a Muslim without praying?
The consensus of scholars is that leaving the five daily prayers intentionally ( not out of laziness or being busy - which sre still not excused ) for a period of three consecutive days, removes one from the Ummah of Islam. It may also mean that one is not a Muslim at all.
The Prophet (peace be upon him) said: "Al ahdu baynanaa wa baynahum As-Salah. Fa man tarackahaa, fa qad kafar"
" The Covenant, between us and them is the Salah; so he who leaves it, has DISBELIEVED.
It is also the consensus of the scholars that major sins do not remove one from Islam - but leaving the prayers does.

What are the main points of the story of Muhammad and the angel gABRIEL?
The Holy Prophet (SAW) used to retire to the cave of Hira to meditate. Once he heard a voice say, "Read." The voice was of Hazrat Jibrael (R). He replied that he did not know how to read. The voice again said to read. He replied "I cannot read". Then he hugged the Prophet (SAW) and told him to read. He said, "What can I read?" The voice said:
"Read in the name of your Lord Who creates,
Creates man from cloth
Read: And your Lord is Most Bounteous
Who teaches by the pen.
Teaches man that which he knew not."
The angel then told him he had been appointed the messenger of Allah.
no
AnswerNo; he is not an Israelite. But the question that most of us ask now, arose before during the time of Muhammad s.a.w; preaching the words of God onto Arabia. Was Muhammad mentioned? This was the question by inhabitants of Arabia towards Jews that embraced Islam. And if we refer to the claim by past Jewish converts, they had quote verses from Isaiah 42.
Lets look at the passages in Isaiah. God address His chosen servants with their names, and in the prophesied verse we see God mention clearly the prophet's name. Some examples of God mentioning His servant by name.
(My Servant Isaiah, My Servant Eliakim, David My Servant, Jacob My Servant, My Servant Israel, and so in Isaiah 42:1 , God specifically mention My Servant Ahmad)
In Isaiah 42:1, it is deemed not a coincidence upon seeing the writing of both ×תמך (Atmc) ×חמד (Ahmd). And the word before ×תמך (Atmc), is עבדי (Abdi~My Servant). For indeed, it is indicating Ahmad; Abdullah (Ahmad; Servant of God).
Not to mention ×תמך (Atmc) happen to be a special term foretelling the coming of a righteous man and is used only ONCE throughout the entire Book. [could this be a copying error or an intended error?]
The prophecy tells about Ahmad; 'Servant of God' whom will war to correct the wrongs and bringing judgement based on the law of God. He will liberate act of worshiping molten images and thus Arabia (wilderness desert, villages and cities) will glorify God since then. As can be seen today, Arabia are worshiping,praising God and singing words of God daily. Inhabitants from all around the world gather there and voice out loud their praise to God.
And we continue reading Isaiah 42:18 - 25; God remind the 'blind and deaf' about the wrath of God towards Children of Israel, whom neglect the message brought by past Servant of God.
And not to repeat; the same mistake upon the coming of the new Servant of God

(2) Sawda: Pagan.
(3) Ayesha: born into a Muslim family.

(9) Juwairiya: Pagan. (Some say her clan had converted to a form of Judaism.)
(10) Ramla: Pagan.
(11) Safiya: Jewish.
