Witness is called “Shaahid”Because he was present on the spot. Prophet peace be upon him was called“shaahid” because He bares testimony in the world by being the knower of theUnseen and the one who sees it. Otherwise, all prophets were witness. Prophetpeace be upon him will be an eye-witness for the Prophets on the Day of judgment.This witnessing cannot be without having seen. Similarly, he is “Mubashir,Nazeer and Daaiyan llaUah” as one who has seen. Other prophets have alsoperformed these tasks but have done them by hearing. That is why only prophetpeace be upon him went on Me'raj. 'Siraajum-Muneer' is the sun which is presenteverywhere in the world and in every home. Prophet peace be upon him is alsopresent in every place. Thus, this wholeverse is a proof that he is present and hearing.

My mother said that she would not be satisfied unless the Prophet was made a witness to it. I being a young boy, my father held me by the hand and took me to the Prophet . He said to the Prophet, "His mother, bint Rawaha, requested me to give this boy a gift." The Prophet said, "Do you have other sons besides him?" He said, "Yes." The Prophet said, <b>"Do not make me a witness for injustice." Narrated Ash-Shabi that the Prophet said, "I will not become a witness for injustice."</b> (Bukhari Book #48, Hadith #818)<br /><br />And according to Brelvis our deeds are presented to Prophet peace be upon him. (And they quote weak hadith and i have quoted its weakness in another article). According to this hadith mentioned in Bukhari it is clear that Prophet peace be upon him will not become witness for injustice. And we know that injustice is going on now a days/at the time of Prophet peace be upon him/before the time of Prophet peace be upon him. Prophet peace be upon him clearly rejected the idea the brelvis present.<br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: justify; "><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 100%; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: justify; "><div class="MsoNormal"><span>Fifthly Anas reported that a person was charged with fornication with the slavegirl of Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him).

From this we understand that Prophet has cometo all the Muslims and he is close to each and every Muslim and Muslims are allover the world therefore Prophet is all over the world too.
