Question

They also quote a hadith in favor of their claim. They usethis as a pretext to some other distorted beliefs that they have inherited fromtheir predecessors. I acknowledge the gravity of this issue, however being aMuslim we must know how was our beloved nabi different from us in terms ofhis physical presence. Jazakum Allah khair.

Answer

In terms of physical presence, Rasulullah, Sall-Allahu alayhi wa sallam, as well as all the other prophets, Alayhim salam, were the children of Adam, Alayhi salam, who was created from clay.
