In Islam, Muhammad is known as uswa hasana, al-insan al-kamil, par excellence. It is an arabic phrase loosely translated, meaning, the 'Perfect Man' and is attributed to Muhammad, in Islamic theology. Prominent Sunni Islamic scholar Muhammad Alawi al-Maliki, has also published a Sirah on Muhammad as the al-insan al-kamil. The Sufis also regard Muhammad as the Perfect Saint, or Universal Man. Al-Jili was also the author of Al-Insan al-Kamil. Muhammad is also identified with the Logos (as in biblical Judaism, the word of God) and the Divine Intellect.

The Mi'raj, or Nocturnal Ascent, of the Prophet is the prototype of all spiritual wayfaring in Islam, and no group in Islamic society has been as conscientious as the Sufis in emulating the Prophet as the perfect saint and what later Sufis were to call the Perfect or Universal Man (al-insan al-kamil).
