Imam Ghazali teaches that Muhammad (saws) was sent as a teacher. The prophets are teachers. Teaching is not always through a professor and his classroom of students. It can be teaching, the prophetic way.
 
Allah gave Sulayman all the treasures of the earth. Mount Uhud, Imam Ghazali says, turned to gold for Muhammad (saws). This is about treasures, things Allah does not care for in the least. He gives all this to His prophets though He cares not in anything for these things, treasures. So for sure, the things He values, knowledge and wisdom, He gives to them without limits, and it is beyond any understanding.
 
The prophets have knowledge of all things. They have all knowledge. They have the knowledge of first and last, and they have the knowledge of all things. They have, thanks to their knowledge, the ability to say be, and it will be.
 
However, prophets teach. For example, Muhammad (saws) did not need to migrate to Madina and leave Makkah. He could have thrown sand at them, and they would be finished, like the Qur'an says, like Muhammad (saws) did at Badr. Ibn Maryam (Jesus) said: "one of you is going to betray me before the end of the night." He did not say who. But he knew who it was. He was teaching.
 
The prophets have all knowledge, and then there is those who earned their pleasures. Muhammad (saws ) said in Hadith he poured in the chest of Abu Bakr all that Allah had poured in his chest.
 
He also said (saws) Abu Bakr surpasses others because of a secret in his heart.


What do you base this on?  The knowledge that the Prophets had was given to them by Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He), but they did not have knowledge of all things.  Here is a proof that Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) did not have "knowledge of all things" and never claimed to know all things:

"Verily the knowledge of the hour is with Allah (alone). It is He Who sends down rain, and He Who knows what is in the wombs. Nor does any one know what it is that he will earn on the morrow: Nor does any one know in what land he is to die. Verily with Allah is full knowledge and He is acquainted (with all things)" (Surah Luqman, 31:34)

If the Prophets knew all things, they would know when the Day of Judgment would come, yet we know that whenever he was asked when it would come, the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) said that he did not know and that only Allah (Glorified and Exalted be He) knows when it will occur.

"It was narrated that Abu Hurairah said: �The Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) came out one day to the people, and a man came to him and said: �O Messenger of Allah, when will the Hour be?� He said: �The one who is asked about it does not know more than the one who is asking. But I will tell you of its portents. When the slave woman gives birth to her mistress, that is one of its portents. When the barefoot and naked become leaders of the people, that is one of its portents. When shepherds compete in constructing buildings, that is one of its portents. (The Hour) is one of five (things) which no one knows except Allah.� Then the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) recited the words: �Verily, Allah, with Him (alone) is the knowledge of the Hour, He sends down the rain, and knows that which is in the wombs. (to the end of the Verse).�[31:34]" (Ibn Majah, #4044)

Say: "Truly, my prayer and my service of sacrifice, my life and my death, are (all) for Allah, the Cherisher of the Worlds. (Surat al-Anaam: 162)
