1510. Ismā'il bin Abu Khālid said: "I said to 'Abdullāh bin Abi Awfa: 'Did you see Ibrāhīm, the son of the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ?' He said: 'He died when he was small, and if it had been decreed that there should be any Prophet after Muhammad ﷺ, his son would have lived. But there is no Prophet after him.'" (Sahih) ٤٠
1510 - حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ نُمَيْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بِشْرٍ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ بْنُ أَبِي خَالِدٍ، قَالَ: قُلْتُ لِعَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي أَوْفَى: رَأَيْتَ إِبْرَاهِيمَ ابْنَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «مَاتَ وَهُوَ صَغِيرٌ، وَلَوْ قُضِيَ أَنْ يَكُونَ بَعْدَ مُحَمَّدٍ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - نَبِيٌّ، لَعَاشَ ابْنُهُ، وَلَكِنْ لَا نَبِيَّ بَعْدَهُ»

It indicates that none was granted prophethood after Muhammad, the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ, and none will ever be granted it. Were there a continuation of prophethood in the people of Muhammad ﷺ, then it would be given to his son Ibrāhīm'. When his son had no chance of it, then how was it possible for anyone else!
