Both a Prophet and a saint have faith, but their relationship to the source of faith differs.
The Prophet's faith is original, whereas the saint's is derived. The Prophet receives revelation and bears the office of prophethood; a saint follows prophetic guidance in belief and conduct.
The original is superior to what is derived; thus one Prophet is higher in rank than all saints.
