Muhammad (pbuh) Prophecised In The Bible

Muhammad (PBUH) Prophesised In The Bible

Book of Deuteronomy chapter 18 verse 18: 'I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.' If you ask the Christian that who does this prophecy refer to, he will say it refers to Jesus (PBUH) and to prove this he will say that since Moses (PBUH) was a prophet, even Jesus (PBUH) was a prophet. Since Moses (PBUH) was a Jew, even Jesus (PBUH) was Jew. So this prophecy speaks to no one but Jesus (PBUH). The prophecy says that this person should be like Moses (PBUH). If these two are the only criteria, being a prophet and Jew, then all of the Prophets mentioned in the bible after prophet Moses (PBUH) e.g. azikeen, Isaiah, Daniel etc may peace be upon them all. All these prophets fulfil the prophecy because they were Jewish and all of them were prophets of God Almighty. In fact if you analyse, this prophecy fits to no one better than our beloved prophet Muhammad (PBUH) because prophet Moses (PBUH) and prophet Muhammad (PBUH) both had a mother and a father. Prophet Jesus (PBUH) was born miraculously without any male intervention. He only had a mother, no father. So prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is more like Moses (PBUH) and Jesus (PBUH) is unlike Moses (PBUH). Both Moses and Muhammad (PBUH) were married and had children. According to the bible, Jesus wasn't married; neither did he have any children. Both Muhammad and Moses (PBUH) passed away naturally. Jesus (PBUH) according to the holy Quran was raised up alive, and according to the bible, Jesus (PBUH) was crucified upon the cross. He did not die a natural death. Both Moses and Muhammad (PBUH) brought new laws. Jesus (PBUH) brought no new laws. It’s mentioned in the gospel of Mathew chapter 5 verse 17: 'Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.' So according to the bible, Jesus (PBUH) says that he brought no new laws. Moses and Muhammad (PBUT) both, besides being prophets of God Almighty, were even worldly kings. Worldly kings mean that if they wanted they could give any other human being the punishment of death. They were worldly kings. This was not the case for Jesus (PBUH). Both Moses and Muhammad (PBUH) were accepted by their people as a whole. But Jesus (PBUH), it’s mentioned in the gospel of john that he approached his own and his own forsake him. That means his own did not accept him. So if you analyse prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is more like Moses (PBUH) and Jesus (PBUH) is unlike Moses (PBUH). This prophecy speaks to no one but our beloved prophet Muhammad (PBUH). It further says that 'I will put my words into his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.' And we know that the Holy Quran was a revelation given to prophet Muhammad (PBUH) through the angel Gabriel. And

whatever was revealed to him he repeated it verbatim as though words were put into his mouth. And the next verse of the book of Deuteronomy chapter 18 verse 19 says 'If anyone does not hearken unto my words which he will speak in my name, I shall require it of him.' One particular version says 'I will take revenge' that means any person who believes in the bible, who does not hearken the words of this prophet Muhammad (PBUH) God almighty will take revenge from him.

It’s further mentioned in the book of Isaiah chapter 29 verse 12 'And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned.' And we know that when the first revelation came to our beloved prophet Muhammad (PBUH), the angel Gabriel said ‘Icra’ read, and the prophet replied I am not learned. This prophecy again speaks to no one but our beloved prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

In the Book of Solomon chapter 5 verse 16 ‘His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.’ Even the name of Prophet Muhammad is mentioned by name in the Bible. The Hebrew quotation of this is "Hikko Mamittakim we kuly Muhammadim Zehdoodeh wa Zehraee Bayna Jerusalem. "It is referred to Muhammadim because in the Hebrew language as a way of respect 'im' is added. So in the original Hebrew text of the Old Testament book of Solomon chapter 5 verse 16 our beloved prophet is mentioned by name. The translation says that 'he is most sweet, he's altogether lovely'. The Hebrew word Muhammadim has been translated to 'altogether lovely' but in the original text the word Muhammadim is there. Let’s discuss some more prophecies in the Christian scriptures, all prophecies that are mentioned in the Old Testament in the bible are also to be followed by the Christians in addition to the old testament, they also believe in the new testament. The Holy Quran says in Surah As-Saff chapter 61 verse 5 that ' Jesus (PBUH), the son of Mary, was sent as a messenger to the children of Israel' the bany Israel. 'Confirming the law that came before them and giving glad tidings of a prophet to come, whose name shall be Ahmed (PBUH)’ Surah As-Saff chapter 61 verse 6 says that prophet Muhammad (PBUH) or Ahmed (PBUH) is prophesised in the scriptures of the Christians.

Besides being mentioned in the Old Testament he's also prophesised in the New Testament.

It’s mentioned in the Gospel of John chapter 14 verse 16: That Jesus (PBUH) says, 'I shall pray to my father (God almighty), to send you another comforter, who will abide with you forever.' The Gospel of John chapter 15 verse 26 says: 'When this comforter will come to you, who will be sent by my father, he will glorify me, he will testify me.' its further mentioned in the Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 7: 'Nevertheless I will tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if i go not away the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.' If you analyse, in the original Greek manuscript the word used is parakletos, it’s actually a corrupted form of the word Periclytos, if translated means the praise worthy or the praising one. When you translate to Arabic it means 'Ahmed' or ‘Muhammad (PBUH)'. So in the original Greek the word parakletos or periclytos means Ahmed o Muhammad (PBUH). Even if you agree that it is not parakletos and is periclytos, the exact translation is not comforter it means an advocate or a friend. But irrespective whether they are Christian or theist, whether it is parakletos or pariclytos, whether it is praise worthy or praising one, or kind one or comforter or advocate; Alhamdulillah all these meanings fit to our beloved prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The Christian may say that 'this comforter, which the bible refers too, is the Holy Spirit; it does not refer to prophet Muhammad (PBUH). So we have to remind them that the prophecy says in the Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 7 that 'Nevertheless I will tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if i go not away the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.' That means that the criteria for the comforter to come is that prophet Jesus(PBUH) should go away, and the holy spirit which the Christian speak about was already there before Jesus (PBUH) came. It was present in the womb of Elizabeth. It was there when Jesus (PBUH) was being baptised. So surely it cannot refer to the Holy Spirit, and it only refers to Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).

It’s further mentioned in the Gospel of john chapter 16:12-14 'I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. For he when the spirit of truth shall come, he shall guide you onto all truth: he shall tell you of things to come, he shall glorify me.'

This spirit of truth which the bible speaks about is no one but our beloved prophet Muhammad (PBUH). The prophecy of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is very clearly given, even in the New Testament. And the Holy Quran says in Surah Al-Ahqaf chapter 46 verse 10: 'Tell to the people that see you not that this is a book from Allah (SWT) and you reject it, even after a witness from amongst you testifies to its similarities to the early scriptures; he was a believer, but you are arrogant and Allah guides not the unjust people.' The Holy Quran says that don’t you see that this is a book from God Almighty, the Holy Quran. And you Non-Muslims who reject it, whether it be the Hindus, whether it be the pathis, whether it be the Buddhists, whether it be the Jews, whether it be the Christians; it says that this book is from Allah (SWT) and a witness from amongst you has already testified to the similarities about the prophecies of our beloved prophet Muhammad (PBUH) and you reject it. The witness from amongst you was a believer and you are arrogant people, you are unjust. And Allah guide not the unjust people
