PROPHET MUHAMMAD (pbuh)
IN THE BIBLE

by

Dr. Zakir Naik

Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the Old Testament:


The Qur’an mentions in Surah Al-Araf chapter 7 verse 157:

"Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (scriptures) in the law and the Gospel".

1.
MUHAMMAD (PBUH) PROPHESISED IN THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY:



Almighty God speaks to Moses in Book of Deuteronomy chapter 18 verse 18:

"I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and I will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him."

The Christians say that this prophecy refers to Jesus (pbuh) because Jesus (pbuh) was like Moses (pbuh). Moses (pbuh) was a Jew, as well as Jesus (pbuh) was a Jew. Moses (pbuh) was a Prophet and Jesus (pbuh) was also a Prophet.

If these two are the only criteria for this prophecy to be fulfilled, then all the Prophets of the Bible who came after
Moses (pbuh) such as Solomon, Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Malachi, John the Baptist, etc. (pbut) will
fulfill this prophecy since all were Jews as well as prophets.

However, it is Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who is like Moses (pbuh):

i)


Both had a father and a mother, while Jesus (pbuh) was born miraculously without any male intervention.

[Mathew 1:18 and Luke 1:35 and also Al-Qur'an 3:42-47]

ii)
Both were married and had children. Jesus (pbuh) according to the Bible did not marry nor had children.

iii)
Both died natural deaths. Jesus (pbuh) has been raised up alive. (4:157-158)



Muhammad (pbuh) is from among the brethren of Moses (pbuh). Arabs are brethren of Jews. Abraham (pbuh) had two sons: Ishmail and Isaac (pbut). The Arabs are the descendants of Ishmail (pbuh) and the Jews are the descendants of Isaac (pbuh).

Words in the mouth:

Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was unlettered and whatever revelations he received from Almighty God he repeated them verbatim.

"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."

[Deuteronomy 18:18]

iv)
Both besides being Prophets were also kings i.e. they could inflict capital punishment. Jesus (pbuh) said, "My kingdom is not of this world." (John 18:36).

v)
Both were accepted as Prophets by their people in their lifetime but Jesus (pbuh) was rejected by his
people. John chapter 1 verse 11 states, "He came unto his own, but his own received him not."

iv)
Both brought new laws and new regulations for their people. Jesus (pbuh) according to the Bible did not bring any new laws. (Mathew 5:17-18).

2.
It is Mentioned in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 18:19



"And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not harken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him."

3.
Muhammad (pbuh) is prophesised in the book of Isaiah:



It is 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."

When Archangel Gabrail commanded Muhammad (pbuh) by saying Iqra - "Read", he replied, "I am not learned".

4.
prophet Muhammad (pbuh) mentioned by name in the old testament:



Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is mentioned by name in the Song of Solomon chapter 5 verse 16:

"Hikko Mamittakim we kullo Muhammadim Zehdoodeh wa Zehraee Bayna Jerusalem."

"His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters
of Jerusalem."

In the Hebrew language im is added for respect. Similarely im is added after the name of Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) to make it Muhammadim. In English translation they have even translated the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as "altogether lovely", but in the Old Testament in Hebrew, the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is yet present.


Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the New Testament:

Al-Qur'an Chapter 61 Verse 6:

"And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said, 'O Children of Israel! I am the messenger of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which came) before me and giving glad tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmed.' But when he came to them with clear signs, they said, 'This is evident sorcery!' "

All the prophecies mentioned in the Old Testament regarding Muhammad (pbuh) besides applying to the Jews also hold good for the Christians.

1.
John chapter 14 verse 16:
"And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you forever."

2.
Gospel of John chapter 15 verse 26:

"But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which
proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me."

3.
Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 7:



"Nevertheless I 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".

"Ahmed" or "Muhammad" meaning "the one who praises" or "the praised one" is almost the translation of the
Greek word Periclytos. In the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, and 16:7. The word 'Comforter' is used in the English translation for the Greek word Paracletos which means advocate or a kind friend rather than a comforter.
Paracletos is the warped reading for Periclytos. Jesus (pbuh) actually prophesised Ahmed by name. Even the
Greek word Paraclete refers to the Prophet (pbuh) who is a mercy for all creatures.

Some Christians say that the Comforter mentioned in these prophecies refers to the Holy Sprit. They fail to realise
that the prophecy clearly says that only if Jesus (pbuh) departs will the Comforter come. The Bible states that the
Holy Spirit was already present on earth before and during the time of Jesus (pbuh), in the womb of Elizabeth, and again when Jesus (pbuh) was being baptised, etc. Hence this prophecy refers to none other than Prophet
Muhammad (pbuh).

4.
Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 12-14:

"I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth is
come, he will guide you unto all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. He shall glorify me".

The Sprit of Truth, spoken about in this prophecy referes to none other than Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)

NOTE: All quotations of the Bible are taken from the King James Version.

A friend went and purchased a new car from a major dealership. The car was purchased after 5pm, all papers were signed, and he left. After a couple of days, the dealership called saying that they couldn't get the loan to go through with any lender and they want the car back. Can they legally retake the car after all the contracts were signed? My friend has already taken out full coverage insurance on the car. Any help will be appreciated.

George Orwell’s 1984 reassures us that as long as other biological life forms, such as plants or animals, can penetrate through the iron bars of humankind’s societies, there will always be a potential catalyst for rebellion by human’s comparison of the supposed “freedom” of nature to their own lifestyle.
Orwell often uses animals to his symbolize characters’ situations. When Winston and Julia heard the beautiful song of a thrush in the country, Winston started to wonder, “For whom, for what, was that bird singing?...What made it sit on the edge of the lonely wood and pour its music into nothingness?” (124). The bird parallels Winston and Julia: two rebels protesting to no one but themselves and aware that the idea they preach will continue even after they die. Winston evaluates and compares his situation to the bird’s as if it were human.

Christans, I think asking questions is how we learn, but we should not be rude or hate full do you?
I have seen "so called " christians be rude and hateful to atheist, thats terrible they are our fellow man. and it boils my blood, I resent them giving christanty a bad name. I'm a Christan and I will not ever do that.

and I have seen atheist or one who "claim" to be atheist be rude and hateful also.

PPL. have a free will to believe what they choose even if we don't agree.
But when asked I will give my opinon. but it's just my opinon.
many question I don't agree with some I do, but to be rude or hateful in giving answers is wrong.
lets stick to the answer and not vent.
this site is suppose to be fun and helpful.

what do you think?

Find it so hard to accept groups liek the KKK, and people like Hitler are of their ranks? I usually see it boil down to them going over and saying, "X is/was not a real Christian."

Who defines what a real Christian is? Is there an exam they had to take beforehand, and only real Christians know the grades?

Do they not realize their faith has one of the bloodiest track records in history? Or were those CHRISTIAN LEADERS, also not Christians?

My husband and I have been together for seven years and It seems like every year I find out about a lie that he has told me when we first meet. Why do men feel as though they have to lie? I wouldn't get mad if he just told the truth however, I'm pissed off when I have to find out the truth. Example: He told me that his Ex-wife lives north of town and come to find out she live's east of town. I really don't give a crap where she lives. Why couldn't he of just told the truth?

A girl in one of my moms groups just asked how much she should tip the painters. She said that they are done for the day and she wants to know how much she should tip them. I say if you're paying a company hundreds of dollars to have them paint the outside of your house you shouldn't have to tip them. I mean do we tip everybody . . . the company that put up my backyard fence? The guys that put on the new roof? The guys that come once a week from the landscaping company to cut my grass?

Who do you tip, and where should we draw the line??
