Muhammad (pbuh) prophesised in the book of Deuteronomy:
a) God Almighty 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 will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him."
b) Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is like Moses (pbuh):
i) Both had a father and a mother.
ii) Both were married and had children.
iii) Both were accepted as Prophets by their people in their lifetime.
iv) Both besides being Prophets were also kings i.e. they could inflict capital punishment.
v) Both brought new laws and new regulations for their people.
vi) Both died a natural death.
c) Muhammad (pbuh) is from among the brethren of Moses (pbuh). Arabs are brethren of Jews. Abraham (pbuh) had two sons: Ishmail and Isaac. The Arabs are the descendants of Ishmail (pbuh) and the Jews are the descendants of Isaac (pbuh).
d) Words in the mouth:
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was unlettered and whatever revelations he received from God Almighty he repeated it verbatim.
Deuteronomy (18:18):
"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."
2) 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 Gabriel commanded Muhammad (pbuh) by saying ‘Iqra’, he replied "I am not learned".
3) Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is mentioned by name in the Song of Solomon
chapter 5 verse 16:
"Hikko Mamittakim we kullo Muhammadim Zehdoodeh wa Zehrace Bayna Jerusalem."
"His mouth is most sweet: ye, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughter of Jerusalem."
All the prophecies mentioned in the Old Testament regarding Muhammad (pbuh) besides applying to the Jews also hold good for the Christians (H Q. 61:6).

I'm Jewish. I don't know about any Jewish "quotes" about him, not right off the top of my head at least. But I know we don't believe he was anything besides a false prophet, basically. A charlatan. He led the previously pagan Arabs to a more ethical monotheism , and therefore closer to (what we believe is) Gd's wish for Man to worship Gd and Gd alone, so in that sense he did good. I think his man-made faith is an Arabic imitation of Judaism, basically, and he himself became a big time Jew hater after the Arabian Jews rejected his claims to being a prophet. I think his faith and its followers have been , overall, a "mixed blessing" , at best, for humanity, and the rest of the world in general. Sometimes, like around the fifth annv'y of 9/11 which just passed, it feels like it might even have been something the world could have lived without, as much as I hate to say it.....

Most modern Jews recognise him as prophet, or a teacher.
The Old Testament (Torah) was written thousands of years before Mohamed, so you're unlike to find any quotes there, and the Talmud was a practise guide, not a historical recounting.

Moses prophesied about Hadhrat Muhammad.
In Deuteronomy 18:17-19, Moses prophesied:
"And the Lord said unto me. They have well spoken that which they have spoken, 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. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him."
The foretold prophet in this prophecy was not Jesus Christ, nor any other Israelite prophet, because none of them ever claimed to be the prophet promised here. We read in the Gospel of John (1:19-21) that in the time of Jesus, the Jews were expecting the advent of three prophets. Firstly Elias, secondly Christ, thirdly a prophet of such universal fame that in his case no other specification was thought necessary. "The Prophet" was enough to convey what was meant. Jesus claimed to be the Christ and he regarded John the Baptist as Elias (Matthew 11:14, 17:10-13). Further, he prophesied about his second advent in the last days when true faith would disappear from the earth (Luke 18:8).

Muhammed is not a prophet so the question is moot.

Do they believe that he existed or do they believe he was a prophet? I'll bet yes and no

They acknowledge that he lived, just as they acknowledge that Jesus lived. They do not consider him a prophet, any more than they consider Jesus the Messiah.

If they don't they should because I think he existed as a historical figure. It's good to know history.
