Solid Proofs of Muhammad's Prophethood

Guest · #1

Here is a list of HINDU, FARSI, JEWISH, and CHRISTIAN prophecies regarding Prophet Muhammad.Behold! Allah took the covenant of the Prophets saying: "I give you a Book and Wisdom; then comes to you an Apostle confirming what is with you; do ye believe him and render him help." Allah said: "Do ye agree and take this My Covenant as binding on you?" They said: "We agree." He said: "Then bear witness and I am with you among the witnesses." If any turn back after this they are perverted transgressors.God’s Covenant with the Prophets - Holy Quran 3:81-82O ye who believe! Believe in Allah and His messenger and the Scripture which He hath revealed unto His messenger, and the Scripture which He revealed aforetime. Whoso disbelieveth in Allah and His angels and His scriptures and His messengers and the Last Day, he verily hath wandered far astray.Belief in Allah’s Scriptures - Holy Quran 4:163 From the above verse, we clearly see that God sent previous Prophets into the world and later he would send a Prophet confirming all previous revelation. This final Prophet was Prophet Muhammad, the Seal of the Prophets. This paper shows the various prophecies of Prophet Muhammad in Hindu, Parsi, Jewish, and Christian Scriptures.Hindu Prophecies referring to Muhammad The translation of Verses 5-27 (Text of the Puranas, Prati Sarg Parv III: 3, 3) is presented below from the work of Dr. Vidyarthi. “A malechha (belonging to a foreign country and speaking foreign language) spiritual teacher will appear with his companions. His name will be Mahamad. Raja (Bhoj) after giving this Mahadev Arab (of angelic disposition) a bath in the 'Panchgavya' and the Ganges water, (i.e. purging him of all sins) offered him the presents of his sincere devotion and showing him all reverence said, 'I make obeisance to thee.' 'O Ye! the pride of mankind, the dweller in Arabia, Ye have collected a great force to kill the Devil and you yourself have been protected from the malechha opponents (idol worshipers, pagans).' ‘O Ye! the image of the Most Pious God the biggest Lord, I am a slave to thee, take me as one lying on thy feet.' “The Malechhas have spoiled the well-known land of the Arabs. Arya Dharma is not to be found in that country. Before also there appeared a misguided fiend whom I had killed (note: e.g., Abraha Al-Ashram, the Abyssinian viceroy of Yemen, who attacked Mecca); he has now again appeared being sent by a powerful enemy. To show these enemies the right path and to give them guidance the well-known Mahamad (Mohammad), who has been given by me the epithet of Brahma is busy in bringing the Pishachas to the right path. O Raja! You need not go to the land of the foolish Pishachas, you will be purified through my kindness even where you are. At night, he of the angelic disposition, the shrewd man, in the guise of a Pishacha said to Raja Bhoj, "O Raja! Your Arya Dharma has been made to prevail over all religions, but according to the commandments of ‘Ashwar Parmatma (God, Supreme Spirit), I shall enforce the strong creed of the meat-eaters. My follower will be a man circumcised, without a tail (on his head), keeping beard, creating a revolution, announcing call for prayer and will be eating all lawful things. He will eat all sorts of animals except swine. They will not seek purification from the holy shrubs, but will be purified through warfare. Because of their fighting the irreligious nations, they will be known as Musalmans (Muslims). I shall be the originator of this religion of the meat-eating nation." - In the above scripture, we see clear references to Prophet Muhammad. We see mention of a foreigner spiritual teacher whose name will be Mahammad. We also see that this person will be protected from his enemies. This Mahammad is to bring the Arabs on the right path. His people are described as meat eaters that do not eat the swine. Warfare will also be a part of this new nation as they will defeat all their enemies. As it turns out, Prophet Muhammad was born in Arabia and he had many enemies. However, he and the Muslims defeated all these enemies and pagans. It is true that Islam was revealed during a desperate state of war but God’s relgion prevailed. Sama Veda, II:6,8:"Ahmad acquired religious law (Shariah) from his Lord. This religious law is full of wisdom. I receive light from him just as from the sun."Rig Veda V, 27, 1:The wagon-possessor, the truthful and truth-loving, extremely wise, powerful and generous, Mamah [Mohammad] has favored me with his words. The son of the All-powerful, possessing all good attributes, the mercy for the worlds has become famous with ten thousand [companions].- Muhammad and Ahmad are the same name. Muhammad was known as the truthful one as he was the most trusted businessman in Mecca. The Quran describes Muhammad as a “Mercy for all creatures.” Muhammad entered the city of Mecca with ten thousand men, and executed judgement upon the Meccans.Zorastrian Prophecies referring to Muhammad Sasan 1, verses 54-61: When such deeds the Persians will commit, a man from among the Arabs will be born, from among the followers of whom, crown and throne, and kingdom and religion of the Persians all shall be overthrown and dissolute. And the arrogant people shall be subjugated. They will see instead of the house of idols and the temple of fire, the house of worship of Abraham without any idols in it; the Qibla. And they will be a mercy for the worlds and then they will capture places of the temples of fire, Madain or Ctesiphon, and of the surrounding places of eminence and sanctity, and their religious leader will be an eloquent man and his message or what he will say will be well connected. - During the revelation of Islam, there was much idolatry and paganism in Persia. Shortly after, the Muslims entered Persia and made Islam its religion. The Quran describes Muhammad as “a mercy for all creatures. Bible Prophesies referring to Muhammad Solomon 5:16 “Hikko Mamittadim Vikulo Muhamadimm, Zehdudi Vezem Raai Benute Yapus Halam” “His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is MUHAMADIMM. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem.” - King Solomon was singing about Muhammad as in the Hebrew, Muhammad is mentioned by name. Unfortunately, today’s corrupt Bible translators translate the word as meaning “altogether lovely.”John 1:19-21 "And they asked him, and said unto him, Why baptizest thou then, if thou be: a) not that Christ, b) nor Elias, c) neither that prophet?" - The Jews were waiting for THREE DISTINCT PROPHECIES – 1. Elias, 2. Jesus, 3. Muhammad. John the Baptist was asked about these three prophecies. Genesis 49:10 – “The sceptre shall not depart from Judah, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh come; and unto him shall the gathering of the people be.” - Shiloh is derived from the word Shalom meaning Peace. The same goes for the Arabic words Salaam and Islam. This verse basically means that the prophethood will remain in the house of Judah until the coming of Islam.Isaiah 29:11-14 "And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which [men] deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, : and he saith, I cannot; for it [is] sealed: And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, : and he saith, I am not learned.” - Remember when Muhammad was in the cave, and the Angel told him to read and he said he could not read. Habakkuk 3:3 "God (his guidance) came from Teman, and the Holy One from mount Paran. Selah. His glory covered the heavens, and the earth was full of his praise." - Tema is in Medina. Paran is Mecca. Muhammad came from Mecca but it was after he fled to Medina when most of the Quran was revealed. Isaiah 21:7 "And he saw a chariot [with] a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, [and] a chariot of camels .." Isaiah 21:9 "And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, [with] a couple of horsemen. And he answered and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground." - Babylon did fall. It was the Muslim Empire that conquered Babylon and destroyed all those idols. The Muslims were the “chariot of camels”. Isaiah 21:13 "The oracle upon Arabia ..." - Muhammad was the Oracle upon Arabia. Isaiah 21:14-15 "The inhabitants of the land of Tema brought water to him that was thirsty, they prevented with their bread him that fled. For they fled from the swords, from the drawn sword, and from the bent bow, and from the grievousness of war" Isaiah 21:16-17 This is what the Lord says to me: "Within one year, as a servant bound by contract would count it, all the pomp of Kedar will come to an end. The survivors of the bowmen, the warriors of Kedar, will be few." The LORD, the God of Israel, has spoken. - Muhammad and his companions fled from the “drawn sword” of the Meccans. They fled to Tema (which is Medina) and its inhabitants embraced the Prophet. One year after the Hijra, the Muslims defeated the Meccans in the Battle of Badr and “all the pomp of Kedar” came to an end.Isaiah 28:13-1613 But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken. 14 Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem. 15 Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves: 16 Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. The Quran was revealed to Muhammad “line upon line, precept upon precept”. The “tried stone” in Zion “Zion is the Kingdom of God” is the black stone which is in the Kaba. Isaiah 42: 8 "I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not give my glory to another or my praise to idols. 9 See, the former things have taken place, and new things I declare; before they spring into being I announce them to you." 10 Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise from the ends of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that is in it, you islands, and all who live in them. 11 Let the desert and its towns raise their voices; let the settlements where Kedar lives rejoice. Let the people of Sela sing for joy; let them shout from the mountaintops. 12 Let them give glory to the LORD and proclaim his praise in the islands. 13 The LORD will march out like a mighty man, like a warrior he will stir up his zeal; with a shout he will raise the battle cry and will triumph over his enemies. 14 "For a long time I have kept silent, I have been quiet and held myself back. But now, like a woman in childbirth, I cry out, I gasp and pant.” 15 I will lay waste the mountains and hills and dry up all their vegetation; I will turn rivers into islands and dry up the pools. 16 I will lead the blind by ways they have not known, along unfamiliar paths I will guide them; I will turn the darkness into light before them and make the rough places smooth. These are the things I will do; I will not forsake them. 17 But those who trust in idols, who say to images, `You are our gods,' will be turned back in utter shame. 18 "Hear, you deaf; look, you blind, and see! 19 Who is blind but my servant, and deaf like the messenger I send? Who is blind like the one committed to me, blind like the servant of the LORD? - The Quran was the “new song” that praised the Lord. The desert and its towns were the Arabs who raised their voices as they prayed the Muslim prayer. In the early days, the prayer call would be shouted from mountaintops. The LORD did march out like a mighty man. Hazrat Ali was the Muslim warrior who never lost a battle. The Muslims sang the battle cry “God is great” as they won battles against their enemies. All the idol worshippers were condemned and defeated. Isaiah 59:19 From the west, men will fear the name of the LORD, and from the rising of the sun, they will revere his glory. When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the LORD will put him to flight. 20 "The Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who repent of their sins," declares the LORD. 21 "As for me, this is my covenant with them," says the LORD. "My Spirit, who is on you, and my words that I have put in your mouth will not depart from your mouth, or from the mouths of your children, or from the mouths of their descendants from this time on and forever," says the LORD. Muhammad was the “Redeemer” who was being awaited by Jews and Christians. God put his spirit in the mouth of Muhammad and the descendents of Muhammad – the Holy Imams – and this is an everlasting covenant from God. Deuteronomy 18:18 "I (God) will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee (Moses), and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him." - Muhammed was very much a Prophet like Moses. Muhammad came from brethren of the Israelites - who were the children of Ishmael. Muhammad spoke all that God commanded him. Genesis 12:2-3 "And I will make of thee a great nation, and I will bless thee, and make thy name great; and thou shalt be a blessing: And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed." - Islam is the great nation that God promised. All the people of the Earth were blessed by the coming of Muhammad. Isaiah 11:1-2 "And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots: And the spirit of the LORD shall rest upon him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and of the fear of the LORD;" - Jesse is a contraction for the name Ishmael. Muhammad, the direct descendent of Ishmael had the Lord’s spirit with him as he was a prophet.Deuteronomy 33:1 "And this [is] the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. And he said, The LORD came from Sinai (Moses), and rose up from Seir (Jesus) unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran (Muhammad), and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand [went] a fiery law for them."- Muhammad and the Muslims conquered Paran (Mecca) with an army of ten thousand men. Muhammad brought the Islamic law to Paran.Haggai 27 And I will shake all nations, and the desire (AHMAD) of all nations shall come; and I will fill this house with glory,' saith the LORD of hosts. 8 `The silver is Mine, and the gold is Mine,' saith the LORD of hosts. 9 `The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former,' saith the LORD of hosts. `And in this place will I give peace (ISLAM),' saith the LORD of hosts."1 John 4:1-3 "Beloved, believe not every spirit (prophet), but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that [spirit] of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world." - Muhammad did confess that Jesus Christ came in the flesh. Therefore he is a true prophet. Matthew 21:42“Jesus saith unto them, Did ye never read in the scriptures, The stone which the builders rejected, the same is become the head of the corner: this is the Lord's doing, and it is marvelous in our eyes”? Matthew 21:43 “Therefore say I unto you, The kingdom of God shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.” - This rejected stone was none other than Ishmael, the son of Abraham that was rejected by the Israelites. The Kingdom of God was taken from the Israelites (Jews) and given to the Ishmaelites (Muslims). Matthew 8:10 When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. Matthew 8:11 And I say unto you, That many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 8:12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Luke 20:9 He went on to tell the people this parable: "A man planted a vineyard, rented it to some farmers and went away for a long time. Luke 20:10 At harvest time he sent a servant to the tenants so they would give him some of the fruit of the vineyard. But the tenants beat him and sent him away empty-handed. Luke 20:11 He sent another servant, but that one also they beat and treated shamefully and sent away empty-handed. Luke 20:12 He sent still a third, and they wounded him and threw him out. Luke 20:13 "Then the owner of the vineyard said, `What shall I do? I will send my son, whom I love; perhaps they will respect him.' Luke 20:14 "But when the tenants saw him, they talked the matter over. `This is the heir,' they said. `Let's kill him, and the inheritance will be ours.' Luke 20:15 So they threw him out of the vineyard and killed him. "What then will the owner of the vineyard do to them? Luke 20:16 He will come and kill those tenants and give the vineyard to others." When the people heard this, they said, "May this never be!" Luke 20:17 Jesus looked directly at them and asked, "Then what is the meaning of that which is written: "`The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone'? Luke 20:18 Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed."- The Jews kept stoning and abusing the previous Prophets sent to them. Then when Jesus was sent, they tried to kill him. Therefore God took his Kingdom from the Jews and gave it to the Muslims through Muhammad. The rejected stone was Ishmael – progenitor of Muhammad and the Arabs. John 14:16 "And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever" John 14:26 "But the Comforter, the Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you." John 15:26 "But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me" John 16:7-14 "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. And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment: Of sin, because they believe not on me; Of righteousness, because I go to my Father, and ye see me no more; Of judgment, because the prince of this world is judged. 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 into 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: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew [it] unto you." - Muhammed was the Comforter after Jesus. Muhammad testified of Jesus. The Quran glorifies Jesus and tells what he really said. The Quran is the Word of God. There are no words of Muhammad’s in the Quran, only Allah’s.Gospel of Barnabus – The True Gospel of Prophet JesusBarnabas Chapter 39: Then God gave his soul to man, while all the holy angels sang: "Blessed be your holy name, O God our Lord." Adam, having sprung upon his feet, saw in the air a writing that shone like the sun;, which said: "There is only one God, and Muhammad is the Messenger of God.” Whereupon Adam opened his mouth and said: "I thank you, O Lord my God, that you have deigned to create me; but tell me. I pray you, what means the message of these words: "Muhammad is Messenger of God. Have there been other men before me?" 'Then said God: "Be you welcome, O my servant Adam. . I tell you that you are the first man whom I have created. And he whom you have seen [mentioned] is your son, who shall come into the world many years hence, and shall be my Messenger, for whom I have created all things; who shall give light to the world when he shall come; whose soul was set in a celestial splendour ;sixty thousand years before I made any. thing." Adam besought God, saying: "Lord, grant me this writing upon the nails of the fingers of my hands." Then God gave to the first man upon his thumbs that writing; upon the thumb-nail of the right hand it said: "There is only one God;," and upon the thumb-nail of the left it said: "Muhammad is Messenger ;of God." Then with fatherly affection the first man kissed those words, and rubbed his eyes, and said: "Blessed be that day when you shall come to the world.”Barnabus Chapter 40: God hid himself [from Adam and Eve], and the angel Michael drove them forth from paradise. Then, Adam, turning around, saw written above the gate, There is only one God, and Muhammad is Messenger of God. Weeping, he said: 'May it be pleasing to God, O my son, that you come quickly and draw us out of misery.'Barnabus Chapter 43: for so promised God to Abraham, saying: "Behold, in your seed I will bless all the tribes of the earth; and as you have broken in pieces the idols, O Abraham;, even so shall your seed do." James answered: "O master, tell us in whom this promise was made; for the Jews say "in Isaac," and the Ishmaelites say "in Ishmael;." Jesus answered: David, whose son was he, and of what lineage?" James answered: "Of Isaac; for Isaac was father of Jacob, and Jacob was father of Judah, of whose lineage is David." Then Jesus said: "And the Messenger of God when he shall come, of what lineage will he be?" The disciples answered: "Of David." Whereupon Jesus said: "You deceive yourselves; for David in spirit calls him lord, saying thus: God said to my lord, sit you on my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool. God shall send forth your rod which shall have lordship in the midst of your enemies. If the Messenger of God whom you call Messiah were son of David, how should David call him lord? Believe me, for truly I say to you, that the promise was made in Ishmael, not in Isaac."Barnabus 44: I therefore say to you that the Messenger of God is a splendour that shall give gladness to nearly all that God has made, for he is adorned with the spirit of understanding and of counsel, the spirit of wisdom and might, the spirit of fear and love, the spirit of prudence and temperance, he is adorned with the spirit of charity and mercy, the spirit of justice and Piety, the spirit of gentleness and patience, which he has received from God three times more than he has given to all his creatures. O blessed time, when he shall come to the world! Believe me that I have seen him and have done him reverence, even as every prophet has seen him: seeing that of his spirit God gives to them prophecy. And when I saw him my soul was filled with consolation, saying: "O Muhammad;, God be with you, and may he make me worthy to untie, your shoelatchet;, for obtaining this I shall be a great prophet and holy one of God." And having said this, Jesus rendered his thanks to God.Barnabus 112: Whereupon I am sure that he who shall sell me shall be slain in my name, for that God shall take me up from the earth, and shall change the appearance of the traitor so that every one shall believe him to be me; nevertheless, when he dies an evil death, I shall abide in that dishonour for a long time in the world. But when Muhammad shall come, the sacred Messenger of God, that infamy shall be taken away.Barnabas 220: And though I have been innocent in the world, since men have called me "God," and "Son of God," God, in order that I be not mocked of the demons on the day of judgment, has willed that I be mocked of men in this world by the death of Judas;, making all men to believe that I died upon the cross. And this mocking shall continue until the advent of Muhammad;, the Messenger ;of God, who, when he shall come, shall reveal this deception to those who believe in God's Law.Say: “We believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and that which Moses and Jesus received, and that which the prophets received from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered.”Holy Quran 2:136

Nizari/asif khan/hafeezWe Muslims (Can't say that about Nizari's) don't give a 2 hoots what other religions (including yours) say about prophethood of Muhammad SAW. To us he is Khatemun-Nabi (Seal of Prophets).Nobody on this board need any evidence.

43:83 So leave them (alone)to speak nonsense and play until they meet the Day of theirs which they have been promised.My comment:'So leave them (alone)' could very well apply to devient followers of Aga Khan so called Hazir Imaam

And, thus speaketh the wahabis/salafis!The muslim world will not only HEED what the Imam e zamaan / Imam e muslimeen says but ACT upon it as well! There will always be exception and that is fine!The alternative is STATUS QUO or following the leaders like the Taleban, Saudis & Kothars.
