Quran says – “Follow the messenger (Muhammad) …. Whom they will find described in the Torah and the Gospel (which are) with them’’

Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) was commanded by God to inform that he was not the only Messenger of God to the world [ref Quran 46:9]. Scholars say that there had been some 124,000 Prophets sent to the world who preached in the language of the respective people [ref Quran 14:4].

The true religion they preached and their scriptures got corrupted with passage of time (with the exception of Al Quran). However, the message on the last and greatest Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) is retained till date in the scriptures of all major world religions.

The Quran mentions in 7:157:   Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find written in what they have of the Torah and the Gospel,…

The scriptures also give faithful descriptions of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). The revelation of the Quran and the Prophethood of Muhammad (peace be upon him) are signs and guidance from God           for mankind as a whole. In the Quran, God Almighty constantly refers to Muhammad in universal terms: ‘‘The Seal of the Prophethood,’’ ‘‘Mercy to all the Worlds,’’ ‘‘Beginner of Glad Tidings’’ and a ‘‘Messenger of God.’’

If we compare the teachings of Muhammad (peace be upon him) with those of other Prophetic faiths—Judaism, Christianity and Zoroastrianism, we see commonality. However, as Muhammad (peace be upon him) was to be the last Prophet, it would only seem natural that he should be universal. It is because this—that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is God’s instrument of guidance for the world—that he has been mentioned in many of the previous revelations.

Incidentally, we find that in these scriptures statements implying plurality ofGod have been interpolated causing confusion with Monotheistic concept that is La ilaha il Allah in Arabic). But the statements amounting to Apostleship of Muhammad (peace be upon him) “Muhammadur Rasoolullah” is miraculously left intact in all major faiths.

Christian & Jewish Scriptures:

Very few people know about the relationship between Christianity, Judaism and Islam. Jews of Jesus time did not believe in Jesus, and instead followed all the teachings of Moses and denied Jesus…why?…because Jesus came after Moses. Similarly Christians and Jews both did not believe in Muhammad as he came after Jesus and Moses (peace be upon them all).

A Muslim’s belief is incomplete if he does not love and believe Jesus and Moses. And should accept the fact that Muhammad (peace be upon him) is the last prophet ‘‘the Seal of the Prophets’’. Bible (similar to Quran) speaks about all the Prophets from Adam to Jonah to

Abraham to Joseph to Moses etc, and even about the coming of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

According to the Bible, God said to Moses (peace be upon him),:

“I will raise up for them a Prophet like you from among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him.”

(The Holy Bible, New International Version, Deuteronomy chapter 18, verse 18)

The Prophet described in the above verse must have the following three characteristics:

1. He will be like Moses.
2. He will come from the brothers of the Israelites, i.e. the Ishmaelites.
3. God will put His words in the mouth of that Prophet and he will declare what God commanded him.

Let us see which Prophet God was speaking of.

1. The Prophet like Moses (peace be upon him)

Some people feel that this prophecy refers to the Prophet Jesus, on whom be peace. But, although Jesus(peace be upon him) was truly a Prophet of God, he is not the Prophet spoken of here. He was born miraculously, and, finally, God raised him up miraculously. On the other hand, Muhammad (peace be upon him) is more like Moses (peace be upon him); both were born in a natural way and both died natural deaths.

2. From among the Ishmaelites

Abraham (peace be upon him) had two sons, Ishmael (peace be upon him) and Isaac (peace be upon him) (Genesis, chapter 21). Ishmael (peace be upon him) became the grandfather of the Arab nation, and Isaac became the grandfather of the Jewish nation. The Prophet spoken of was to come not from among the Jews themselves, but from among their brothers, the Ishmaelites. Muhammad (peace be upon him), a descendant of Ishmael (peace be upon him), is indeed that prophet.

3. God will put his words in his mouth

“Neither the content of the revelation, nor its form, were of Mohammed’s devising. Both were given by the angel, and Mohammed’s task was only to repeat what he heard.”

(World Religions from Ancient History to the Present, by Geoffrey Parrinder, p. 472)

God sent the angel Gabriel (peace be upon him) to teach Muhammad (peace be upon him) the exact words that he should repeat to the people. The words are therefore not his own; they did not come from his own thoughts, but were put into his mouth by the angel. These are written down in the Quran, word for word exactly as they came from God.

Now that we know that Prophet, we must listen to him, for, according to the Bible, God says: “I will punish anyone who refuses to obey him”

(Good News Bible, Deut. 18:19)

Was he Solomon, Jesus or Muhammad (peace be upon them all)?

Muhammad’s (peace be upon him) name appeared in Haggai 2:7 under the hebrew word mahmad ( ) which means praised one (Muhammad is Arabic for praised one). It almost undoubtedly is referring to the Arabic Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him).

Throughout the chapter, someone is being discussed. Whomever it is, verse 15 says his ‘‘countenance (face) is as Lebanon’’, so this is an Arabic gentleman (or Arab looking), a Semetic man none the less. Verse 11 says ‘‘his head is as the most fine gold, his locks are wavy, and black as a raven’’. Verse 10 describes this man as being ‘‘radiant and ruddy’’ which means he was slightly light-skinned with a rosy colour.

This can be confirmed in the Sahih Bukhari Hadiths, Volume 4, Book 56, Number 747, which says Muhammad (peace be upon him) was slightly light skinned, with a rosy colour (and also has the same hair as is mentioned in verse 11). Also verse 14 describes this man as having a stomach like ivory. we can take it this means the parts of his body that were usually covered by his garment from the sun, were very white (like ivory). This also can be attributed to Muhammad (peace be upon him) who although having a rosy, golden colour, had white armpits (Sahih Bukhari, Volume 2, Book 17, Number 141 says you could see the whites of his armpit when he raised his hand).

What’s the Point?!?!

Discussing skin colour, and hair colour is fruitless, and if we were basing it solely on that, it could be describing ANY semetic man. However, this person’s name is given. In reading the english translation of Songs 5:16 it finishes the description by saying ‘‘He is altogether lovely’’. The words ‘‘altogether lovely’’ was translated from mahmad (). We’ll take a closer look at this four character word, and prove this is talking about Muhammad (peace be upon him)…

First of all, the way this word is written in Hebrew is

 That happens to be the EXACT same as Muhammad’s (peace be upon him) name is written in Hebrew. Let’s look at the spelling of this word…

It has four characters. Going from right to left they are…

Now, when writing in Hebrew, there is no difference between the word mahmad ( ) and Muhammad ( ). The only difference is in the vowels used when pronouncing this word ( ). Hebrew is an ancient language, and there are no vowels. It is made up of 22 consonants. In ancient times, the reader decided on his own which vowels to add in.

It was not until the 8th century that vowels were introduced, in the form of dots and lines. However, this has nothing to do with real hebrew.

 The word mahmad ( ) in ancient times would most likely have been pronounced ‘‘mahamad’’.

According to Ben Yehuda’s Hebrew-English Dictionary, is correctly pronounced ‘‘mahamad’’ (not mahmad) which is

very close to Muhammad(peace be upon him).

Ben  Yehuda’s Hebrew-English Dictionary defines ‘‘            ’’          as

‘‘lovely, coveted one, precious one, praised one’’. The correct way to say ‘‘praised one’’ in Arabic is Muhammad, so this is the same word!

As  was  stated before, the  name  Muhammad  ()  and  the  word mahmad () are spelled exactly the same way in hebrew, and both have the same meaning. The only reason they are pronounced different is because of vowels (dots and lines) introduced in the eighth century.

The Hebrew word for praised one is

The Hebrew word for Muhammad (the Arabic Prophet) is

The Arabic word for Muhammad is

In conclusion, if Songs of Solomon chapter 5 is discussing a man to come after that time, he is without a doubt Muhammad (peace be upon him), as it even mentions his name. Any Christian who believes Jesus is the Messiah, and believes that the books were sent down by God after the TaNaKh (old testament), then surely they should take into account what they just read here, and consider the Quran before making a decision.

Jesus promises the coming of the “Parqaleeta” – who will come after him

Up to the time of Jesus (peace be upon him), the Israelites were still awaiting that prophet like unto Moses prophesied in Deuteronomy 18:18. When John the Baptist came, they asked him if he was Christ and he said “no”. Then they asked him if he was Elias and he said ‘‘no’’. Then in apparent reference to Deuteronomy 18:18, they asked him ‘‘Art thou that Prophet?’’ and he answered ‘‘no’’(John 1:19-21).

In the Gospel, according to John (Chapters 14, 15, 16) Jesus spoke of the ‘Parqaleeta’ or comforter who will come after him, who will be sent by Father as another ‘Parqaleeta’, who will teach new things that the contemporaries of Jesus could not bear.

‘‘If you love me, keep my commandments. And I will pray the Father and He shall give you another Comforter that he may abide with you forever.’’ (John 14:15-16)

‘‘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: And ye also shall bear witness, because ye have been with me from the beginning.’’ (John 15:26-27)

‘‘But now I go my way to Him that sent me and none of you asketh me ‘Whither goest thou?’ But because I have said these things unto you, sorrow hath filled your heart. Nevertheless I tell you the truth; 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 approve righteousness and judgment.’’ (John 16:5-8)

‘‘I have yet many things to say unto you, but you cannot bear them now. How be it 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 he shall shew it unto you.’’ (John 16:12-14)

‘‘A little while and ye shall not see me: and again a little while, ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.’’ (John 16:16)

Who is the “Parqaleeta” Comforter

Indeed history tells us that may early Christians understood the ‘Parqaleeta’ to be a man and not a spirit, This might explain the following who responded to someone who claimed, without meeting the criteria stipulated by Jesus , to be the awaited ‘Parqaleeta’.

Jesus, peace be upon him, spoke the Gospel in his native language which is Aramaic. The earliest translations were in Greek. It is very interesting that the Greek word which was eventually translated into English as ‘‘Comforter’’ (Helper) is ‘Parqaleeta’.

While the ‘Parqaleeta’ is described as the spirit of truth, he is identified as the Holy Ghost, such a designation is however inconsistent with the profile of that ‘Parqaleeta’. In the words of the Dictionary of the Bible (Ed. J. Mackenzie) ‘‘Those items, it must be admitted do not give an entirely cohesive picture.’’

What is even more fascinating is the fact that the name Muhammad (peace be upon him) has exactly the same meaning as ‘Parqaleeta’ ‘‘one whom people praise exceedingly!’’

Muslim theologians have said that ‘‘another Comforter’’ is Muhammad (peace be upon him), the Messenger of Allah; and him to ‘‘abide forever’’ means the perpetuity of his laws and way of life (Sharia’) and the Book (Quran) which was revealed to him.

Another important aspect to consider is that – Islam is the only religion and Muhammad (peace be upon him) the only Prophet – to have glorified Jesus Christ (peace be upon him), and to have reminded the people of the teachings of Jesus (peace be upon him) – fulfilling the greater meaning of the word “Parqaleeta”.

Present day Christianity, unfortunately is less to do with what Jesus (peace be upon him) preached and practiced but rather is filled with what St.Paul preached and practiced – so much so that many scholars have told – present day “so called christian faith” is more “Paul-ianity” than “Christ-ianity”.

It was Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) who was the ‘Parqaleeta’, Comforter, helper, admonisher, sent by God after Jesus (peace be upon him). He testified of Jesus (peace be upon him), taught new things that could not be borne at Jesus’ time, he spoke what he heard (revelation), he dwells with the believers (through his well-preserved teachings).

Such teachings will remain forever because he was the last messenger of God, the only Universal Messenger to unite the whole of humanity under God and on the path of

PRESERVED truth. He told of many things to come which ‘‘came to pass’’ in the minutest detail meeting the criterion given by Moses to distinguish between true and false prophets (Deuteronomy 18:22). He did reprove the world of sin, of righteousness and of judgment. (John 16:8-11)

Buddhist Scriptures:

Buddhism is older than Christianity. It originated in India but is prevalent in entire South Asia and far East. Gautama Buddha, its founder is supposed to be an agnostic but this is disputed. The word Buddha means enlightened. Scriptures of Buddhism are available in Sanskrit, Pali, Sinhalese, Burmese, Chinese, Tibetan and Japanese languages. We could get the following information collectively from them;

At his death bed his grief-stricken disciples asked him who will provide them guidance after him.

The Buddha consoled them by saying;

• “Do not think I am the only Buddha. There had been many before me and will be many after me. (Compare this with the Quranic Verse 26:9

“say (O Muhammad): I am no new thing among Messengers (of Allah. ). At appropriate time a great Buddha will come.”

• He will be born in a country to west (and not in India). Remember that Arabia is in the west of India.
• He will migrate from his homeland.
• He will look at the Universe face to face. (Compare this with Mi’raj).
• His countrymen cannot be reformed until his advent.
• He will preach the same religion as mine but its perfection and success will reach peak stage only in his time (Compare this with the Quranic Verse 5:3 “….. I have perfected your religion for you. and have chosen Al Islam for you as religion. ’’).
• While my disciples are in hundreds, his will be in thousands. (Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him had thousands of disciples called companions)
• The Chief disciple Ananda asked him how to identify the great

Buddha when he eventually comes. Gautama told them,“His name will be Maitreya.”

The word maitreya means love, kindness, compassion, mercy, and so on. The Arabic for mercy is rahmat. Rahmat is title given to the Sayyidul Mursaleen e Leader of Prophets, by Allah in Quran ! Allah refers to him as;

• Rahmatan lil Alameen – Mercy unto the worlds (ref Quran 21:07)
• Rahshatun lilladeena amanu minkum – Mercy unto the believers (ref Quran 9:61)
• Rahmatan min Rabbika – Mercy from thy Lord (ref Quran 28:46)

The hindu Scriptures:

The  Hindu  religion  is  the  predominant  religion  in  India  It  is  a polytheistic religion founded upon three main scriptures—the

Vedas, the Upanishads,  and  the Puranas.  The  last  of  these,  the Puranas, are the most widely read and easily found       of the three sacred  writs.  The  Puranas  also  appear to be the most authentic because their sanctity is attested to by the  highly revered  Vedas  (which means they must be more ancient than the Vedas).

The Penguin Dictionary of Religions states that the Puranas ‘‘form part of the real scriptures of the Hindus, in the sense that they have been available to and known by low-caste people whereas the Veda texts were the preserve of the Brahmans.’’

We find in Prati Sarg Parv of Bhavisha Purana (a book from the Puranas), the following passage:

This prophecy indicates the following points:

A ‘‘malechha’’ [belongs to a foreign country and speaking a foreign language] spiritual teacher will appear with his companions. His name will be Muhammad. ‘‘Raga’’ after giving this ‘‘Maha Dev Arab’’ [Arab of Angelic character] a bath in the Panchgavya and the Ganges water [and thus purging his 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’s’’ opponents.’ ‘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.’ (Prati Sarg Parv III: 3, 3.5-8)

1. The name of the Prophet is clearly stated as Muhammad(peace be upon him).
2. He is said to be from Arabia. The Sanskrit word “marusthal” used in the Prophecy means a sandy tract of land or desert.
3. Special mention is made of the companions of the Prophet.
4. Indeed, hiscompanions reflected many of the qualities he himself had.
5. He will be immune from sins, having an angelic character.
6. The Raja of India will treat him with honor and deference.
7. The Prophet will be granted protection from his enemies.
8. He will kill the Devil, root out idol-worship and will do away with all sorts of vices.
9. The Maharishi claims to be lying at his feet.
10. He is regarded as the “pride of mankind” (Parabatis Nath)

Kalki Puran

This is a holy book of Hindus describing the advent of the last, the tenth Avtar to come. An Avatar is considered an incarnation of God, who appears on earth whenever religion declines and evil abounds, and corrects the situation. He is of high character and miraculous powers but subject to predestination and morality. If the term ‘human representative of God’ is substituted for ‘incarnation of God’ this description will fit the Islamic concept of Prophet (peace be upon him). The signs and events of the final Avatar Kalki point out to final Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him). They fit those of Muhammad (peace be upon him) neatly and perfectly.

They are as follows;

• Kalki will appear in the last on Kali Yug and will be the guide for the entire world.
• He will be born on the 12th day of the month. (Prophet (peace be upon him) was born on 12th Of Rabiyyul Awwal).

God (the Cherisher) and peace. (Messenger’s (peace be upon him) father’s name was Abdullah, God’s servant and mother was Amina refuge giver which includes the idea of ‘peace’.)

• He will be with a beauty par-excellence. His body will be fragrant.
• He will get wisdom on a mountain. (Messenger (peace be upon him) was conferred Prophethood on Mt.Hira)
• He will receive a horse from God, which will be faster than lightning. Riding it he will go around the earth and seven skies. (During Mi’raj Prophet (peace be upon him) got Buraq meaning lightning and toured the entire universe.)

Kalki will split the moon. Like Bhoj, Cheraman (Zamorin) Perumal the ruler of Indian kingdom of Kerala, witnessed splitting of the moon performed by Prophet (peace be upon him). After gathering the facts he sailed to Arabia and became Muslim at Prophet’s (peace be upon him)hand. His Tomb is near the city of Salala in Oman.

The word ‘Kalki is considered to be a basic word, a noun without a meaning, as against attribute – based or action – based ones. The preceding Hindu Books either give attribute based name in sanskrit to the Last Prophet (peace be upon him) or Arabic name, which is also attribute based. The author thinks that ‘Kalki’ is the Sanskrit transliteration of the Arabic ‘Khalqi’ meaning creation (concrete noun). He is celebrated by Muslims as being;

• Awwal ul Khalki – First of creations, (2) Khair il Khalki – Best of creations,
• Awf al Khalki – Foremost out of creations, (4) Akram al Khalki – Greatest of creations.

The Parsi – Zoroastrian Scripture:

Zoroastrianism, the common religion of ancient Persia is also known as Parsi- ism, Magainism, and Fire-worship. The religion itself finds its origins with the Prophet Zoroaster (Greek form of Zarathushtra) of whom little is known. Zoroastrians has been commonly described as a dualistic religion, with two principal gods—Ahura Mazda, the god of wisdom and goodness, and his adversary Angra Mainyu, the god of evil and wickedness.

Additionally, there are six minor deities associated with Ahura Mazda who are manifestations of his various qualities. Research into the religion and early texts have discerned the true nature of the religion. Far from a dualistic or polytheistic tradition, Zoroastrianism, in its original form, can only be considered monotheistic. Farhang Mehr, a Zoroastrian, describes his religion in The Zoroastrian Tradition:

Believing in the basic tenets of monotheistic religions–the transcendence and eternity of the creator, revelation, God’s message, and life after death with reward and punishment—Zoroastrianism must be classified as a monotheistic religion.

The Zoroastrian holy scriptures have changed over time. The Gathas were the original revelation, which Zoroaster delivered to his people.

Only 5 books have survived. The scripture was first written in Gathic; a dead language which is reserved for few scholars only. Later Priests would add to the Gathas, in the Avestan language, to make up the rest of the Zoroastrian holy book, now known as the Avesta (or Zend Avesta). This book was translated by the conquering Sasanids into the Pahlavi tongue. What survives today is estimated to be only a quarter of the original 21 books of the Avesta.

The excerpt displayed here is from a portion of the Avesta known as the Dadistan. The prophecy specifically contained in 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.”

The ‘‘sum and substance’’ of the prophecy can be stated that when the Zoroastrians forsake their religion and their deeds become unprincipled in ignorance, a man will arise in Arabia (a

prophet), whose adherents will conquer the arrogant Persians and overrule them. They will turn from idolatry and fire-worship to worship at the House of God, the Ka’ba of Abraham, which will be cleansed of all idols.

The followers of this Arabian Prophet will be a “mercy onto the world.” This is also the title given to Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in the Quran. The cohorts of this Arab Prophet will become the masters of Persia, Madian, Tus, Balkh, and neighboring territories. Their Prophet will be eloquent in speech and his message will be clear and logical (well connected).

Conclusion

We can see that the scriptures refer to the Ultimate Prophet (peace be upon him), ultimate both in time and greatness, in clear, direct terms. No stretches of imagination, playing with words and linguistic nuances or involved, artificial interpretations are needed to grasp the point. No complicated inductive or deductive logic is required for drawing the conclusion.

On the other hand, the facts are recorded in a straightforward manner and are available for all to verify. No hearsay need be believed uncomfortably. The plain truth is inescapably evident that it is Muhammad (peace be upon him), the chosen one (Mustafa) to be the greatest of Prophets for all people of the world and awaited by all of them since time immemorial.

We have presented here some interesting information from these Books so that adherents to these religions (as also Muslims) come to know that the Messenger (peace be upon him) is not alien to them, get rid of unfounded prejudices against Islam and the Messenger (peace be upon him) and that they may take interest in the scripture and religion he brought. The reason is that Islam as given to him is the true religion of the world brought to ultimate perfection [ref Quran 5:3]

It is time for you to be among the people whom God said:

[ Allah ] said, “My punishment – I afflict with it whom I will, but My mercy encompasses all things.” So I will decree it [especially] for those who fear Me and give zakah and those who believe in Our verses.

Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered prophet, whom they find written in what they have of the Torah and the Gospel, who enjoins upon them what is right and forbids them what is wrong and makes lawful for them the good things and prohibits for them the evil and relieves them of their burden and the shackles which were upon them. So they who have believed in him, honored him, supported him and followed the light which was sent down with him – it is those who will be the successful.

Say, [O Muhammad], “O mankind, indeed I am the Messenger of Allah to you all, [from Him] to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth. There is no deity except Him; He gives life and causes death.” So believe in Allah and His Messenger, the unlettered prophet, who believes in Allah and His words, and follow him that you may beguided.       (Quran 7:156-158)
