Bible confirms that Mohammed :saw: is the promised Prophet...

**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. **

This is the God of the Bible speaking to Moses :as:. And what is the Bible saying in the words of the very God that Christians worship? The God that Christians worship is telling Moses :as: that He shall send down a Prophet “like unto thee”, meaning like Moses :as: himself.

Who is this Prophet that was like unto Moses :as:? Christians believe that he was Jesus :as:. Nothing could be further from the truth. The Bible is explicitly mentioning the Holy Prophet Mohammed :saw: without a doubt.

But the Christians have doubts, so let’s dispel those doubts. Let’s compare Jesus (as) and Mohammed (saw) and see who is best like unto Moses (as).

  1. Moses (as) was conceived by the conjunction of man and woman just like our Holy Prophet (saw).

Jesus (as) was of a miraculous virgin birth without the presence of a father.

  1. Moses (as) had children, and so did our Holy Prophet (saw).

Jesus (as) had no children.

  1. Moses (as) was born in the desert like our Holy Prophet (saw).

Jesus (as) was born in a city.

  1. Moses (as) emigrated with his people to flee persecution, as did our Holy Prophet (saw).

Jesus (as) didn’t emigrate anywhere with his people.

  1. Moses (as) got married, as did our Holy Prophet (saw).

Jesus (as) did not marry.

  1. Moses (as) was a shepherd, as was our Holy Prophet (saw).

Jesus (as) was a carpenter.

  1. Moses (as) died a natural death, as did our Holy Prophet (saw).

Jesus (as) didn’t die, he was raised.

Of course there are many others that I am not aware of off the top pf my head, but if an ignorant person like myself can just mention these striking similarities between Moses (as) and the Holy Prophet (saw), I am sure a scholar would be able to do more…

Of course there would be Christian rebuttals and refusals and this points to this and that, but as the Quran undoubtedly states:

**The Qur’an 2:256

“Let there be no compulsion in religion: truth stands out clear from error.”
**

Jazakallah o khair brother Lajawab …

Indeed our prophet :saw: was mentioned in all holy scriptures..including bible..hindu scriptures..buddhist and others…

I would like to contest that, I don't think it was prevalent in the original scriptures. It seems a misconception amongst many.

Help me understand here a bit... Bible (atleast parts of it) are considered to be divine by muslims and thus includes word of God Almighty. Are hindu scriptures and buddhist holy books also considered to be word of God? Who were the messengers on whom these books were revealed? Are they mentioned in the Quran? If they are not, then why would they be mentioning about our Prophet (Peace be upon him)?

So its quite possible that their old scriptures were also words of God and have been altered like Bible and other old books. I have noticed/heard about some similarities of Hinduism with Islam.

Dress of a Pandat is quite similar to Ahram.
Pandat's Morning Allap (relegious words) have somewhat same meanings like Surrah Ahad.
They do 7 anti clockwise 'phairey' around their most sacred element of faith 'Agni' to make it a witness of their marriages much like we do not on weddigs but in Hajj around 'Kaba'. I also have heard that 'Agni' (Fire) also means the 'Awal' (Very First) according to their old scriptures.
Also there is some mentioning of "Aamna ka beita' in their old books.

(I am sorry for not providing any refrence, it was actually discussed few years back while studying in Islamic University in our 'Islamiat' class. Please any Hindu, correct me if I am wrong)

does that mean the Bible is authentic?? or is this the usual 'pick and choose' from sectarian Muslims?

Who knows if Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism came from the same source and teachings…Maybe they did and maybe they didn’t, but here’s me view…

www.irf.net Quite a useful site on this issue.

It always astonishes me that people cannot seem to connect the dots that are sooo obvious sometimes. If one read’s Geta or the readings of Hazrat Confucius it doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that the language has a divine tone.

Besides its common belief that there were 124,000 or so prophets before AnHazoor [saw] and only a fraction are mentioned in Quran. To consider all of them from the Abrahamic tradition, as is usually believed to be, not only makes the scientifically accepted age of humanity go weird but also paints of picture of a God who played favoritism for no good reason. Not to mention the verses of the Quran that claim prophets being sent to every nation.

As a Muslim, I don't care if the Bible is authentic or not, I am speaking from the Christian perspective who claim that the Bible IS authentic and the word of God...

Hindu's culture and civilization is the most ancient culture & civilization.Thier religion is also ancient religion but is changing with time.So may be they are also the followers of one of the 124000 messangers.

In muslim comunity a belief is building as "The hindus are the quam who lost thier prophet.May be hindus are from Noah AS's Qaum" (one huge boat had also found during the year 1990's near Himalya's side),Study is still going on .So not sure here.Anyways leave it...

The Ved puran are the main holy script of hundus.But they mainly consider Geeta as thier guideline.Their book GEETA's Updesh are quite similar in many aspect to our quran's message, specially when it talks about 'how to spent the life'.Geeta teaches so many common and idial things that our prophet SAW told us.

Geeta is actually a book that contains the message given by Krishna.They consider krishna as Lord . Might Krishna be among 124000 messanger.So its quite possible that their old scriptures were also words of God as bible and have been altered like Bible and other old books
