Muslims believe that Muhammad's prophethood in Islam is foretold in Biblical writings.[1]

Biblical references which purportedly prefigure Muhammad

Some of the texts Muslims point to include:

  • The reference to the Paraclete or Advocate in the Gospel of John (John 14:16, 14:26, 15:26 and 16:7): Muslims believe that the wording here conveys the sense of "commendable" or "selection", and that this refers to Muhammad (or Ahmed). (Christians believe these texts refer to the Holy Spirit.)
  • The manifestation of the light of God in Deuteronomy 33:2, and in Exodus 3:1–3:4 in the Desert of Paran, which Arabic tradition locates in the region of Mecca. (Genesis 21 associates Hagar and Ishmael (ancestors of Muhammad) with the Desert of Paran.)
  • Prophecy in Deuteronomy 15:18 and 18 it has named his remarks that God puts in her mouth and the Israelites should brothers be Ishmael.
  • Muslims often regard Isaiah 42 as a direct foretelling of Muhammad[2], and not as a general foretelling of a Lord's Servant, as interpreted by Jewish and Christian scholars[3]. Muslim scholars assert that the passage describes the people of Kedar, (descendants of Ishmael and the ancestors of Muhammad) and thus the passage refers to Muhammad himself, even though it does not name him directly.[2]
  • A powerful divine person with the right to administer justice is established in Psalms 45, 72, 149 and 21

Background

Muslims including Muhammad Abu Zahra claim that changes were made to the present-day canon of the Bible, and claim that similar assertions about the last prophet occur in other old books such as the Gospel of Barnabas.[4]

Material available from the "Anis Alalam" Compilation "Fkhralaslam, books Shiite world", Sheikh Jawad Gorge "and the book" Haq said "Compilation" Sheikh Rahmatullah Hindi "and" reject Alyhvd "Compilation" New MR Mirza Islam "(the universe Jews who were Muslim) is provided.[clarification needed]

Islamic scholars[who?], because of the migration of Jews to the land of Aghvami Hejazi to reside in the obscure village of Yasrebi (Yathrib, later known as Medina) and overtaking the land Mshrkyn to Islam, the same anticipation and predictions, and verse 89 of the Sura al-Baqara (2:89 (Translated by Yusuf Ali)) knows about hope and expect the initial Scripture and disbelief to believe in Muhammad and his new religion.[clarification needed] Therefore hostility developed between Jews and Muhammad, and the wars[which?] between them and Muhammad occurred.[clarification needed]
