True christianity and how it leads to islammuzaffertahir9
Muslims devoutly believe in Jesus, Moses and all other true prophets. Catholics, Protestants, and Muslims all claim to believe in Jesus. Why, then, are there such differences among his believers? The fact is that his teachings have been misinterpreted and misrepresented. Jesus himself did what a sincere Muslim would have done. He submitted to the will of God. He, further, prophesied the corning of Prophet Muhammad.
This short booklet offers Biblical teachings which disavow some beliefs which are wrongly attributed to Jesus Christ. It tells that there is no contradiction between Islam and true Christianity. True Christianity, in fact, leads to Islam.
The whole purpose of this booklet is to promote better understanding, closer relationship, peace, and harmony between Muslims and Christians.
Jesus said:
"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 ... 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 unto all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will show you things to come.
"He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show it unto you". (John 16:7-15)
The document discusses several key points about Islam:
1) Islam comes from the root word "Salam" meaning peace, and means submitting one's will to God. Anyone who submits to God is called a Muslim.
2) Prophet Muhammad was not the founder of Islam - messengers and guides had been sent to all nations since the time of Adam. Muhammad was the final prophet sent for all of humanity.
3) The religion is called Islam and those who follow it are Muslims, not "Muhammedans". Muslims worship God alone.
4) Several revelations were sent including the Torah, Psalms, Gospel and Quran, with the Quran as the final revelation for all
The Quran presents Jesus as a great prophet who was neither divine nor the son of God. It acknowledges his miraculous birth to Mary but emphasizes he was fully human. Jesus's mission was to spread God's message, confirm the Torah, and announce the coming of Muhammad. The Quran rejects the Christian concepts of Trinity and Jesus's crucifixion, stating he was raised alive to heaven and will return before the Day of Judgment. It portrays Jesus as a link in the chain of prophets beginning with Adam and culminating with Muhammad, who fulfilled Jesus's prophecy of a counselor to come.
The document contains verses from the Quran and Hadith inviting people to worship Allah alone without ascribing partners to Him. It also contains verses about treating non-Muslims respectfully by granting them asylum if requested and ensuring their safety and security. The document encourages inviting people to Islam through wisdom, fair preaching, and better argument. It provides a website for more information on Islam and peace.
The document summarizes some key aspects of Islam, including the five pillars of faith: Shahadah (declaration of faith), Salat (prayer), Zakat (charity), Sawm (fasting during Ramadan), and Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). It discusses the story of the prophet Muhammad and the origins of some Islamic beliefs and practices, such as daily prayers, fasting, and the annual pilgrimage retracing the steps of Ibrahim and Hajar in Mecca.
The document summarizes key aspects of the Islamic faith, including the 5 pillars of Islam: Shahadah (faith/testimony in Allah and Mohammed as prophet), Salat (prayer), Zakat (charity), Sawm (fasting during Ramadan), and Hajj (pilgrimage to Mecca). It provides details on the story and teachings of the prophet Mohammed, noting he taught monotheism and the oneness of God, received revelations from Gabriel, and his followers suffered persecution before eventually finding acceptance.
Islam is not the name of some unique religion presented for the first time by Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who should, on that account be called the founder of Islam.
The Qur'an states that Islam - the complete submission of man before his one and only Unique Creator - is the one and only faith and way of life consistently revealed by God to humankind from the very beginning. Noah, Solomon, David, Abraham, Moses, Isaac and Jesus - prophets who appeared at different times and places - all propagated the same faith and conveyed the same message of Tawheed (Oneness of God), Risaalat (Prophethood) and Aakhirah (the Hereafter). These prophets of God were not founders of different religions to be named after them. They were each reiterating the message and faith of their predecessors.
However, Muhammad (pbuh) was the last Prophet of God. God revived through him the same genuine faith which had been conveyed by all His Prophets. Since there was to be no messenger after Muhammad (pbuh), the Book revealed to him (i.e. the Qur'an) was preserved word for word so that it should be a source of guidance for all times.
"Verily, We have sent down to you (O Muhammad (S)) the Book (this Quran) for mankind in truth. So whosoever accepts the guidance, it is only for his own self, and whosoever goes astray, he goes astray only for his (own) loss. And you (O Muhammad (S)) are not a Wakeel (trustee or disposer of affairs, or manager) over them." (The Noble Quran 39:41)
The document discusses the lineage of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) as described in the Bible. It notes that both Isaac and Ishmael were sons of Abraham, and God's promise to bless the descendants of Abraham could apply to both lineages. While the Bible focuses on the lineage of Isaac/Israelites, it is largely silent on the Ishmaelites except for brief mentions. The document argues that Prophet Muhammad descended from Ishmael and fulfilled the promise to bless the families of the earth through Abraham's descendants.
The document discusses similarities between Moses and Muhammad based on their experiences as prophets. It notes both received comprehensive laws from God, faced enemies but were victorious in miraculous ways, and were accepted as prophets and statesmen. The document argues this indicates the prophecy in Deuteronomy referring to a prophet like Moses is referring to Muhammad, not Jesus, since Muhammad shared more experiences with Moses. It provides additional evidence for this view from the Gospel of John and passages in Isaiah and Genesis.
The document discusses prophecies in the Old and New Testaments regarding a prophet to come, providing evidence that this refers to the Prophet Muhammad. It notes references in texts like Deuteronomy, Songs of Solomon and the Gospel of Barnabas that indicate Muhammad. The life and teachings of Muhammad are then summarized, including his receiving of revelations and spreading of monotheistic worship of God.
The document discusses the prophecies in the Holy Bible regarding the coming of an expected king and prophet. It describes how the Israelites were awaiting a savior to free them from Roman occupation and restore their kingdom according to prophecies of Jacob, Moses, and David. When Jesus performed miracles, some followed him hoping he was this prophesied figure. However, after his crucifixion they were disappointed, as he did not fulfill prophecies of conquering enemies and leading them to victory. The disciples also asked Jesus if he would restore their kingdom, showing they still awaited the expected king.
This document introduces a book that aims to prove that the prophet Muhammad is the prophet foretold in Jewish and Christian scriptures. It begins by acknowledging those who helped produce and translate the book. It then discusses how proving Muhammad's prophethood is important for Muslims. The book will examine prophecies in the Bible to argue they refer to Muhammad, not Jesus. It discusses terms like "Messiah" that were used for prophets. The introduction sets up the goal of matching Bible prophecies to Muhammad.

Strategies for Effective Upskilling is a presentation by Chinwendu Peace in a Your Skill Boost Masterclass organisation by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan on 08th and 09th June 2024 from 1 PM to 3 PM on each day.
MATATAG CURRICULUM: ASSESSING THE READINESS OF ELEM. PUBLIC SCHOOL TEACHERS I...NelTorrente
In this research, it concludes that while the readiness of teachers in Caloocan City to implement the MATATAG Curriculum is generally positive, targeted efforts in professional development, resource distribution, support networks, and comprehensive preparation can address the existing gaps and ensure successful curriculum implementation.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

1. Say: "O people of the Book! come to common terms as between us and you: that we
worship none but Allah; that we associate no partners with Him; that we erect not
from among ourselves Lords and patrons other than Allah."
[Ch 3 verse 64]
Invite (mankind, O Muhammad pbuh) to the Way of your Lord (i.e. Islam) with
wisdom (i.e. with the Divine Revelation and the Quran) and fair preaching, and
argue with them in a way that is better. Truly, your Lord knows best who has gone
astray from His Path, and He is the Best Aware of those who are guided.
[Ch 16 verse 125]
If one amongst the pagans (disbelievers) ask thee for asylum, grant it to him, so that
he may hear the word of Allah; and then escort him to where he can be secure that
is because they are men without knowledge.
[Ch 9 verse 6]

2. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in Bible
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the Old Testament:
The Qur’an mentions in Surah Al-Araf chapter 7 verse 157:
"Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in
their own (scriptures) in the law and the Gospel".
1. MUHAMMAD (PBUH) PROPHESISED IN THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY:
Almighty God 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 I will put
my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him."
The Christians say that this prophecy refers to Jesus (pbuh) because Jesus (pbuh) was like
Moses (pbuh). Moses (pbuh) was a Jew, as well as Jesus (pbuh) was a Jew. Moses
(pbuh) was a Prophet and Jesus (pbuh) was also a Prophet.
If these two are the only criteria for this prophecy to be fulfilled, then all the Prophets of
the Bible who came after
Moses (pbuh) such as Solomon, Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Malachi, John the
Baptist, etc. (pbuh) will
fulfill this prophecy since all were Jews as well as prophets.
However, it is Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who is like Moses (pbuh):
i) Both had a father and a mother, while Jesus (pbuh) was born miraculously without any
male intervention.
[Mathew 1:18 and Luke 1:35 and also Al-Qur'an 3:42-47]
ii) Both were married and had children. Jesus (pbuh) according to the Bible did not marry
nor had children.
iii) Both died natural deaths. Jesus (pbuh) has been raised up alive. (4:157-158)
Muhammad (pbuh) is from among the brethren of Moses (pbuh). Arabs are brethren of
Jews. Abraham (pbuh) had two sons: Ishmail and Isaac (pbut). The Arabs are the
descendants of Ishmail (pbuh) and the Jews are the descendants of Isaac (pbuh).
Words in the mouth:
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was unlettered and whatever revelations he received from
Almighty God he repeated them verbatim.
3. "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."
[Deuteronomy 18:18]
iv) Both besides being Prophets were also kings i.e. they could inflict capital punishment.
Jesus (pbuh) said, "My kingdom is not of this world." (John 18:36).
v) Both were accepted as Prophets by their people in their lifetime but Jesus (pbuh) was
rejected by his
people. John chapter 1 verse 11 states, "He came unto his own, but his own received him
not."
iv) Both brought new laws and new regulations for their people. Jesus (pbuh) according
to the Bible did not bring any new laws. (Mathew 5:17-18).
2. It is Mentioned in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 18:19
"And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not harken unto my words which he shall
speak in my name, I will require it of him."
3. 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 Gabrail commanded Muhammad (pbuh) by saying Iqra - "Read", he
replied, "I am not learned".
4. prophet Muhammad (pbuh) mentioned by name in the old testament:
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is mentioned by name in the Song of Solomon chapter 5
verse 16:
"Hikko Mamittakim we kullo Muhammadim Zehdoodeh wa Zehraee Bayna Jerusalem."
"His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my
friend, O daughters
of Jerusalem."
In the Hebrew language im is added for respect. Similarely im is added after the name of
Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) to make it Muhammadim. In English translation they have even translated the
4. name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as "altogether lovely", but in the Old Testament in
Hebrew, the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is yet present.
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the New Testament:
Al-Qur'an Chapter 61 Verse 6:
"And remember, Jesus, the son of Mary, said, 'O Children of Israel! I am the messenger
of Allah (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which came) before me and giving glad
tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmed.' But when he
came to them with clear signs, they said, 'This is evident sorcery!' "
All the prophecies mentioned in the Old Testament regarding Muhammad (pbuh) besides
applying to the Jews also hold good for the Christians.
1. John chapter 14 verse 16:
"And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may
abide with you forever."
2. Gospel of John chapter 15 verse 26:
"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."
3. Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 7:
"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".
"Ahmed" or "Muhammad" meaning "the one who praises" or "the praised one" is almost
the translation of the
Greek word Periclytos. In the Gospel of John 14:16, 15:26, and 16:7. The word
'Comforter' is used in the English translation for the Greek word Paracletos which
means advocate or a kind friend rather than a comforter.
Paracletos is the warped reading for Periclytos. Jesus (pbuh) actually prophesised Ahmed
by name. Even the
Greek word Paraclete refers to the Prophet (pbuh) who is a mercy for all creatures.
Some Christians say that the Comforter mentioned in these prophecies refers to the Holy
Sprit. They fail to realise
that the prophecy clearly says that only if Jesus (pbuh) departs will the Comforter come.
The Bible states that the
Holy Spirit was already present on earth before and during the time of Jesus (pbuh), in
the womb of Elizabeth, and again when Jesus (pbuh) was being baptised, etc. Hence
5. this prophecy refers to none other than Prophet
Muhammad (pbuh).
4. Gospel of John chapter 16 verse 12-14:
"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 unto 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".
The Sprit of Truth, spoken about in this prophecy referes to none other than Prophet
Muhammad (pbuh)
NOTE: All quotations of the Bible are taken from the King James Version.
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in Hindu scriptures
I. Muhammad (pbuh) prophesised in Bhavishya Purana
According to Bhavishya Purana in the Prati Sarag Parv III Khand 3 Adhay 3
Shloka 5 to 8.
"A malecha (belonging to a foreign country and speaking a foreign language)
spiritual teacher will appear with his companions. His name will be
Mohammad. Raja (Bhoj) after giving this Maha Dev Arab (of angelic
disposition) a bath in the Panchgavya and the Ganga water (i.e. purifying him
of all sins) offered him the present 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 malecha opponents."
The Prophecy clearly states:
The name of the Prophet as Mohammad.
He will belong to Arabia. The Sanskrit word Marusthal means a sandy track of
land or a desert.
Special mention is made of the companions of the Prophet, i.e. the Sahabas.
No other Prophet had as many companions as Prophet Muhammad (pbuh).
He is referred as the pride of mankind (Parbatis nath). The Glorious Qur’an
reconfirms this
"And thou (standest) on an exalted standard of character"
[Al-Qur'an 68:4]|
"Ye have indeed in the Messenger of Allah, a beautiful pattern (of conduct)".
[Al-Qur'an 33:21]
6. He will kill the devil, i.e. abolish idol worship and all sorts of vices.
The Prophet will be given protection against his enemy.
Some people may argue that ‘Raja’ Bhoj mentioned in the prophecy lived in
the 11th century C.E. 500 years after the advent of Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) and was the descendant in the 10th generation of Raja Shalivahan.
These people fail to realise that there was not only one Raja of the name Bhoj.
The Egyptian Monarchs were called as Pharaoh and the Roman Kings were
known as Caesar, similarly the Indian Rajas were given the title of Bhoj.
There were several Raja Bhoj who came before the one in 11th Century C.E.
The Prophet did not physically take a bath in the Panchgavya and the water of
Ganges. Since the water of Ganges is considered holy, taking bath in the
Ganges is an idiom, which means washing away sins or immunity from all
sorts of sins. Here the prophecy implies that Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was
sinless, i.e. Maasoom.
According to Bhavishya Purana in the Pratisarag Parv III Khand 3 Adhay 3
Shloka 10 to 27 Maharishi Vyas has prophesised:
"The Malecha have spoiled the well-known land of the Arabs. Arya Dharma
is not to be found in the country. Before also there appeared a misguided
fiend whom I had killed; 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 Muhammad (pbuh), 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 Pishacha said to Raja
Bhoj, "O Raja! Your Arya Dharma has been made to prevail over all
religions, but according to the commandments of Ishwar Parmatma, I shall
enforce the strong creed of the meat eaters. My followers will be men
circumcised, without a tail (on his head), keeping beard, creating a revolution
announcing the Aadhaan (the Muslim 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. On
account of their fighting the irreligious nations, they will be known as
Musalmaans. I shall be the originator of this religion of the meat-eating
nations."
The Prophecy states that:
The evil doers have corrupted the Arab land.
Arya Dharma is not found in that land.
The Indian Raja need not go the Arab land since his purification will take
place in India after the musalmaan will arrive in India.
The coming Prophet will attest the truth of the Aryan faith, i.e. Monotheism
7. and will reform the misguided people.
The Prophet’s followers will be circumcised. They will be without a tail on
the head and bear a beard and will create a great revolution.
They will announce the Aadhaan, i.e. ‘the Muslim call for prayer’.
He will only eat lawful things and animals but will not eat pork. The Qur’an
confirms this in no less than 4 different places:
In Surah Al-Baqarah chapter 2 verse 173
In Surah Al-Maidah chapter 5 verse 3
In Surah Al-Anam chapter 6 verse 145
In Surah Al-Nahl chapter 16 verse 115
"Forbidden to you for food are dead meat, blood, flesh of swine, and that on
which hath been invoked the name of other than Allah".
They will not purify with grass like the Hindus but by means of sword they
will fight their irreligious people.
They will be called musalmaan.
They will be a meat-eating nation.
The eating of herbivorous animals is confirmed by the Qur’an in Surah
Maidah, chapter 5 verse 1 and in Surah Muminun chapter 23 verse 21
According to Bhavishya Purana, Parv - III Khand 1 Adhay 3 Shloka 21-23:
"Corruption and persecution are found in seven sacred cities of Kashi, etc.
India is inhabited by Rakshas, Shabor, Bhil and other foolish people. In the
land of Malechhas, the followers of the Malechha dharma (Islam) are wise
and brave people. All good qualities are found in Musalmaans and all sorts of
vices have accumulated in the land of the Aryas. Islam will rule in India and
its islands. Having known these facts, O Muni, glorify the name of thy lord".
The Qur’an confirms this in Surah Taubah chapter 9 verse 33 and in Surah Al
Saff chapter 61 verse 9:
"It is He who hath sent His Messenger with Guidance and the Religion of
Truth, to proclaim it over all religion, even though the Pagans may detest
(it)".
A similar message is given in Surah Fatah chapter 48 verses 28 ending with,
"and enough is Allah as a witness".
II. Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) Prophesised in Atharvaveda
In the 20th book of Atharvaveda Hymn 127 Some Suktas (chapters) are
known as Kuntap Sukta. Kuntap means the consumer of misery and troubles.
8. Thus meaning the message of peace and safety and if translated in Arabic
means Islam.
Kuntap also means hidden glands in the abdomen. These mantras are called
so probably because their true meaning was hidden and was to be revealed in
future. Its hidden meaning is also connected with the navel or the middle
point of this earth. Makkah is called the Ummul Qur’a the mother of the
towns or the naval of the earth. In many revealed books it was the first house
of Divine worship where God Almighty gave spiritual nourishment to the
world. The Qur’an says in Surah Ali-Imran chapter 3, verse 96:
"The first house (of worship) appointed for men was that at Bakkah (Makkah)
full of blessings and of guidance and for all kinds of beings". Thus Kuntap
stands for Makkah or Bakkah.
Several people have translated these Kuntap Suktas like M. Bloomfield, Prof.
Ralph Griffith, Pandit Rajaram, Pandit Khem Karan, etc.
The main points mentioned in the Kuntap Suktas i.e. in Atharvaveda book 20
Hymn 127 verses 1-13 are:
Mantra 1
He is Narashansah or the praised one (Muhammad). He is Kaurama: the
prince of peace or the emigrant, who is safe, even amongst a host of 60,090
enemies.
Mantra 2
He is a camel-riding Rishi, whose chariot touches the heaven.
Mantra 3
He is Mamah Rishi who is given a hundred gold coins, ten chaplets
(necklaces), three hundred good steeds and ten thousand cows.
Mantra 4
Vachyesv rebh. ‘Oh! ye who glorifies’.
The Sanskrit word Narashansah means ‘the praised one’, which is the literal
translation of the Arabic word Muhammad (pbuh).
The Sanskrit word Kaurama means ‘one who spreads and promotes peace’.
The holy Prophet was the ‘Prince of Peace’ and he preached equality of
human kind and universal brotherhood. Kaurama also means an emigrant.
The Prophet migrated from Makkah to Madinah and was thus also an
Emigrant.
He will be protected from 60,090 enemies, which was the population of
9. Makkah. The Prophet would ride a camel. This clearly indicates that it cannot
be an Indian Rishi, since it is forbidden for a Brahman to ride a camel
according to the Sacred Books of the East, volume 25, Laws of Manu pg. 472.
According to Manu Smirti chapter 11 verse 202, "A Brahman is prohibited
from riding a camel or an ass and to bathe naked. He should purify himself by
suppressing his breath".
This mantra gave the Rishi's name as Mamah. No rishi in India or another
Prophet had this name Mamah which is derived from Mah which means to
esteem highly, or to revere, to exalt, etc. Some Sanskrit books give the
Prophet’s name as ‘Mohammad’, but this word according to Sanskrit
grammar can also be used in the bad sense. It is incorrect to apply grammar to
an Arabic word. Actually shas the same meaning and somewhat similar
pronunciation as the word Muhammad (pbuh).
He is given 100 gold coins, which refers to the believers and the earlier
companions of the Prophet during his turbulent Makkan life. Later on due to
persecution they migrated from Makkah to Abysinia. Later when Prophet
migrated to Madinah all of them joined him in Madinah.
The 10 chaplets or necklaces were the 10 best companions of the Holy
Prophet (pbuh) known as Ashra-Mubbashshira (10 bestowed with good
news). These were foretold in this world of their salvation in the hereafter i.e.
they were given the good news of entering paradise by the Prophet’s own lips
and after naming each one he said "in Paradise". They were Abu Bakr, Umar,
Uthman, Ali, Talha, Zubair, Abdur Rahman Ibn Auf, Saad bin Abi Waqqas,
Saad bin Zaid and Abu Ubaidah (May Allah be well-pleased with all of
them).
The Sanskrit word Go is derived from Gaw which means ‘to go to war’. A
cow is also called Go and is a symbol of war as well as peace. The 10,000
cows refer to the 10,000 companions who accompanied the Prophet (pbuh)
when he entered Makkah during Fateh Makkah which was a unique victory in
the history of mankind in which there was no blood shed. The 10,000
companions were pious and compassionate like cows and were at the same
time strong and fierce and are described in the Holy Quran in Surah Fatah:
"Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; and those who are with him are
strong against unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other."
[Al-Qur'an 48:29]
This mantra calls the Prophet as Rebh which means one who praises, which
when translated into Arabic is Ahmed, which is another name for the Holy
Prophet (pbuh).
Battle of the Allies described in the Vedas.
10. It is mentioned in Atharvaveda Book XX Hymn 21 verse 6, "Lord of the
truthful! These liberators drink these feats of bravery and the inspiring songs
gladdened thee in the field of battle. When thou renders vanquished without
fight the ten thousand opponents of the praying one, the adoring one."
This Prophecy of the Veda describes the well-known battle of Ahzab or the
battle of the Allies during the time of Prophet Muhammed. The Prophet was
victorious without an actual conflict which is mentioned in the Qur’an in
Surah Ahzab:
"When the believers saw the confederate forces they said, "This is what Allah
and His Messenger had promised us and Allah and His Messenger told us
what was true." And it only added to their faith and their zeal in obedience."
[Al-Qur'an 33:22]
The Sanskrit word karo in the Mantra means the ‘praying one’ which when
translated into Arabic means ‘Ahmed’, the second name of Prophet
Muhammed (pbuh).
The 10,000 opponents mentioned in the Mantra were the enemies of the
Prophet and the Muslims were only 3000 in number.
The last words of the Mantra aprati ni bashayah means the defeat was given
to the enemies without an actual fight.
The enemies’ defeat in the conquest of Makkah is mentioned in Atharvaveda
book 20 Hymn 21 verse no 9:
"You have O Indra, overthrown 20 kings and 60,099 men with an
outstripping Chariot wheel who came to fight the praised one or far famed
(Muhammad) orphan."
The population of Makkah at the time of Prophet’s advent was nearly 60,000
There were several clans in Makkah each having its own chief. Totally there
were about 20 chiefs to rule the population of Makkah.
An Abandhu meaning a helpless man who was far-famed and ‘praised one’.
Muhammad (pbuh) overcame his enemies with the help of God.
III. Muhammad (pbuh) prophesised in the Rigveda
11. A similar prophecy is also found in Rigveda Book I, Hymn 53 verse 9:
The Sanskrit word used is Sushrama, which means praiseworthy or well
praised which in Arabic means Muhammad (pbuh).
IV. Muhummad (pbuh) is also prophesised in the Samveda
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is also prophesised in the Samveda Book II
Hymn 6 verse 8:
"Ahmed acquired from his Lord the knowledge of eternal law. I received light
from him just as from the sun." The Prophecy confirms:
The name of the Prophet as Ahmed since Ahmed is an Arabic name. Many
translators misunderstood it to be Ahm at hi and translated the mantra as "I
alone have acquired the real wisdom of my father".
Prophet was given eternal law, i.e. the Shariah.
The Rishi was enlightened by the Shariah of Prophet Muhammad. The Qur’an
says in Surah Saba chapter 34 verse 28
"We have not sent thee but as a universal (Messenger) to men, giving them
glad tidings and warning them (against sin), but most men understand not."
[Al-Qur'an 34:28]
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the Bhudhist scriptures
1. Buddha prophesised the advent of a Maitreya:
A) Almost all Buddhist books contain this prophecy. It is in
Chakkavatti Sinhnad Suttanta D. III, 76:
"There will arise in the world a Buddha named Maitreya (the benevolent
one) a holy one, a supreme one, an enlightened one, endowed with wisdom
in conduct, auspicious, knowing the universe:
"What he has realized by his own supernatural knowledge he will publish to
this universe. He will preach his religion, glorious in its origin, glorious at its
climax, glorious at the goal, in the spirit and the letter. He will proclaim a
religious life, wholly perfect and thoroughly pure; even as I now preach my
religion and a like life do proclaim. He will keep up the society of monks
numbering many thousands, even as now I keep up a society of monks
numbering many hundreds".
B) According to Sacred Books of the East volume 35 pg. 225:
"It is said that I am not an only Buddha upon whom the leadership and order
12. is dependent. After me another Buddha maitreya of such and such virtues
will come. I am now the leader of hundreds, he will be the leader of
thousands."
C) According to the Gospel of Buddha by Carus pg. 217 and 218 (From
Ceylon sources):
"Ananda said to the Blessed One, ‘Who shall teach us when thou art
gone?'
And the Blessed one replied, 'I am not the first Buddha who came upon the
earth nor shall I be the last. In due time another Buddha will arise in the
world, a holy one, a supremely enlightened one, endowed with wisdom in
conduct, auspicious, knowing the universe, an incomparable leader of men,
a master of angels and mortals. He will reveal to you the same eternal
truths, which I have taught you. He will preach his religion, glorious in its
origin, glorious at the climax and glorious at the goal. He will proclaim a
religious life, wholly perfect and pure such as I now proclaim. His disciples
will number many thousands while mine number many hundreds.'
Ananda said, 'How shall we know him?'
The Blessed one replied, 'He will be known as Maitreya'."
(i) The Sanskrit word ‘Maitreya’ or its equivalent in Pali ‘Metteyya’ means
loving, compassionate, merciful and benevolent. It also means kindness and
friendliness, sympathy, etc. One Arabic word which is equivalent to all
these words is ‘Rahmat’. In Surah Al-Anbiya:
"We sent thee not, but as a mercy for all creatures."
[Al-Qur’an 21:107]
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was called the merciful, which is ‘Maitri’.
(ii) The words Mercy and Merciful are mentioned in the Holy Qur’an no
less than 409 times.
(iii) Every chapter of the Glorious Qur’an, except Chapter 9, i.e. Surah
Taubah begins with the beautiful formula, 'Bismillah Hir-Rahman Nir-
Rahim', which means 'In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful'.
(iv) The Word Muhammad is also spelt as ‘Mahamet’ or ‘Mahomet’ and in
various other ways in different languages. The word ‘Maho’ or ‘Maha’ in
Pali and Sanskrit mean Great and Illustrious and ‘Metta’ means mercy.
13. Therefore ‘Mahomet’ means ‘Great Mercy’.
2. Buddha’s doctrine was Esoteric and Exoteric:
According to Sacred Books of the East, volume 11, pg. 36 Maha-
Parinibbana Sutta chapter 2 verse 32:
"I have preached the truth without making any distinction between exoteric
and esoteric doctrine, for in respect of truths, Ananda, the Tathagata has no
such thing as the closed fist of a teacher, who keeps something back".
Muhammad (pbuh) on the commandment of Almighty God delivered the
message and doctrine without making any distinction between esoteric and
exoteric. The Qur'an was recited in public in the days of the Prophet and is
being done so till date. The Prophet had strictly forbidden the Muslims from
hiding the doctrine
3. Devoted Servitors of the Buddhas:
According to Sacred Books of the East volume 11 pg. 97 Maha-Parinibbana
Sutta Chapter 5 verse 36:
"Then the Blessed one addressed the brethren, and said, ‘Whosoever,
brethren have been Arahat-Buddhas through the long ages of the past, they
were servitors just as devoted to those Blessed ones as Ananda has been to
me. And whosoever brethren shall be the Arahat-Buddhas of the future,
there shall be servitors as devoted to those Blessed ones as Ananda has been
to me’."
The Servitor of Buddha was Ananda. Muhammad (pbuh) also had a servitor
by the name Anas (r.a.) who was the son of Malik. Anas (r.a...) was
presented to the Prophet by his parents. Anas (r.a...) relates: "My mother
said to him, 'Oh Messenger of God, here is your little servant'." Further
Anas relates, "I served him from the time I was 8 years old and the Prophet
called me his son and his little beloved". Anas (r.a...) stayed by the Prophet
in peace and in war, in safety as well as in danger till the end of his life.
i) Anas (r.a.), even though he was only 11 years old stayed beside the
Prophet during the battle of Uhud where the Prophet’s life was in great
danger.
ii) Even during the battle of Honain when the Prophet was surrounded by
the enemies who were archers, Anas (r.a...) who was only 16 years old
stood by the Prophet.
14. Anas (R) can surely be compared with Ananda who stood by Gautam
Buddha when the mad elephant approached him.
4. Six Criteria for Identifying Buddha:
According to the Gospel of Buddha by Carus pg. 214:
"The Blessed one said, ‘There are two occasions on which a Tathagata’s
appearance becomes clear and exceedingly bright. In the night Ananda, in
which a Tathagata attains to the supreme and perfect insight, and in the
night in which he passes finally away in that ultra passing which leaves
nothing whatever of his earthly existence to remain.’ "
According to Gautam Buddha, following are the six criteria for
identifying a Buddha.
i) A Buddha attains supreme and perfect insight at night-time.
ii) On the occasion of his complete enlightenment he looks exceedingly
bright
iii) A Buddha dies a natural death.
iv) He dies at night-time.
v) He looks exceedingly bright before his death.
vi) After his death a Buddha ceases to exist on earth.
i) Muhammad (pbuh) attained supreme insight and Prophethood at night-
time.
According to Surah Dukhan:
"By the books that makes thing clear – We sent it down during a
blessed night."
[Al-Qur'an 44:2-3]
According to Surah Al-Qadar:
"We have indeed revealed this (message) in the night of power."
[Al-Qur'an 97:1]
ii) Muhammad (pbuh) instantly felt his understanding illumined with
15. celestial light.
iii) Muhammad (pbuh) died a natural death.
iv) According to Ayesha (r.a.), Muhammad (pbuh) expired at night-time.
When he was dying there was no oil in the lamp and his wife Ayesha (r.a.)
had to borrow oil for the lamp.
v) According to Anas (r.a.), Muhammad (pbuh) looked exceedingly bright
in the night of his death.
vi) After the burial of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) he was never seen again
in his bodily form on this earth.
5. Buddhas are only Preachers:
According to Dhammapada, Sacred Books of East volume 10 pg., 67:
"The Jathagatas (Buddhas) are only Preachers."
The Qur’an says in Surah Ghashiya:
"Therefore do thou give admonition, for thou art one to admonish.
Thou art not one to manage (men's) affairs." [Al-Qur'an 88:21-22]
6. Identification of Maitreya by Buddha:
According to Dhammapada, Mattaya Sutta, 151:
"The promised one will be:
i) Compassionate for the whole creation
ii) A messenger of peace, a peace-maker
iii) The most successful in the world.
The Maitreya as a Preacher of morals will be:
i) Truthful
ii) Self-respecting
iii) Gentle and noble
16. iv) Not proud
v) As a king to creatures
vi) An example to others in deeds and in words".
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the Parsi scriptures
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in Zend Avesta
It is mentioned in Zend Avesta Farvardin Yasht chapter 28 verse 129
(Sacred Books of the East, volume 23, Zend Avesta Part II pg. 220):
"Whose name will be the Victorious, Soeshyant and whose name will be Astvat-ereta.
He will be Soeshyant (The Beneficent one) because he will benefit the whole bodily
world. He will be Astvat-ereta (he who makes the people, bodily creatures rise up)
because as a bodily creature and as a living being he will stand against the destruction of
the bodily (being) creatures to withstand the drug of the two footed brood, to withstand
the evil done by the faithful (idolaters and the like and the errors of the Mazdaynians)".
This Prophecy applies to no other person more perfectly than it does to Muhammad
(pbuh):
The Prophet was not only victorious at Fatah Makkah but was also merciful when he let
go the blood thirsty opponents by saying:
"There shall be no reproof against you this day".
Soeshyant means the ‘praised one’ (refer Haisting’s Encyclopedia), which translated in
Arabic means Muhammad (pbuh).
Astvat-ereta is derived from the root word Astu which in Sanskrit as well as in Zend
means ‘to praise’. The infinitive Sitaudan in present day Persian means praising. It can
also be derived from the Persian root word istadan which would mean ‘one who makes a
thing rise up’. Therefore Astvat-ereta means the one who praised, which is the exact
translation of the Arabic word 'Ahmed' which is another name for Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh). The Prophecy clearly mentions both the names of the Prophet i.e. Muhammad
(pbuh) and Ahmed (pbuh).
The Prophecy further says that he will benefit the whole bodily world and the Qur’an
testifies this in Surah Al-Anbiya chapter 21 verse 107:
"We sent thee not, but as a mercy for all creatures."
[Al-Qur'an 21:107]
Sanctity of Prophet’s Companions:
17. In Zend Avesta Zamyad Yasht chapter 16 verse 95 (Sacred Books of the East, volume 23
Zend Avesta Part II pg. 308):
"And there shall his friends come forward, the friends of Astvat-ereta, who are fiend-
smitting, well thinking, well-speaking, well-doing, following the good law and whose
tongues have never uttered a word of falsehood."
Here too Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is mentioned by name as Astvat-ereta.
There is also a mention of the Prophet’s friends as companions who will be fighting the
evil; pious, holy men having good moral values and always speaking the truth. This is a
clear reference to the Sahabas – the prophet's companions.
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in Dasatir:
The sum and substance of the prophecy mentioned in Dasatir is, that when the Zoroastrian
people will forsake their religion and will become dissolute, a man will rise in Arabia,
whose followers will conquer Persian and subjugate the arrogant Persians. Instead of
worshipping fire in their own temples, they will turn their faces in prayer towards Kaaba
of Abraham (pbuh) which will be cleared of all idols. They (the followers of the Arabian
Prophet), will be a mercy unto the world. They will become masters of Persia, Madain,
Tus, Balkh, the sacred places of the Zoroastrians and the neighbouring territories. Their
Prophet will be an eloquent man telling miraculous things.
This Prophecy relates to no other person but to Muhammad (pbuh).
Muhammad (pbuh) will be the Last Prophet:
It is mentioned in Bundahish chapter 30 verses 6 to 27 that Soeshyant will be the last
Prophet implying that Muhammad (pbuh) will be the last Prophet. The Qur’an testifies
this in Surah Ahzab.
"Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the Messenger of Allah, and
the Seal of the Prophets: and Allah has full knowledge of all things."
[Al-Qur'an 33:40]
