Muhammad Not Mentioned in the Bible |
Well, Iris, evidently you've been doing this too long! (I still think you act more like an insolent teenager though) The places in Isaiah that refer to Muhammad are not claimed by any Christian, including Matthew Henry, to refer exclusively to Jesus. Isaiah 21 refers to ARABIA where Jesus never went. Isaiah 28 refers to the Book being given to an unlearned man who, when told to read, replied, I cannot read: which exactly what happened to Muhammad when Gabriel first commanded him to read! (an exact fulfillment of prophecy which never happened with Jesus by the way) Also, Isaiah 42 refers to the villages which Kedar inhabits: Kedar was the son of Ishmael from which Muhammad is descended. Again, that in no way according to anyone refers to Jesus, much less exclusively to Jesus. You are simply and hysterically overstating your case, Iris: I don't "see Muhammad everywhere" but honestly acknowledge where Scripture DOES very apparently refer to him. You, on the other hand, seem to think that if Matthew Henry didn't know something about a particular Bible text then there is nothing more to be known about it. No disrespect for Mr. Henry intended, but h... |

IS ALLAH THE GOD OF BIBLE? |
Dear Anonymous, I'm sorry I didn't know about your comment until now. As Sittie Halimah has already posted, the term Son of God in the Bible is not referring to a literal Son but is a figurative term. The term in the Bible is not exclusive to Jesus, nor does it in any way mean that Jesus was carnally "begotten" by Allah. Rather, the New Testament says, "as many as are led by the Spirit of God, THEY are the Sons of God." (Romans 8:14) As Muslims we recognize that Allah is our Creator, our Cherisher and Sustainer, which is exactly what the term Father in the Bible is meant to convey. It does not in any way mean that Allah begets chidren like pagan gods are imagined to have done. I hope this helps, Anonymous, I understand that the difference in terminology between the Quran and Bible is quite confusing, but I assure you, what I have written is the exact Truth of the whole matter. Assalam Aleykum to you, Sittie Hatimah. |

Iris, does the 89 in your signature stand for the year in which you were born? If so, your stance is somewhat understandable, however even a teenager should realize that Matthew Henry is not the Spirit of Truth and there is far more to Scripture than what men say. The Spirit of Truth when he is come will lead you into all truth: Muhammad himself is not the Spirit of Truth, but he was used by the Spirit of Truth to overturn the traditions of men that had corrupted Christianity by 600 AD. Failing to realize this is the cause of the blindness of much of Christiandom and as shown before leads men into the deadly peril of blaspheming against the Holy Spirit by attributing to the devil the work the Most High did through the Prophet Muhammad. Peace be upon all the Prophets of Allah and peace to His people. |

Examples for interested readers: Isaiah 7:14-17 refers primarily to the LORD giving King Ahaz a sign of a young woman bearing a son named Immanuel, specifying that before Immanuel knew to refuse evil and choose good, the kings of Israel and Syria would both forsake their reign due to invasion by the King of Assyria. It was plainly NOT a primary reference to Jesus (peace be upon him) though verse 14 out of its context drew a parallel to his life. Likewise, Isaih 9:2 is plainly NOT primarily a reference to Jesus ministry being in Galilee but refers directly to the inhabitants of that region being relieved of its oppressors in the days of Isaiah's life, not hundreds of years later. Likewise with Isaiah 21:13-17 & 42:10-12, though perhaps Muhammad's journey to Madinah and the revelation of the Quran (the new song sung unto the LORD) are not the primary or near at hand fulfillments of those prophecies, the scope of prophecy does expand to reflect in amazing detail those events in the life of Muhammad. Likewise with Isaiah 29:12 referring to Muhammad the unlettered prophet and Isaiah 28:11,12 referring to the rest and refreshing brought to people of faith via the Qura... |

Iris, you need to take a closer look at the "Bible prophecies relating to Jesus" so that you can address this subject with more Scriptural accuracy: Many of the OT writings said to be prophecies about Jesus are PRIMARILY NOT references to Jesus, but are addressing people and events in the specific times of the Prophets who penned the prophecies in question. Likewise, Bible prophecies relating to Muhammad are NOT primary references to him, even though they are accurate in relating about him or events in his life EXACTLY like the prophecies about Jesus. Peace be upon all the Prophets of the Most High and upon His people. |

Muhammad Not Mentioned in the Bible |
The author of this article needs to study many of the New Testament citations of various Old Testament passages that are said to be in reference to Jesus: from the respective context of several such passages they are clearly NOT primary references to the life of Jesus (may peace be upon him) Nevertheless, those OT passages DO note similarities that are manifested in Jesus life and times. Thus also do several OT passages bear witness to the life and times of Muhammad (may peace be upon him). Isaiah 21:13-17 bears witness to the early Muslims leaving Mecca and being received in Medina, after which the glory of Kedar-- the tribe of Quraish-- was diminished at the battle of Badr-- within three years as the prophecy stipulates. Likewise, Isaiah 42:9-16 describes the origin of the Quran, the new song sung by millions of Muslims since ~630 AD, first instituted among the villages that Kedar doth inhabit, giving glory to the LORD and declaring His praises worldwide. The message of Islam is foretold there to lead BLIND Laodicean Christianity in paths that they have not known, making darkness light and crooked things straight. In the same way, the references discussed in Iris' ... |

IS ALLAH THE GOD OF BIBLE? |
here's the rest of that study: Seeing that every time the word "God" is used in the English New Testament, in Aramaic it is Alah or some derivative of Alah, Christians can now read their English Bible translations and everytime they see the word "God" they can read aloud the name Allah, the name Yahshua used in reference to the Most High! In the Arabic Quran, the word HUWA is used extensively referring to ~He who IS~ and is intimately connected with Allah : 2:163 And your Allah is One Allah. there is no god but He, Most Gracious, Most Merciful. Wailahukum ilahun wahidun la ilaha illa huwa alrrahmanu alrraheemu 2:255 Allah. there is no god but He,-the Living, the Self-subsisting, Eternal. Allahu la ilaha illa huwa alhayyu alqayyoomu 40:65 He is the Living (One): there is no god but He: Call upon Him, giving Him sincere devotion. Praise be to Allah, Lord of the Worlds! Huwa alhayyu la ilaha illa huwa faodAAoohu mukhliseena lahu alddeena alhamdu lillahi rabbi alAAalameena 59:23 Allah is He, than Whom there is no other god; the Sovereign, the Holy One, the Source of Peace (and Perfection), the Guardian of Faith, the Preserver ... |

for anyone who wants to study the relevant facts, here is a short article proving that the name Allah is in the Bible and that He is the same One whom Jesus worshipped: In the books of Ezra and Daniel, the Chaldean word rendered by Hebraists as "Elaah" is translated into English as "God" 92 times. In the Hebrew text the name is spelled "Aleph, Lamed, He" (ALH). As the Hebrew "Aleph" is equivalent to "A" in English, ALH is equal to "Allah" when used as a name. The exact references are, in the book of Ezra: from 4:24 to 6:18 every time the word "God" appears in the English text (27 times), the Hebrew word is ALH. And again, from 7:12 to 7:26 every time the English text has "God" (16 times) the Hebrew word is ALH. This same Chaldean word, spelled in Hebrew ALH, is used from Daniel 2:18 to 9:26 a total of 35 times, translated as "God" each time. A Hebrew word spelled "ALH" but rendered "Eloah" by Hebraists, is used 40 times in the book of Job in reference to the Most High, is translated as "God". ALH rendered by Hebraists as "Eloah" i... |

What Are the Differences Between Mainstream Religions and Monotheistic Bible is the Standard Religions |
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in the article above, stating that the Christian trinity was formulated after the pattern of a Roman trinity, is a very important detail in the history of Christianity. Hopefully many Christians will give that point due consideration and turn away from compromise to worship the only true God as Jesus worshipped Him. __________________ (The Quran) is a plain statement to men, a guidance and instruction to those who fear Allah, So lose not heart nor fall into despair, for ye MUST gain mastery if ye are true in faith. 3:138, 139 |

Comment on Muhammad Not Mentioned in the Bible
Posted on September 2, 2008
Magnification of Scriptures concerning Muhammad: Isaiah 21 refers to ARABIA where Jesus never went.It relates how some Arabians would flee from one location in Arabia, be received by other Arabians in another location in Arabia and that within a year the archers of the tribe of Kedar would be diminshed. That all describes what happened in the year of Hijira, when Muhammad and his followers left Meccah, were received in Madinah and within a year from his establishment there in Madinah, his enemies from the tribe of Kedar-- exactly as prophesied-- were diminished in the Battle of Badr. Isaiah 28 refers to the Book being given to an unlearned man who, when told to read, replied, I cannot read: which exactly what happened to Muhammad when Gabriel first commanded him to read! (an exact fulfillment of prophecy which never happened with Jesus by the way) Also, Isaiah 42 refers to the villages which Kedar inhabits: Kedar was the son of Ishmael from which Muhammad is descended. It foretells that these and other people would be involved in "singing a new song to the LORD" which describes exactly the rythmic and melodious recitation of the Quran, now being heard the wor...
