Prophecies of the Messenger of Allah (pbuh) in the Books of Old
Allah Almighty
said, {And verily, it is in the Scriptures of former peoples.}[Al-Shu`araa' 26:
196]
Allah's Messenger, Muhammad (pbuh), was
foretold in the books held sacred in other religions, though what we hold in
our hands today are but the remnants of the words of the prophets of old after
they were corrupted, subtracted from, and changed. Yet, it is the Will of Allah
(Mighty & Majestic) that some of these prophecies of the Prophet Muhammad
(pbuh) remain in the books they hold sacred.
Among the scriptures of old which contain
glad tidings of the Messenger of Allah, Muhammad (pbuh) are:
1.
The Samaveda: one of the
sacred books of the Brahmins, which states, "Ahmad receives the law from
his Lord, and it is full of wisdom. It was taken from the light as one takes
from the sun."
2. From
the book, Nada Avasta: A prophecy about the Messenger in which he is described
as "mercy to the worlds" (sooshiyant) and, throwing obstacles
in his way was an enemy, called in Persian: Abu Lahab. He invited people to
worship One God, who has no equal (heej jeezbaar wa namaar).
3. In the
book, Zaradashtiya: "When the nation of Zaradasht turns away from their
religion, they will decline, and a man from the land of the Arabs with
followers from Persia will rise and subjugate the arrogant Persians, and after
worshipping fire in their temples, they will turn their faces toward the Ka`aba
of Abraham which was cleansed of idols. On that day, they—the followers of the
Prophet—will become mercy for the worlds, and leaders of Persia, Madian, Tous,
and Balakh, and these are the holy places for Zaradashtians and those around
them. Their prophet will be eloquent and speak in miracles."
4. In the
book, Bafooshiya Baranim (Bahoosh Baranim): "At that time, a foreigner
will be sent with his companions, and his name will be Muhaamad, and his title
will be the Praised Teacher, and he will purify the kingdom with the purifying
fifth."
5. In the
book, Uru Afydam (Idharuwidam): "Oh people! Hear and know! The Muhammad
will be sent in the midst of the people…and his greatness will be praised, even
in Heaven. He will subjugate it to him and he is the Muhaamad."
6. In the
book, Banushiya Baranim, there is a description of the companions of the
Prophet (pbuh), "They are those who get circumcised, and they do not grow
goatees; they grow full beards and call the people to prayer in a loud voice.
They eat most animals, except swine."
Who are the people who call to prayer in a
loud voice (the adhan)?
They are the Muslims, who make the call to
prayer periodically, inviting the people to their Creator and the Creator of
all things.
