Muhammad’s coming is mentioned in the Bible |

(Quran: 2:75)
Do you (Muslims) really hope that they (the people of
the Book: Jews and Christians) would believe in your
religion?
Whereas a party of them (rabbis and priests) heard the
Words Of God in (the Bible)
(about the coming of the prophet of Islam),
then they altered it knowingly, after they had
understood its implications
(That they won’t be important rabbis and priests
anymore, if they would accept the truth of Quran and
Muhammad).
Genesis (Old Testament) 21:13, 16:3, and 17:20 regarding
Hagar, mother of Ishmael,
Deuteronomy 18:18, Moses spoke of a coming prophet from
among the Israelites, “brethren”,
a reference to Ishmaelites, cousins of Israelites;
Ismael or Ishmael was the older brother of Isaac
(the lineage of Israelites), Moses explicitly promised
that they will become a “great nation”.
Deuteronomy 33:1 and 33:2 combines reference to Moses,
Jesus and Muhammad:
It speaks of God (‘s revelation) coming from Sinai (to
Moses), from Seir (Sair near Jerusalem) (to Jesus)
and shining from Paran (according to Genesis 21:21,
Paran was the wilderness, where Ishmael with his mother
Hagar settled (Area of Mecca, Arabia).
Psalms 84:4, 84:5, and 84:6 mentions the pilgrims who
will be passing through the valley of Baca, (another
name for Mecca).
Isaiah 42:1 through 42:13 speaks of beloved God’s elect
and messenger to be awaited in the isle (Arabian
Peninsula),
who will be a descendent of Kedar.
According to Genesis 25:13, Kedar was the second son of
Ishmael, the ancestor of Prophet Muhammad.
Habakkuk 3:3 speaks of God (‘s help) coming from Teman
(an oasis north of Medina)
and the holy one (coming) from Paran.
That holy one who under persecution migrated from Paran
(Mecca) to Teman (Medina) is indeed the prophet
Muhammad.
This is vividly described in Isaiah 21:13 through 21:17,
telling also of the battle (Badr) in which a few
ill-armed faithful men miraculously would defeat the
“mighty” men of Kedar (Qureish) of Mecca.
Isaiah 42:10 and 42:11 says: He will speak (a scripture
in a new language), with stammering lips and another
tongue:
Isaiah 28:10, 28:11, 28:12, and 28:13. The name Muhammad
is noted in Songs of Solomon 5:16 as Makhmad:
“totally desirable”; “Makhmadim”: the adherents of
Muhammad.
John 14:16 and 15:26 and 16:5 through 16:14 Jesus speaks
of the coming of “the comforter – counselor: paraklytos.
Paraklytos was originally Periklytos: “Ahmad”, another
name for Muhammad;
meaning the one who praises God more than anyone else.
This is also mentioned in Quran 61:6.
