Was Muhammad Mentioned in the Bible?

Muslims believe that prophet Jesus (peace be upon him) spoke the Gospel in his native language which is Aramaic. The earliest translations were in Greek.

It is very interesting that the Greek word which was eventually translated into English as “Comforter” (Helper) is “Parqaleeta” and the meaning of this word is “one whom people praise exceedingly”.

It does not mean “the Holy Ghost” which is told the so called “Comforter” means.

What is even more fascinating is the fact that the name Muhammad has exactly the same meaning as Parqaleeta “one whom people praise exceedingly”!

We will quote from the Noble Qur’an about the connection of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) with the Bible as follows:

And [mention, O Muhammad], when Moses said to his people, “O my people, why do you harm me while you certainly know that I am the messenger of Allah to you?” And when they deviated, Allah caused their hearts to deviate. And Allah does not guide the defiantly disobedient people. And [mention] when Jesus, the son of Mary, said, “O children of Israel, indeed I am the messenger of Allah to you confirming what came before me of the Torah and bringing good tidings of a messenger to come after me, whose name is Ahmad.” But when he came to them with clear evidences, they said, “This is obvious magic.” (As-Saff 61: 5-6)
