I believe Muhammad may the prophet discussed below
in John 1:19 to 22 and is also maybe the prophet described in Deuteronomy 18:15 The question
is was Muhammad a faithful honest prophet ?
John 1 1599 Geneva Bible
19 Then this is the record of John, when the Jews
sent Priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou?
20 And he confessed
and [ap]denied not, and said plainly, I am not that Christ.
21 And they
asked him, What then? Art thou Elijah? And he said, I am not. Art thou that Prophet? And he answered, No.
22 Then said
they unto him, Who art thou, that we may give an answer to them that sent us?
What sayest thou of thyself?
- John 1:21 They
inquire of some great Prophet, and not of Christ, for John denied before,
that he is Christ, for they thought that some great Prophet should be sent
like unto Moses, wresting to that purpose that place of Deut. 18:15, which is to be
understood of all the company of the Prophets and ministers, which have
been and shall be to the end, and especially of Christ, who is the head of
all Prophets.
Deuteronomy 18:15
1599 Geneva Bible
15 The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a
[i]Prophet like unto me, from among you, even of thy brethren: unto him ye
shall hearken.
16 According
to all that thou desiredst of the Lord thy God in Horeb, in the day of the
assembly, when thou saidest, Let me hear the voice of my Lord God no more, nor
see this great fire anymore, that I die not.
17 And the
Lord said unto me, They have well spoken.
18 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.
19 And whosoever will not hearken unto my words,
which he shall speak in my Name, I will [k]require it of him.
The
next line is a warning not to misrepresent God .
20 But the Prophet that shall presume to speak a
word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak, or that speaketh in
the name of other gods, even the same Prophet shall die.

And I will make this my Covenant with them, saith the Lord, My Spirit that is upon

mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of the seed of

There
are some glaring errors in the Quran verses. Some verses seem illogical or
absurd or unintelligible or simply untrue. Was these errors deliberate by Muhammad
to change verse meanings or did the compilers of the book do it for some
nefarious need. To give credit to Muhammad many verses do seem to be endowed
with divine wisdom and I believe they are probably from God.
Did God Kill Muhammad because of the following
?
The
Quran says in [64:44] , "And if Muhammad had made up about us some [false]
sayings, we would have cut from him the aorta". Is this true or Mohammed can get away
if he isn't a true prophet?
Narrated
`Aisha:
The
Prophet (ﷺ) in his ailment in which he died, used to say,
"O `Aisha! I still feel the pain caused by the food I ate at Khaibar, and
at this time, I feel as if my aorta
is being cut from that poison."
وَقَالَ يُونُسُ عَنِ الزُّهْرِيِّ، قَالَ عُرْوَةُ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ ـ رضى الله عنها ـ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَقُولُ فِي مَرَضِهِ الَّذِي مَاتَ فِيهِ " يَا عَائِشَةُ مَا أَزَالُ أَجِدُ أَلَمَ الطَّعَامِ الَّذِي أَكَلْتُ بِخَيْبَرَ، فَهَذَا أَوَانُ وَجَدْتُ انْقِطَاعَ أَبْهَرِي مِنْ ذَلِكَ السَّمِّ ".
The Quran does seem to correctly affirm the Gospel
and Tora.
It is
confirmed that the Gospel and Tora are still the same as they were at the time
when the Quran was written the corruption of the bible is debunked.
