Description of the Prophet Muhammad in the Holy Quran and Sunnah. Description of the Prophet Dealing with Relatives, the Poor and the Weak

Muhammad is an Arab preacher of monotheism, the founder and central figure of the religion of Islam, the prophet of Muslims. According to Islamic beliefs, Allah revealed to Muhammad the holy scripture - the Quran.

The Messenger of Allah was born in Mecca on April 22, 571. The arrival of a special child to Muhammad's mother was announced by an angel who came in a dream. The birth of the prophet was accompanied by amazing events. The throne of the king of the Persians Kisra shuddered under the ruler as from the shock of an earthquake. 14 balconies collapsed in the royal hall. The boy appeared circumcised. Those present at the birth saw the newborn raise its head and lean on its hands.

Mohammed belonged to the Quraish tribe, considered by the Arabs as an elite. The family of the future preacher of the Koran belonged to the Hashemites, a clan named after the great-grandfather of Muhammad - Hashim, a wealthy Arab who was honored to feed the pilgrims. The father of the prophet Abdollah is the grandson of the powerful Hashim, but he did not amass wealth like his grandfather. The small merchant barely earned his family food. The father did not see the son who became the greatest prophet - he died before the birth of Muhammad.

At the age of 6, the boy became an orphan - Amina, Muhammad's mother, died. The woman temporarily gave her son to be raised by the Bedouin Halima, who lived in the desert. The orphaned boy was taken in by his grandfather, but soon Mohammed ended up in his uncle's house. Abu Talib was a kind but extremely poor man. The nephew had to take up work early and learn how to earn a living. For a penny, little Mohammed grazed goats and sheep belonging to wealthy Meccans and picked berries in the desert.

At the age of 12, the teenager plunged into the atmosphere of spiritual quest for the first time: together with his uncle, Mohammed visited Syria, where he got acquainted with the religious movements of Judaism, Christianity, and other beliefs. He worked as a camel driver, then became a merchant, but questions of faith did not leave the guy. When Mohammed turned 20, he was taken as a clerk in the house of a widowed woman, Khadija. The young man, carrying out the instructions of the hostess, traveled around the country, was interested in local customs and beliefs of the tribes.

Khadija, being 15 years older than Muhammad, offered the 25-year-old boy to marry her, which the woman's father did not like, but she was stubborn. The young clerk got married, the marriage turned out to be happy, he loved and respected Khadija. Marriage brought prosperity to Muhammad. He devoted his free time to the main thing, to which he was attracted from a young age - spiritual quests. Thus began the biography of the prophet and preacher.

preaching

The biography of the main Muslim prophet says that Muhammad moved away from the world and fuss, plunging into contemplation and meditation. He liked to retire in deserted gorges. In 610, when Muhammad was in the cave of Mount Hira, the archangel Gabriel (Jibril) appeared to him. He called the young man a messenger of Allah and ordered to memorize the first revelations (verses of the Koran).

History says that the circle of followers of Muhammad, who preached after meeting with Gabriel, constantly grew. The preacher called his fellow tribesmen to a righteous life, urged them to observe the commandments of Allah and prepare for the coming judgment of God. The Prophet Muhammad said that the Almighty God (Allah) created man, and with him all living and non-living things on earth.

The Messenger of Allah called Musa (Moses), Yusuf (Joseph), Zakaria (Zachariah), Isa () as predecessors. But a special place in Muhammad's sermons was given to Ibrahim (Abraham). He called him the forefather of the Arabs and Jews and the first to preach monotheism. Muhammad saw his mission in restoring the faith of Ibrahim.

The aristocrats of Mecca saw Muhammad's sermons as a threat to power and plotted against him. Companions persuaded the prophet to leave the dangerous land and move to Medina for a while. He did just that. Hundreds of companions moved to Medina (Yasrib) in 622 after the preacher, forming the first Muslim community.

The community grew stronger and, as a punishment to the Meccans for having expelled the preacher and his associates, attacked the caravans leaving Mecca. The funds from the robbery were directed to the needs of the community.

In 630, the previously persecuted prophet Muhammad returned to Mecca, solemnly entering the holy city 8 years after the exile. Merchant Mecca met the prophet with crowds of admirers from all over Arabia. Mohammed's procession through the streets was majestic. The Prophet, dressed in simple clothes and a black turban, sitting on a camel, was accompanied by tens of thousands of pilgrims.

The saint entered Mecca as a pilgrim, not a triumphant. He walked around the holy places, performed rituals and offered sacrifices. 7 times the Prophet Muhammad traveled around the Kaaba and touched the sacred Black Stone as many times. In the Kaaba, the preacher announced that "there is no God but the one Allah," and ordered the destruction of 360 idols that stood in the temple.

The surrounding tribes did not immediately accept Islam. After bloody wars and thousands of human casualties, they recognized the Prophet Muhammad and accepted the Koran. Mohammed soon became the ruler of Arabia and created a powerful Arab state. When Muhammad's proteges and commanders appeared in Mecca, he returned to Medina, visiting the grave of his mother Amina. But the prophet's joy at the triumph of Islam was overshadowed by the news of the death of the only son of Ibrahim, on whom his father had placed his hopes.

The sudden death of his son crippled the preacher's health. He, sensing the approach of death, again moved to Mecca to pray for the last time in the Kaaba. Hearing about the intentions of the prophet and wanting to pray with him, 10 thousand pilgrims gathered in Mecca. The Prophet Muhammad traveled around the Kaaba on a camel and sacrificed animals. With a heavy heart, the pilgrims listened to the words of Muhammad, realizing that they were listening to him for the last time.

In Islam, for believers, the name is endowed with sacred meaning. Muhammad is translated as "worthy of praise", "praised". In the Qur'an, the name of the prophet is repeated four times, in other cases, Muhammad is called Nabi ("prophet"), Rasul ("messenger"), Abd ("servant of God"), Shahid ("witness") and several other names. The full name of the Prophet Muhammad is long: it includes the names of all his ancestors in the male line, starting with Adam. Believers call the preacher Abul-Qasim.

The day of the Prophet Muhammad - Mawlid al-Nabi - is celebrated on the 12th day of the third month of the Islamic lunar calendar, Rabi al-awwal. Muhammad's birthday is the third most honored date for Muslims. The first and second places are occupied by the holidays of Eid al-Adha and Eid al-Adha. During his lifetime, the prophet celebrated only them.

The descendants celebrate the day of the Prophet Muhammad with prayers, good deeds, stories about the miracles of the saint. The birthday of the prophet became a holiday 300 years after the advent of Islam. The life story of Mohammed (Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed) is sung in the book of the Azerbaijani writer Huseyn Javid. The drama is called The Prophet.

More than a dozen films have been made about the central figure of Islam. In the mid-1970s, Mustafa Akkad's American-Arabic film The Message (Muhammad the Messenger of God) was released. In 2008, viewers saw the 30-episode series "The Moon of Hashim", filmed by film studios in Jordan, Syria, Sudan and Lebanon. About the life and character of the saint, the film "Muhammad - the Messenger of the Almighty" directed by Majid Majidi was shot, which premiered in 2015.

Personal life

Khadija surrounded the young husband with maternal care. Muhammad, freed from the hassle and business affairs, devoted his time to religion. The union with Khadija was generous for children, but the sons died. After the death of his beloved wife, Muhammad repeatedly married, but the number of wives of the prophet's sources are different. Some indicate 15, others indicate 23, of which Muhammad had physical relations with 13.

The British Arabist and professor at the University of Edinburgh, William Montgomery Watt, in his works on the history of Islam, reveals the reason for the different number of wives of the prophet: the tribes, claiming family ties with the saint, attributed wives-tribesmen to Muhammad. The Prophet Muhammad entered into marriages before the Qur'anic prohibition allowing marriage four times.

Researchers agree that the prophet had 13 wives. Heading the list is Khadija bint Khuwaylid, who married Muhammad against her parents' will. Historians claim that none of the subsequent wives of the prophet took the place in his heart that went to Khadija.

Of the 12 wives who appeared after the first, Aisha bint Abu Bakr is called the beloved. This is the third wife of the Prophet Muhammad. Aisha is the daughter of the caliph, she is called the greatest of the seven scholars of Islam of her time.

All the children of the prophet, except for the son of Ibrahim, were born by Khadija. She gave her husband seven offspring, but the boys died in infancy. Muhammad's daughters lived to see the start of their father's prophetic mission, converted to Islam and moved from Mecca to Medina. All except Fatima died before their father. Daughter Fatima died six months after the death of the great father.

Death

The health of the Prophet Muhammad deteriorated after the farewell Hajj to Medina. The Messenger of Allah, having gathered the remaining strength, visited the graves of the martyrs and performed the funeral prayer. Returning to Medina, the prophet retained a clear mind and memory until the last day. He said goodbye to relatives and followers, asked for forgiveness, distributed his savings to the poor and released the slaves. The fever intensified, and on the night of June 8, 632, the Prophet Muhammad died.

The wives were not allowed to wash the body, the male relatives washed the deceased. The Messenger of Allah was buried in the clothes in which he died. For three days, believers said goodbye to the Prophet Muhammad. The grave was dug in the place where he died - in the house of his wife Aisha. Later, a mosque was erected over the ashes, which became the shrine of the Muslim world.

Pilgrimage to Medina, where Muhammad is buried, is considered a charitable deed. Believers make a journey to Medina along with a pilgrimage to Mecca. The mosque in Medina is inferior in size to the mosque in Mecca, but it amazes with its beauty. It is built of pink granite and decorated with gold, embossing and mosaics. In the center of the mosque there is an adobe hut where the prophet Mohammed slept, and the tomb of the saint.

Prophets and Holy Books, confirming the truth of the teachings and messages of previous prophets, also proclaimed to people about the prophets who were to appear in the future.

It should be noted that the weight of the prophets (peace be upon them!) warned their followers about future prophets, except for Muhammad (DBAR), "the seal of prophecy." Muhammad declared himself the last prophet of God, completing the chain of prophecy. So, despite the changes, the Bible retained the light containing information about the prophecy and the mission of Muhammad (DBAR).

Here is what God says in the Quran about it:

"Those to whom We have given the Scripture know our Messenger (Muhammad) as they know their sons. But some of them hide the truth, having knowledge" (2:146).

The lines of this verse indicate that the Bible contained a description of the Prophet Muhammad (DBAR), his external features and spiritual qualities, and everyone who met him would recognize him as a Prophet.

Here is another verse from the Holy Quran:

"Those to whom We have given the Scripture know it as they know their sons. Those who offended themselves, they are the unbelievers" (6:20).

It follows from these lines that the people of the book (Jews and Christians) knew the description of Muhammad (DBAR) as well as the description of their children, who are observed every day. And by denying his prophecy, they offended themselves, rejected the clear signs of God.

Jesus (peace be upon him!) as well as Moses (peace be upon him!) prepared his followers for the coming of Muhammad. Here is what Almighty God says about this: “And Jesus, the son of Mary, said: “O children of Israel, truly I am the Messenger of God to you, confirming the Torah that was sent down before me, and bringing you glad tidings of the Messenger that will come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad." And when he gave them clear evidence - the miracles of God, they said: "This is a clear sorcery" (61:6).

Now let's see what the Bible says about the Prophet Muhammad (DBAR). Here we use the writings of the priest of the Roman Catholic Church, Benjamin Keldani. Benjamin Keldani, who spoke Aramaic, Arabic, Greek, Latin, Old Assyrian and Hebrew, having studied the Holy Scriptures in the original, converted to Islam with the name Abdul Ahad Daoud.

This is what Deuteronomy says: "I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brethren, and I will put my words in his mouth, and he will speak to them whatever I command him" (Deut. 18:18). These words are addressed to Moses (peace be upon him!), who should announce this to the sons of Israel. Who are these words about? Is there a person who matches this description? Let's look at the text of the New Testament with quotes from the Torah: "Which heaven was to accept until the time of the completion of everything that God says through the mouth of all His holy prophets from the beginning. Moses said to the fathers:" The Lord your God will raise up for you from your brothers a prophet like me; obey him in everything he tells you; and it shall come to pass that every soul that will not hearken to that prophet shall be cut off from the people" (Acts 3:21-23). ​​There are several points to be noted here:

1) "A prophet from among their brethren"; 2) "Such as you"; 3) "The soul that does not obey that prophet will be cut off from the people."

Let's take everything in order:

1) Jews and Arabs belong to the Semitic group and are fraternal peoples. Thus, this prophet must be from among the Arabs, brothers of the Jewish people; 2) This prophet must be like Moses (AS).

Our Christian comrades claim that these lines refer to Jesus (AS). But Jesus (AS) is nothing like Moses (AS). Jesus (AS) was supernaturally conceived, was not married, no one obeyed him, did not formulate laws, and did not lead the army. Now let's characterize Moses (AS): I) He had numerous followers during his lifetime, was the leader and leader of the Jewish community; II) Personally led numerous wars i.e. was a military leader; III) He gave the law of God and personally judged for its violation (he was a judge); IV) He had a brother and a deputy in the person of Aaron (Haruna a.s.). Now let's compare with Muhammad (DBAR): I) He had numerous followers during his lifetime, he was the leader and leader of the community, they obeyed him just like the Jews of Moses (AS); II) Personally led numerous wars i.e. was a military leader; III) He gave the law of God and personally judged for its violation (he was a judge); IV) He had a brother and a deputy in the person of Ali Ibn Abu Talib (AS). The Prophet Muhammad (DBAR), going on a campaign to Tabuk, left Ali (AS) for himself in Medina and said to him: “Do you not agree to be in relation to me in the same position as Aaron was in relation to Moses, with the only difference that after me there is no prophet" (Sahih Al Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, Sahih Ibn Maja, Musnad Ibn Hanbal). In all respects, Muhammad (DBAR) perfectly fits the description contained in the lines of the above verse.

3) "The soul that does not obey that prophet will be cut off from the people."

These words further support the idea that they refer to Muhammad (DBAR), who exterminated the Jews who plotted against Muslims and opposed him and the religion he brought. And they did it in a vile and insidious way.

A group of Jews, among whom were people from Banu al-Nadir and Banu Wail, who took up arms against the Prophet, came to the Quraysh in Mecca and called them to go to war against the Prophet, promising to join them until they completely destroyed him. The Quraysh answered them: "O Jews! You are the people of the First Book and knowledge. We disagree with Muhammad on one issue: is our religion better or his religion?" The Jews replied: "Your religion is better than his. You are more right than he." About them, Allah Almighty said: “Have you not seen those to whom a part of the Scripture was given? They believed in idols and Satan, told the unbelievers that they follow a more correct path than the believers. will not find a helper" to the words of the Almighty:

When the Jews said this to the Quraysh (Gentiles), the latter rejoiced and began to prepare for war. The Quraysh agreed and conspired among themselves. (Sirat Ibn Hisham. Umma Publishing House. p. 285.)

Upon learning of the conspiracy, the Prophet (DBAR) ordered the Muslims to dig a ditch and prepare for war. The enemy of Allah Hawaiy Ibn Akhtab An-Nadari came to Kaab Ibn Asad Al-Qurazi, who made a treaty and gave an obligation on behalf of the (Jewish tribe) Banu Qurayza Prophet (DBAR) that no hostile action would be taken on their part. (ibid., pp. 287-288). But word reached the Prophet that the Jews had decided to break the treaty. The Prophet said: “Go and see if what has reached me about these people is true or not. If it is true, then tell me allegorically so that I understand, and do not weaken the spirit of the people! let people know loudly!" (ibid., p. 288). They went and came to the Banu Qurayza and found that the situation was worse than they had been told. They insulted the Prophet, saying: "And who is the Messenger of Allah? There is no agreement and mutual obligation between us and Muhammad" (ibid., p. 288).

Thus, the pagan Arabs entered into a secret alliance with the Jewish tribe of Qurayza inhabiting Medina, which was supposed to strike at the Muslims from the rear. After several unsuccessful attempts to storm the city, in conditions of extremely bad weather, lack of food and doubts about the strength of the alliance with the Jews (thanks to the "secret" Muslims sowing discord between them), the Quraysh were forced to retreat.

Later, the Prophet (DBAR) went on a campaign against the Banu Qurayza and ordered the killing of all adult males of this tribe (Ibn Hisham, Sira; p.299).

Doesn't that match the description of the Prophet in the Bible: "The soul that will not obey that prophet shall be cut off from the people" (Acts 3:23). At the same time, it absolutely does not correspond to the biography of Jesus (AS), who did not "exterminate" anyone from the Jewish people or any other people, although many did not "obey him."

Other words from the Torah will help us to find out the identity of the promised prophet.

“This is the blessing with which Moses, the man of God, blessed the sons of Isoael before his death. He said: “The Lord came from Sinai, revealed himself to them from Seir, shone from Mount Paran and went with ten thousand saints; in his right hand is the fire of the law "(Deut. 33:1-2). In these words, the Lord was likened to the sun. He will come from Sinai (the place where the law was sent down to Moses), open from Seir (where Jesus preached), and shine in all his splendor from Paran (Arabia), whence he was to appear with ten thousand saints, with the fire of the law in his right hand.

Jesus (A.S.) has nothing to do with Arabia (Pharan), therefore, it speaks of a prophet who will come with a new old religion after Jesus and give the law of God in Arabia. The forefather of Muhammad (DBAR) Ishmael (AS) wandered in the desert of Bathsheba with his mother Hagar, and later they lived in Arabia (Pharan). "Abraham got up early in the morning, and took bread and a skin of water, and gave Hagar, laying on her shoulders, and a lad, and let her go. She went and lost her way in the wilderness of Beer-sheba" (Genesis 21:14). "He lived in the desert of Paran; and his mother took him a wife from the land of Egypt" (Genesis 21:21) From his first-born Adnan came a generation of Arabs who have since lived in the deserts of Arabia (Paran). Muhammad (DBAR), like all Arabs, comes from the dynasty of Ishmael and his first-born Adnan. He was born, lived, preached, and spread Islam precisely from Faran, and entered Mecca with ten thousand soldiers, and gave the fire of the law to mankind (Sharia)! The Prophet (DBAR) informed the Muslims that he was going to Mecca and ordered them to prepare carefully. "He moved and stopped in a place with ten thousand Muslims" (Hisham, p. 357). The Prophet with ten thousand soldiers entered Mecca and conquered it without bloodshed, the pagans family after family began to accept Islam. What became the confirmation of the words of Allah: "When the help of Allah arrives and victory comes, and when you see that people in crowds begin to accept the faith of Allah, then praise your Lord and ask him for forgiveness, for He is Forgiving" (Quran, 110: 1-3).

Doesn't the description of the coming prophet in the Bible match the personality of Muhammad (DBAR)? Wasn't the prophecy literally fulfilled?

God! I heard your hearing and was afraid. God! Do Thy work in the midst of the years, reveal it in the midst of the years, remember mercy in anger. God is coming from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. His majesty covered the heavens, and the earth was filled with His glory" (Hab. 3:2-13).

"Let the wilderness and its cities raise their voices, the villages where Kidar dwells; let those who live on the rocks rejoice, let the tops of the mountains proclaim. Let them give glory to the Lord, and let His praise be proclaimed on the islands. ; he will call and raise a military cry, and show himself strong against his enemies "(Is. 42: 11-13).

Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen over you" (Isaiah 60:1). "Many camels will cover you" (Isaiah 60:6). "All the sheep of Kidar will be gathered to you; they will ascend to My altar with a pleasing sacrifice, and I will glorify the house of My glory "(60:7). "Prophecy about Arabia - spend the night in the forest of Arabia, caravans of Dedan! Those who live in the land of Themai! Bring water to those who are thirsty; Meet the fleeing with bread, for they flee from swords, from a drawn sword, and from a drawn bow, and from the ferocity of war. For thus said the Lord to me: another year, equal to a year in the mercenary, and all the glory of Kidar will disappear, and the bows of the brave sons of Kidar will be few: thus said the Lord "(Is. 21: 13-17).

Now let's look at the prophecies of Isaiah in the light of what was predicted to Moses (AS) about the "coming of God's light from Paran" and the prophet Habakkuk. Ishmael lived in the Faran desert, where Kidar (Adnan), who was the first ancestor of the Arabs, was born to him. The descendants of Kidar were ordered to receive a revelation from God, and the Kidar obtsy had to "ascend to the altar" of God with a pleasing sacrifice in order to glorify the "house of glory" of God. Pagan darkness was supposed to cover this land for several centuries, then this land was supposed to receive light from the Lord, and all this "Kydar glory" i.e. the pagan one was to disappear: numerous archers, as well as the brave sons of Kidar, were to disappear within one year from the swords and bows of the holy warriors from Paran. And how could all these predictions come true on Jesus (AS), who had never been to Faran (Arabia).

These predictions came true only on one historical figure and one historical event. Muhammad (DBAR) - a descendant of Ishmael from Kidar, who settled in Faran from whom the Arabs descended. Muhammad (DBAR) is the only prophet who brought a revelation from God to the Arabs when darkness covered the earth. Through him, God's light shone in all its splendor, from Paran, and Mecca is the only place where the House of God was glorified and Kidar sheep ascended the altar as a pleasing sacrifice.

Muhammad (DBAR) was oppressed by his people and had to leave Mecca. He felt thirsty as he fled from drawn swords and drawn bows. A year after the flight, the Kidar descendants went to meet him at Badr - the field of the first battle between the Muslims and the pagan Meccans, where the Kidar sons with numerous archers were defeated, and all the glory of Kidar disappeared. And the "House of My Glory" that Isaiah speaks of is the house of God in Mecca, the Kaaba, the foundation of which was laid by the prophet Abraham (AS). And not the church of Christ, as Christians mistakenly believe, for the Kidar sheep did not come to the church of Christ as a sacrifice, but were sacrificed in Mecca. Do millions of people visit the church of Christ every year? The attendance of Mecca has become a proverb, when they want to emphasize the attendance and fame of a place, they say that this is Mecca for so-and-so.

The mention of 10,000 saints in Deuteronomy (33:2) also gives a clear and precise description of the event of the conquest of Mecca. The Messiah shone from Mount Paran and walked with ten thousand soldiers, that is how many Muslims were during the conquest of Mecca. In the entire history of Faran (Arabia) there was not a single event corresponding to this description, with the exception of when Mecca was conquered by the Prophet (DBAR). He left Medina with ten thousand soldiers and entered the House of the Glory of God. "The Messenger (DBAR) stood at the door of the Kaaba and said: "There is no Deity but Allah alone! He has no equal! His promise was fulfilled, His servant won. He alone defeated all opponents" (Hisham, p. 364).

He gave the world the fire of law (Sharia) which surpassed all other laws. Sharia, being the command of God, is observed by millions of believers around the world and operates in many countries as the legal system of the state. And this is despite the fact that Shariah was given to the world 14 centuries ago, and it is still the most perfect and flawless legal system that the world has ever seen. Is there any other legal system that would have such vitality and universality? Thus, the promised prophet is none other than the Prophet Muhammad (DBAR).

But that's not all, there are passages in the Bible that speak of the coming of Muhammad even more clearly. These are the places in the text where it is said about "Blessed", "Desired". In Hebrew, words are written in consonants, just like in Arabic. Vocalizations i.e. the addition of vowel sounds is made on the basis of oral tradition, i.e. possible discrepancies. That is why, in order to avoid discrepancies, under Caliph Omar, written vocalizations were made in the Koran.

This is what the book of the prophet Haggai says: "And I will shake all the nations, and the Desired of all nations will come, and I will fill this house with glory, says the Lord of Hosts" (Hag. 2:7). "The glory of this last temple will be greater than the former, says the Lord of hosts; and in this place I will give them peace, says the Lord of hosts" (Hag. 2:9). these three letters are HMD, which are read in Hebrew as HiMDa, in Aramaic as HiMiDa. However, these same three consonants, read as AHMaD, mean the same thing in Arabic, and this is precisely the name of the Prophet given by his parents at birth. The Almighty Himself called him Muhammad when he was called to serve at the age of 40. The names Muhammad and Ahmad are synonymous and come from the root "hamd" - praise. Ahmad is a more laudatory and revered meaning. Thus, the text of the prophecy can be read as "Desired", "Blessed", or it can be read as Ahmad (Praised), because. ancient names have meaningful meaning. History does not know another prophet, except Muhammad (DBAR) who would fit this description. The words "The glory of this last temple will be greater than the former one," says the Lord of hosts; and in this place I will give them peace (the vowels SLM, "Shalom"), says the Lord of hosts, clearly testify to Islam and its Prophet (DBAR). The word "peace" (SLM), which will be given to mankind in Mecca, in Arabic means Islam. "And remember how Isa, the son of Mary, said: "Sons of Israel! I am a messenger from Allah to you in order to confirm the truth of the law (Torah) that was sent down to you before me, and will tell you the blogest news that a Messenger will come after me, whose name is Ahmad "(Quran. 61: 6). Almost the same thing says Evangelical Jesus: “When the Comforter comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, He will testify about me” (John 15:26). name into Greek. Since in ancient times Greek was written with abbreviated vowels to save space (there was no paper, and they wrote on fragments of leather), in ancient manuscripts there is "PRKLTS", which Christians began to read as "parakletos "- i.e. "Intercessor", "Comforter". But if the same word is read as "periklitos", which means "Blessed", "Desired", then we will get the Greek translation of the word - the name Ahmad! Thus, the words of Jesus (who spoke army and not Greek) gospel match in meaning and with the prophecy Haggai, and with the above passage from the Koran.

And here are other lines from the Gospel of John:

"But I tell you the truth: it is better for you that I go; for if I do not go, the Comforter (i.e., as we have already found out Ahmad) will not come to you; and if I go, I will send him to you. ( John 16:7) "But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all truth, for he will not speak of himself, but he will speak what he hears, and he will announce the future to you. He will glorify me" (John 16:13-14).

Verse 7 makes it clear that the word "PRCLTS" or "Comforter" cannot be Jesus himself (AS). But if we say that the "Comforter" (Ahmad) is identical with the Holy Spirit, then the Holy Spirit constantly accompanied Jesus (AS), and this does not correspond to the words "if I do not go, the Comforter will not come to you."

The word "laleo" (to speak) used in this verse means "to make sounds" in the broad sense of the word and "to speak" in the narrow sense. And how can this be attributed to the Holy Spirit? And how did the Holy Spirit glorify Jesus? No, these words refer to the Prophet Muhammad (DBAR) who revered and glorified Jesus, thanks to him, a billion Muslims around the world revere Jesus as one of the greatest Prophets and Messengers of God. It was he who defended Mary (peace be upon her!) from the accusations of the Jews, who attributed adultery to her. Could it have been the Holy Spirit or someone else?

And, finally, the Gospel of Matthew: "When the Pharisees gathered, Jesus asked them: "What do you think about Christ"? Whose son is he? They say to him: Davidov. He says to them: How then, by inspiration, does David call him the Lord when he says: "The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, until I make Your enemies Your footstool"? So if David calls him Lord, how is he his son? And no one could answer him a word; and from that day no one dared to question him any more" (Matt. 22:41-46). Here Jesus quotes a Psalm of David, which says: "The Lord said to my Lord, Sit at my right hand, until I make your enemies your footstool" ( Ps. 109:1). Then he asks: "If David calls him (Messiah, Messiah) Lord, how is he (David's) son?" Christians use the word "Lord" twice here in translation into European languages, and the second time in relation to Jesus (AS). This, in their opinion, proves that Jesus is equal to God. However, in the original there are two different words: "said Yahweh to Adonai." Yahweh (Jehovah) is the proper name of God among the Jews, not applicable to what more. And Adonai really translates as "Lord", "Lord", "Lord", and can be applied to great people. Even the official Orthodox dictionary admits that this word can be applied to a great man - a ruler, a leader. And without adding the name of God himself, it cannot be considered as an indispensable designation of God. ovo "Lord", also, is simply the Old Slavonic form of the word "master" - lord, master, lord. The Russian "God God" is a translation of the Hebrew "Adonai Yahweh". So, in the Psalm, Yahweh (God) said to another being - Adonai (not to himself and not to the second god!), To stay with him until all his enemies are defeated at his feet. But this does not correspond in any way to the life of Jesus Christ, crucified on the cross, according to the Gospels, by his enemies. Yes, and Jesus himself speaks of Christ (Messi, Mashiach) in the third person, arguing that he, unlike Jesus himself, will not be a descendant of David (AS)! Therefore, from the text of the Gospel of Matthew, it follows that Jesus is talking about someone else, but not about himself. And since the names of the previous messiahs to Jesus are not named, it can be assumed that we are talking about the Messiah who will appear in the future, who will have the glory of the winner and who will not be a descendant of David (a.s.) (V. Polosin, "Predicts Does the Bible come of Muhammad (DBAR)?" / / Iman, No. 5).

Therefore, it is logical to assume that Jesus (AS) is talking about that other protector (intercessor, comforter) Mashiach (masiah, messiah), who will be sent from among the brothers of the Jews, i.e. Arabs. He will give a new law of God, and which is Desirable - Ahmad for all nations. And this person is Muhammad Ibn Abdullah (DBAR). "He came with the truth and justified the messengers" (Quran. 37:37).

Poor, the lowest slave of Allah Gurban

The Almighty endowed the Messenger of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) with exceptional good character and good appearance. In spiritual and external beauty, he surpasses all.

From the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) a mysterious nur, radiance poured out. He was of average height, neither tall nor short. Hassan praised him thus: His height is perfect: not tall, but seeming taller than everyone else, and not shorter than others ».

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had the most beautiful and pleasant face. Describers often compared his face to the full moon. Some of his contemporaries called him moon-faced, others said that they could not get enough of him, others said that the body and face were given to him as if he himself was allowed to choose them. He was like the sun that rises over everything.

About the appearance of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) they say: “ He's beautiful like the full moon ». « I couldn't get enough of the beauty of his face ». « He was so handsome that it seemed that he himself was asked what appearance to bestow on him. ».

His beard was black and thick. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had only 17 gray hairs. His neck shone like it was made of silver. The chest and shoulders were broad and powerful. The forearms and hips were athletic. He was proportionately complex. Between the shoulder blades was the seal of the prophecy in the form of a relief triangle. The fingers were as if cast from silver, the hands were softer than silk. When they greeted him, a pleasant smell and an unusual feeling of lightness and warmth remained even after several days. When the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) put his hand on the head of one of the children, then these children could then be distinguished from others by a very pleasant smell. His hair was wavy. He sometimes gathered them into four pigtails, and sometimes loosened them.

The color of the skin of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was white with a hint of blush. Beads of sweat on his face looked like pearls. The scent of his sweat was sweeter than musk. This is what Anas said about it: A radiance emanated from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), droplets of his sweat were like pearls, and while walking, he leaned forward slightly and walked sedately (with dignity, but not slowly). I never touched silk or brocade, which were softer than the hands of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and I never inhaled the scent of musk or ambergris, which would be more pleasant than the smell emanating from him ».
