❞ كتاب The Promised Prophet of the Bible ❝ ⏤ Munqith ibn Mahmood As Saqqar

 Praise to Allah the cherisher and sustainer of the worlds, and may
peace and blessings be upon all of His messengers and may the
best of blessings and peace be upon our prophet Muhammad.
There is no doubt that the prophet-hood of our prophet Muhammad
(PBUH) is one of two important tasks that the Muslim is carrying to
humanity.
Muslims believe that to prove the prophet-hood of Muhammad
(PBUH) is one of many essential tasks in their religion; therefore, it is
a compulsory duty for Muslims to present this evidence and proof.
There are many and various ways to prove that, but the most
important way is by understanding the prophecies given by the
previous prophets that prophesize and confirms the arrival and the
authority of a final prophet to humanity, in order to re-establish the
religion that God Almighty accepts until the Day of Judgment.
The reason that these prophecies are most important, and why
Muslims are concerned, is that they exist in the Jewish and Christian
sacred writings, and that they indicated the coming of Muhammad
(PBUH) centuries ago and in various eras.
Jews and Christians acknowledge the existence of these prophecies
and affirm that they indicate the coming of "the final prophet" or "the
great prophet"; however, they still insist that he is a man who is a
descendant from the children of Israel. The Christians claim that he
is Jesus (PBUH) son of Mary, while the Jews are still expecting him.
We aim here to prove that he, the expected prophet, is Muhammad
(PBUH) and not any of the previous prophets peace be upon them
all.
Regarding the books that contain these prophecies, we have
explained their conditions and credibility in other books of this series,
by using these books as a reference, it is not to complement them;
however, it is merely an attempt to search between the lines for
some traces from the previous prophets. We as Muslims believe in
those traces and we do not deny them, because they meet an
agreement with what we believe.
Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) brought to our attention that these
books contain some truth, He said:

The Promised Prophet of the Bible

(٣)
{When you ask them about anything if they tell you the
truth do not call it a lie, and when they tell you lies do not
believe in it}.

In other words, if the previous books contain information, that match
verses of the Holy Quran, and the tradition of Muhammad (PBUH),
then this is proof that, it is true and has not been altered. “The
Unbelievers say: "No apostle art thou." Say: "Enough for a
witness between me and you is Allah, and such as have
knowledge of the Book.” (Al-Ra'd: 43)..
