Muhammad & Prophethood:-
The Oxford dictionary, explains-
Prophet: A person who PREDICTS, or claims to be able to PREDICT, what will happen in the FUTURE.
From this root comes Prophecy, Prophesy & Prophetic, all of which are associated with foretelling future events.
From Moses to most of the Jewish Prophets, they were not only WARNERS of their people, but actually PREDICTED what would happen in the future.
Not once in the Quran, did Muhammad predict a future event that actually came true. In fact, Aisha, in the Ahadith insisted that he COULD NOT tell future events.
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 6.378 Narrated byMasruq
I said to 'Aisha, "O Mother! Did Prophet Muhammad see his Lord?" 'Aisha said, "What you have said makes my hair stand on end ! Know that if somebody tells you one of the following three things, he is a liar:
"Whoever tells you that Muhammad saw his Lord, is a liar." Then Aisha recited the Verse:
"No vision can grasp Him, but His grasp is over all vision. He is the Most Courteous Well-Acquainted with all things." (6.103) "It is not fitting for a human being that Allah should speak to him except by inspiration or from behind a veil." (42.51) 'Aisha further said,
"And whoever tells you that the Prophet knows what is going to happen tomorrow, is a liar."
She then recited:
"No soul can know what it will earn tomorrow." (31.34) She added: "And whoever tells you that he concealed (some of Allah's orders), is a liar." Then she recited: "O Apostle! Proclaim (the Message) which has been sent down to you from your Lord..." (5.67) 'Aisha added, "But the Prophet saw Gabriel in his true form twice."
Sahih Al-Bukhari HadithHadith 9.477 Narrated byMasruq
'Aisha said, "If anyone tells you that Muhammad has seen his Lord, he is a liar, for Allah says: 'No vision can grasp Him.' (6.103) And if anyone tells you that Muhammad has seen the Unseen, he is a liar, for Allah says: "None has the knowledge of the Unseen but Allah."
In many of the verses of the Quran and stories of the Ahadith, Muhammad did his best to portray himself as an Arabian version following in the footsteps of the Hebrew prophets.
He actually fancied himself to be, the fulfilment of the Jewish tradition of the Messiah; that he, Muhammad, was the promised Messiah for whom the Jews & Christians had been waiting.
61:6 And remember Jesus the son of Mary said: "O Children of Israel! I am the apostle of Allah (sent) to you confirming the Law (which came) before me and giving glad Tidings of an Apostle to come after me whose name shall be Ahmad." But when he came to them with Clear Signs they said "This is evident sorcery!"
*** Any reader of the Hebrew Bible and the New Testament would know that neither Muhammad nor Ahmad are either mentioned or predicted in these Scriptures.
Of course, being totally ignorant of the required attributes of the Jewish Messiah, he non the less, unilaterally claimed this position, and became full of hate towards the Arabians of the faith of the Jews because they derided his claims, and refused to follow his CULT.
This enraged him to such an extent, as to have had their men massacred, and their women and children enslaved, raped or sold and their wealth distributed among his plundering followers while he kept his 20% share of the booty and loot.
Not a single one of the Hebrew prophets behaved with such UNGODLY, SELFISH and MORALLY as well as RELIGIOUSLY DEPRAVED manner ***
2: 204 There is the type of man whose speech about this world's life may dazzle thee and he calls Allah to witness about what is in his heart; yet is he the most contentious of enemies.
*** This verse is the most incredibly truthful one in the Quran since it fits Muhammad PERFECTLY ***
