Open Question: What the Bible Say About Muhammad?
SAY: “DO YOU SEE? WHETHER THIS MESSAGE BE FROM ALLAH (God Almighty), AND YET YOU REJECT IT, AND A WITNESS FROM AMONG THE CHILDREN OF ISRAEL1 BORE WITNESS OF ONE LIKE HIM…” (SURA AHQAF) Holy Qur’ân 46:10.
1. This refers to Moses. See Yusuf Ali’s commentaries Nos. 4783/4 to this verse.Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen, The subject of this evening’s talk* – “What the BIBLE says about MUHAMMAD (Peace be upon him)” – will no doubt come as a surprise to many of you because the speaker is a Muslim. How does it come about that a Muslim happens to be expounding prophecies from the Jewish and Christian Scriptures?
As a young man, about 30 years ago, I attended a series of religious lectures by a Christian theologian, a certain Rev. Hiten, at the “Theatre Royal”, Durban in South Africa.
* This is the text of a lecture delivered by the author in the early 1970′s.
Pope or Kissinger?
This Reverend gentleman was expounding Biblical prophecies. He went on to prove that the Christian Bible foretold the rise of Soviet Russia, and the Last Days. At one stage he went to the extent of proving that his Holy Book did not leave even the Pope out of its predictions. He expatiated vigorously in order to convince his audience that the “Beast 666″ mentioned in the Book of Revelation the last book of the New Testament was the POPE, who was the Vicar of Christ on earth. It is not befitting for us Muslims to enter into this controversy between the Roman Catholics and the Protestants. By the way, the latest Christian exposition of the “Beast 666″ of the Christian Bible is Dr. Henry Kissinger1. Christian scholars are ingenious and indefatigable in their efforts to prove their case.
Rev. Hiten’s lectures led me to ask that if the Bible foretold so many things – not even excluding the “Pope” and “Israel” – then surely it must have something to say about the greatest benefactor of mankind 2, the Holy Prophet Muhammed (may the peace of Allah be upon him).
As a youngster I set out to search for an answer. I met priest after priest, attended lectures, and read everything that I could lay my hands relating to the fields of Bible prophecies. Tonight I am going to narrate to you one of these interviews with a dominee3 of the Dutch Reformed Church.
1. Christian exegesists give progressive numerical values by sixes, to the English alphabet and add up to get the total 666. i.e. A=6,B=12,C=18, D=24 and so on. Progression by 6′s because the number of the Beast in the Bible is “666″. Try it for Dr.Kissinger.
2. The writer has just delivered another talk in the City Hall, Durban on the 10th December 1975 on the subject “Muhammad the Greatest”.
3. “Dominee” is the Afrikaans equivalent of priest, parson and predikant.
Lucky Thirteen
I was invited to the Transvaal1 to deliver a talk on the occasion of Birthday celebration of the Holy Prophet Muhammed. Knowing that in that province of the Republic, the Afrikaans language is widely spoken, even by my own people, I felt that I ought to acquire a smattering of this language so a s to feel a little “at home” with the people. I opened the telephone directory and began phoning the Afrikaans-speaking Churches. I indicated my purpose to the priests that I was interested in having a dialogue with them, but they all refused my request with “Plausible” excuses. No.13 was my lucky number. The thirteenth call brought me pleasure and relief. A dominee Van Heerden agreed to meet me at his home on the Saturday afternoon that I was to leave for Transvaal.
He received me on his verandah with a friendly welcome. He said if I did not mind, he would like his father-in-law from the Free State (a 70 year old man) to join us in the discussion. I did not mind. The three of us settled down in the dominee’s library.
1. One of the Provinces of the Republic of South Africa.
Why Nothing?
I posed the question: “What does the Bible say about Muhammed?” Without hesitation he answered, “Nothing!” I asked: “Why nothing? According to your interpretation the Bible have so many things to say about the rise of Soviet Russia and about the Last Days and even about the Pope of the Roman Catholics?” He said, “Yes, but there was nothing about Muhammed!” I asked again, “Why nothing? Surely this man Muhammed who had been responsible for the bringing into being a worldwide community of millions of Believers who, on his authority, believe in:
(1) The miraculous birth of Jesus,
(2) that Jesus is the Messiah, 1
(3) that he gave life to the dead by God’s permission, and that he healed those born blind and the lepers by God’s permission.
Surely this book (the Bible) must have something to say about this great Leader of men who spoke so well of Jesus and his mother Mary?” (Peace be upon them both).
The old man from the Free State replied. “My son, I have been reading the Bible for the past 50 years, and if there was any mention of him, I would have known it.”
1. The word “Messiah” comes from the Arabic and Hebr

Open Question: advanced electricity question?
ok so say i have electricity (say 1 volt, 1 ampere) running through some sort of mechanism thing (in my case its a transformer, for simplicity’s sake lets say there’s no step-up, so theoretically it should come out 1 volt 1 ampere)… but the mechanism isn’t very efficient, lets say its only 50% efficient.
Does this mean that volts would get cut in half, amperes, or both? So for example how many volts and amperes would this inefficient transformer get at the end?
on second thought this question isn’t advanced at all… -
Open Question: Dish Network – Should we get a Sanyo 720 or Sanyo 1080p HD set?
We are on a budget so we are going to get a Sanyo big screen TV from Walmart. This is in spite of all the bad things people say about Sanyo. We’ve made our decision on this brand so please don’t bother slamming it, we are are aware that it’s a third tier brand. We’ve had two Sanyo 26″ 720 LCD TVs (DP26746) for a couple of years now and we’ve been happy with them, except for having to turn the brightness all the way up.
Should we get the 50″ 720 DP50747 Plasma or the 52″ DP52848 LCD set? We plan on watching Dish Network most of the time. We have a PS3 although we won’t be watching a lot of Blue Ray discs. The black on the 52″ looked a lot blacker than on the 50″, which I suppose is a good sign.
Also is there much difference between the DP50747 and the newer DP 50749? I would have to drive an hour each way to buy the 50749 if we chose that one, would it be worth it in terms of improved features?
