SAW - sallalhahu alaihi wassalam
Pbuh- peace be upon him
IMPORTANT:
Before I start with evidence from the bible, about the glad tiding of Muhammad. I must make the everyone aware, that Muslims do not believe that the bible is in tact to as it was originally put together. Muslims believe that the bible has been corrupted, as history also tells us(see council of nicea). Although we do not put trust in the bible, some parts of the bible remain in its original form. Some of the evidences I will be sharing could be some of the verses that have been altered, or maybe the verses that I will post are actually the few unaltered verses of the bible.
********************
Narrated by Ibn Ishaq, Salama bin Salaam bin Waqsh, said a Jewish neighbor in Medinah told his family about the Resurrection, the day of judgement, the reckoning, and heaven and hell. He said that to polytheist who did not believe him. They asked him "what proof is there?", the Jew told them that a prophet will come from these lands(Arabia) and he pointed toward Makkah and Yemen. They asked when he will come, the Jew pointed at Salama who was the youngest and said if he lives a natural life he will see him. Salama lived to see Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon Him).
Even though the bible has changed through out the years, there are still Glad Tidings of the coming of Muhammad PBUH left in the bible.
In Deuteronomy verse 18:18 this verse says
"18. I(God) will raise up for them(Israelies) a prophet like you(Moses PBUH) from among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him"
This verse fits Muhammad PBUH like a glove, and fits no one else. Christian say this verse refers to Jesus PBUH. But Muhammad PBUH resembles Moses PBUH. Moses and Muhammad PBUT, both had parents while Jesus PBUH only had a mother. Both Moses and Muhammad PBUT had children, Jesus PBUH did not. Moses PBUH was born in a natural way so was Muhammad PBUH, while Jesus PBUH was born in a miraculous fashion. Moses and Muhammad PBUT were both accepted by their nation, but Jesus PBUH was not accepted by his nation(as stated in the bible "He Jesus came to his nation, and he was accepted not"). Moses and Muhammad PBUT were rulers on earth, they in forced punishment, Jesus PBUH did not rule. Muhammad and Moses PBUT came with a new law(The Quran, and The Torah), Jesus PBUH came to follow the law of Moses PBUH. Moses PBUH has led his people on hijra(migration)(from Egypt to the Holy Land) so has Muhammad PBUH(from Makkah to Medinah), Jesus PBUH did not. Both Moses and Muhammad PBUT both won battles against their enemies, while Jesus PBUH did not fight. Both Moses and Muhammad PBUT died a natural death, while Jesus PBUH was elevated(or as Christians think he was killed). Both Moses and Muhammad PBUH are buried in the ground, while Jesus PBUH was not. Muhammad and Moses PBUT both became prophets at the age of 40, while Jesus PBUH became a prophet at the age of 30. No one came after Moses PBUH that has resembled him like Muhammad PBUH.
This verse does not speak of an Jewish prophet because of Deuteronomy verse 18:34 says no one from among the Jews is like Moses PBUH. There is only one nation that are the brothers of the Jews, and it is the Arabs. The Prophecy in Deuteronomy which says "I will put my words in his mouth" The Qur'an says the same thing about Muhammad PBUH, while the bible was written by many different people. They say it was inspired by god.
There is another Isaiah 29:11-18 which says.
"11 And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed:
12 And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned."
