MUHAMMAD ﷺ AND MADINAH IN THE BIBLE (2019-03-05) #

0:00:05 the 42nd chapter of the book of ice
0:00:09 clearly foretells the coming of an
0:00:11 Arabian prophet specifically Prophet
0:00:14 Muhammad peace and blessings be upon him
0:00:16 I say it describes itself as a prophecy
0:00:19 about the future God states that the
0:00:22 former things have taken place and new
0:00:24 things I declare God starts the chapter
0:00:27 by drawing our attention to a very
0:00:29 special person that he was send he
0:00:31 describes this person as my servant whom
0:00:34 I uphold my chosen one in whom I delight
0:00:38 at least three of the names of the
0:00:41 Prophet Muhammad I mentioned servant
0:00:43 chosen one and in whom I delight I say
0:00:49 it is originally written in Hebrew
0:00:51 Arabic and Hebrew sure a lot of common
0:00:53 words because they are both Semitic
0:00:55 languages I say it uses the Hebrew word
0:00:58 Abed for servant the Arabic word for
0:01:02 servant is Abaddon Prophet Muhammad is
0:01:04 known as God's servant in Arabic
0:01:07 Abdullah chosen one is Mustafa in Arabic
0:01:12 this is another of the names of the
0:01:14 Prophet Muhammad the one in whom God
0:01:16 delights in shows that this person is
0:01:19 beloved to God Habib Allah in Arabic
0:01:22 which means beloved of God also happens
0:01:25 to be one of the Prophet Mohammad's
0:01:27 names
0:01:30 and I say God also reveals the location
0:01:33 of this special person he states let the
0:01:36 wilderness and it's towns raise their
0:01:38 voices let the settlements where kadar
0:01:41 lives rejoice out of all the nations on
0:01:45 earth that God inspired Isaiah to
0:01:47 mention he chose to highlight Kedar
0:01:50 location so we should pay special
0:01:52 attention throughout the Bible ke Dodd
0:01:56 and his sons are linked to Arabia for
0:01:58 example The Book of Ezekiel tells us
0:02:00 that Arabia and all the princes of Kedar
0:02:04 were your favorite dealers and lambs
0:02:06 Rams and goats in these they did
0:02:09 business with you
0:02:14 and I say a God goes on to narrow the
0:02:17 location down further to a specific city
0:02:20 within Arabia
0:02:21 he states that the people of Silla
0:02:24 should sing for joy let them shout from
0:02:27 the mountaintops the place Allah
0:02:29 pinpoints the exact location in Arabia
0:02:32 the place being spoken of is the city of
0:02:35 Medina in Saudi Arabia because Salah is
0:02:38 the name of a famous mountain in Medina
0:02:43 Medina was the city of the Prophet
0:02:46 Mohammed
0:02:46 an important point worth mentioning is
0:02:49 that historically we know there was a
0:02:51 presence of various Jewish tribes in
0:02:54 Medina before the advent of the Prophet
0:02:56 Muhammad both Jewish historians and
0:02:59 Islamic history records this fact the
0:03:02 question then arises why were the
0:03:04 numerous Jewish tribes within Medina the
0:03:08 answer is that the Leonard Jews were
0:03:10 aware of this prophecy in Isaiah and
0:03:12 were anxiously awaiting the coming of a
0:03:16 new prophet Islamic history records the
0:03:19 fact that whenever a dispute arose
0:03:21 between the Jews and the Arabs in Medina
0:03:24 the Jews used to taunt their pagan Arab
0:03:27 neighbors by saying when our prophet
0:03:30 arrives we shall obliterate you the
0:03:34 Quran also affirms this God says is it
0:03:38 not a sign to them that the learned men
0:03:40 of the children of Israel knew it as
0:03:42 true
0:03:47 in i say 'god informs us that the
0:03:50 special person will bring something new
0:03:52 mankind is told that we will sing to the
0:03:55 Lord a new song his praise from the ends
0:03:58 of the earth the statement a new song
0:04:00 means a new law a new way of worship
0:04:03 this is exactly what Islam represents
0:04:06 the emphasis on the new song here is
0:04:09 singing the praise of God all over the
0:04:11 earth the Quran opens with the statement
0:04:13 praise be to God Lord of the Worlds and
0:04:16 is recited by Muslims all over the world
0:04:19 during prayers every day the new song
0:04:22 cannot refer to Jesus because he did not
0:04:26 bring about anything new rather he
0:04:28 confirmed the law of Moses that was
0:04:30 already there in the Gospel of Matthew
0:04:32 Jesus said think not I am come to
0:04:34 destroy the law or the prophets I am not
0:04:37 come to destroy but fulfil Jesus obeyed
0:04:41 and followed the law of Moses throughout
0:04:43 his life Jesus didn't sing a new song he
0:04:46 sang the same song of Moses the Torah
0:04:49 moreover the disciples of Jesus also
0:04:51 follow the law of Moses even after Jesus
0:04:54 departed in the book of Acts we are told
0:04:56 that the disciples look to the Torah for
0:04:58 guidance
0:04:59 for the law of Moses has been preached
0:05:01 in every city from the earliest times
0:05:07 in i say 'god emphasizes the universal
0:05:11 mission of the coming person by
0:05:13 mentioning that he will be made a
0:05:15 covenant all the people and a light for
0:05:18 the Gentiles Gentiles means non-jews the
0:05:22 Quran confirms the Prophet Muhammad
0:05:24 peace be upon him was sent to the whole
0:05:26 of mankind Jews and Gentiles alike in
0:05:29 the Quran God tells us we have sent you
0:05:32 a prophet as a bearer of glad tidings
0:05:34 and a Warner for the whole of mankind
0:05:37 but most people have no knowledge the
0:05:40 verse in Isaiah can not apply to Jesus
0:05:43 because in the Gospel of Matthew Jesus
0:05:45 said I was sent only to the lost sheep
0:05:48 of Israel and I say a God further states
0:05:51 that he will lead the blind byways they
0:05:53 have not known along unfamiliar paths I
0:05:56 will guide them the pagan Arabs at the
0:05:59 time of the Prophet Mohammed fit this
0:06:00 description perfectly because they had
0:06:03 not been sent a messenger prior to
0:06:05 Muhammad the Quran bears witness to this
0:06:07 God states that Muhammad was sent to
0:06:10 Warner people to whom no Warner has come
0:06:12 before the verson I say cannot apply to
0:06:16 Jesus because his people the Israelites
0:06:19 had already received a multitude of
0:06:21 prophets from God in Isaiah God
0:06:25 emphasizes that this special person will
0:06:27 be sent to those who trust in idols who
0:06:31 say to images you are our gods the whole
0:06:35 of Arabia at the start of Muhammad's
0:06:37 prophethood consisted of idol
0:06:39 worshippers again this cannot be a
0:06:41 reference to Jesus because his people
0:06:43 the Israelites were monotheists and not
0:06:46 Island worshipers
0:06:48 moreover Jesus explicitly told his
0:06:52 disciples to stay away from the
0:06:54 idol-worshipping Gentiles the exact
0:06:56 opposite of what God prophesized in
0:06:59 Isaiah the Gospel of Matthew tells us
0:07:01 that these twelve Jesus sent out with
0:07:04 the following instructions do not go
0:07:06 among the Gentiles
0:07:09 in Isaiah God states that this special
0:07:11 person will be a warrior and will go
0:07:14 forth as a mighty man he shall stir up
0:07:17 jealousy like a man of war he shall cry
0:07:20 yay roar he shall prevail against his
0:07:23 enemies throughout history God has dealt
0:07:26 sternly with those who are sent guidance
0:07:28 and persist in disbelief Prophet
0:07:31 Muhammad peace be upon him had to engage
0:07:32 in many battles with the
0:07:35 idol-worshipping enemies of God and
0:07:36 ultimately prevailed against them by
0:07:39 comparison Jesus did not triumph over
0:07:42 his enemies according to Christians he
0:07:44 was crucified by them moreover Jesus
0:07:46 wasn't interested in fighting he was not
0:07:49 a man of war he was a pacifist according
0:07:52 to the Bible he said such things as for
0:07:55 all who draw the sword will die by the
0:07:57 sword and my kingdom is not of this
0:08:00 world if my kingdom were of this world
0:08:02 then would my servants fight
0:08:08 in Isaiah God gives us a list of
0:08:11 momentous achievements for this special
0:08:13 person chief of these is that the idol
0:08:16 worshipers will be turned back in utter
0:08:18 shame not only did the Prophet Muhammad
0:08:21 conquer Mecca the pagan capital of
0:08:23 Arabia but by the end of his life in
0:08:26 just 23 short years of prophethood
0:08:29 Arabia had shunned idol worship and now
0:08:32 worshipped the one true God of Abraham
0:08:35 this cannot apply to Jesus as it was
0:08:38 Christians themselves who were
0:08:40 humiliated and greatly ashamed for
0:08:43 hundreds of years after Jesus they were
0:08:45 persecuted at the hands of the Roman
0:08:47 Empire who are Idol worshipers they
0:08:50 executed some of the Apostles of Jesus
0:08:52 such as Peter and Paul Christians were
0:08:55 tortured and even fed to the Lions
0:08:58 finally I say a closes with an
0:09:01 admonishment from God here you deaf look
0:09:05 you blind and see you have seen many
0:09:08 things but you pay no attention your
0:09:11 ears are open but you do not listen
0:09:13 which of you will listen to this or pay
0:09:16 close attention in time to come it seems
0:09:19 clear that a deaf and blind God is
0:09:21 talking about in this verse are those
0:09:24 who reject Prophet Muhammad peace be
0:09:25 upon him who among you will heed God by
0:09:28 acknowledging him who will listen and
0:09:30 pay close attention in time to come
