Who a prophet is?

Mouthpiece of God:

A prophet is a mouthpiece of God. A prophet is a man or woman who can touch the heart of God and bring the message of God for people, for himself/herself, for his family and friends, for his community, for his nation and for the whole world. Take the example of Moses. Whenever people complained to Moses, Moses went to God and asked and brought a message for them from God. This is a prophet who brings a heavenly solution for people. If a person thinks he/she is a prophet and never heard the voice of God then how is it possible that he/she can be a prophet?

Brings heavenly solution:

Moses and the Israelites were standing at the brink of the Red Sea and the Egyptian army was following them. From both sides, they saw nothing but death. In that situation, they desperately needed a heavenly solution. Moses said to the Israelites, in Exodus 14:13-14, "Do not be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of the LORD, which He will accomplish for you today. For the Egyptians whom you see today, you shall see again no more forever. The LORD will fight for you, and you shall hold your peace."

And, we read in Exodus 14:15-16, "And the LORD said to Moses, 'Why do you cry to Me? Tell the children of Israel to go forward. But lift up your rod, and stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.'"

Yes, a prophet brings heavenly solution and heavenly word from God for people.
Again, we read in Exodus 15:23-25, "Now when they came to Marah, they could not drink the waters of Marah, for they were bitter. Therefore, the name of it was called Marah. And the people complained against Moses, saying, 'What shall we drink?' So, he cried out to the LORD, and the LORD showed him a tree. When he cast it into the waters, the waters were made sweet. There He made a statute and an ordinance for them. And there He tested them,"

When the people complained to Moses and said, "We do not have water to drink because it is bitter water," immediately Moses went and asked God what to do now? And the Lord God showed him a tree and when he cast it in to the waters, they could drink that water. Yes, this is a prophet who brings the exact word from God for a particular situation and tells people what to do.

But contrary to it we do not see any of these qualities in Mohammed. God never spoke to Mohammed, and he never brought any heavenly solution for anybody. Every time Mohammed got revelation, he got it from the so called angel Gabriel.

Prophet can scan through you:

A prophet does not need to ask who is right or who is wrong, because a prophet can scan through a person by the Holy Spirit. God can show the exact thing to a prophet, but Hadith says that Mohammed asked many people whether his beloved wife Aisha committed adultery or not, as we read in Hadith Volume 3, Book 48, Number 829.

This passage talks about Aisha who journeyed with Mohammed, and they approached the city of Medina. Mohammed ordered them to proceed at night. When the order of setting off was given, Aisha walked till she was past the army to answer the call of nature. After finishing, she returned to the camp to depart with the others and suddenly realized that her necklace was missing. So, she returned to look for it and was delayed because of that. The people who used to carry her on the camel, came to her tent and put it on the back of the camel, thinking that she was in it. At that time, she was a young lady. They set the camel moving and proceeded on. She found her necklace after the army had gone, and came to her camp to find nobody. So, she went to the place where she used to stay, thinking that they would discover her absence and come back in her search. While in that state, she felt sleepy and slept. At morning, Safwan bin Mu'attal As-Sulami Adh-Dhakwani, who was behind the army, reached her abode. He made his camel kneel down and made Aisha sit on the camel. Then they walked until they reached the army who had halted to take rest at midday.

Then further the Hadith says that some people accused Aisha falsely for committing adultery. After that they returned to Medina, and Aisha became ill for one month while the people were spreading the forged statements of the false accusers. She was feeling during her ailment as if she was not receiving the usual kindness from Mohammed that she used to receive from him when she got sick. But he would come, greet her and say, "How is that girl?" Aisha did not know anything of what was going on till she recovered from her ailment and went out with Um Mistah to the Manasi that they used to answer the call of nature.
Aisha heard the rumors about her when she went out for a walk with Um Mistah bint Ruhm. Then she went to her parent's house and she wept. Here Mohammed thought of divorcing her so he counseled with Ali bin Abu Talib and Usama bin Zaid. Usama bin Zaid said what he knew of the good reputation of his wives and added, "O Allah's Apostle! Keep you wife, for, by Allah, we know nothing about her but good." Ali binAbu Talib said, "O Allah's Apostle! Allah has no imposed restrictions on you, and there are many women other than she, yet you may ask the woman-servant who will tell you the truth." On that Allah's Apostle called Buraira and said, "O Burair. Did you ever see anything which roused your suspicions about her?" Buraira said, "No, by Allah Who has sent you with the Truth, I have never seen in her anything faulty except that she is a girl of immature age, who sometimes sleeps and leaves the dough for the goats to eat."
When Mohammed heard from these three or four people, he said, "'Who will support me to punish that person ('Abdullah bin Ubai bin Salul) who has hurt me by slandering the reputation of my family? By Allah, I know nothing about my family but good, and they have accused a person about whom I know nothing except good, and he never entered my house except in my company."
In this passage, we see that Mohammed decided to divorce his wife after hearing rumors. We read further in the same Hadith that Mohammed got revelation saying, "Aisha, Allah has declared your innocence." Is this revelation or opinion of people? Mohammed was making decisions after listening to people around him. A prophet does not need to ask his neighbors or people about his family matters. A prophet does not need opinions of people, but he/she can look straight inside the heart of a person. A prophet can ask God directly, and God can show the real thing to him.

We read in the Bible about Gehazi, servant of Elisha about whom Elisha a prophet of God could tell exactly what he did.

When Naaman came to Elisha for healing of leprosy and when Naaman went and took a bath according to the words of Elisha and got complete healing, he came back to Elisha and wanted to give some gift, but Elisha refused to take anything. We read in 2 Kings 5:21-26, that Gehazi pursued Naaman. When Naaman saw him running after him, he got down from the chariot to meet him, and said, "Is all well?" And Gehazi said, "All is well. My master has sent me, saying, 'Indeed, just now two young men of the sons of the prophets have come to me from the mountains of Ephraim. Please give them a talent of silver and two changes of garments.'" So, Naaman said, "Please, take two talents." And he urged him, and bound two talents of silver in two bags, with two changes of garments, and handed them to two of his servants; and they carried them on ahead of him. When he came to the citadel, he took them from their hand, and stored them away in the house; then he let the men go, and they departed. Now he went in and stood before his master. Elisha said to him, "Where did you go, Gehazi?" And he said, "Your servant did not go anywhere." Then he said to him, "Did not my heart go with you when the man turned back from his chariot to meet you? Is it time to receive money and to receive clothing, olive groves and vineyards, sheep and oxen, male and female servants?"

See the difference between Elisha and Mohammed? Elisha was a prophet of God. The Quran and Hadith say that Mohammed was a prophet, but the difference was Elisha saw in a vision what Gehazi did, how he went after Naaman and asked for gifts, etc. But contrary to it, Mohammed was asking others about his wife, whether she was wrong or right.

Why a prophet could not know what was the real thing behind those rumors about his own wife? I do not see any other reason except Allah is different from the God of the Bible, and Mohammed had no qualities of a prophet. Again, this proves that God of the Bible and Allah are different and their qualities are totally different and their messages are totally contradictory to each other. If they are the same God, then they should agree with each other and show the same qualities and give the same message.

Is Mohammed the Final prophet?

Many centuries have come and gone, and of course, the world is not the same as it was in the beginning. Just after 20 or 30 years, if you visit the same place where you grew up, you will wonder whether you are in the same place. Everything is changing rapidly. Science and modern technology has transformed old-fashioned things, but there is only one thing that is not changing; i.e., the God of the Bible. It is His quality that does not change. He is the same yesterday, today and forever. What He was in the beginning, he is today also. He is the same. There is no change in Him, even a bit.

If He could walk with Adam in the Garden of Eden, then He can walk with us today also. If He could walk with Moses and the Israelites, then He can walk with us today also. If He could talk to Abraham and be his friend, then He can talk with us and can be our friend today also. If He could wipe away the tears and heal the broken hearted people then, He can do the same today also. Why? It is because He does not change but remains the same forever.
But when we come to the Quran and Hadith, we see that Mohammed declared himself to be the Last Prophet and the Quran as the last revelation. Both the Quran and Hadith say that Mohammed was the last and final prophet. The Quran says, in The Clans, The Coalition, The Combined Forces 33:40, "Muhammad is not the father of any of your men, but (he is) the Messenger of Allah, and the Seal of the Prophets: and Allah has full knowledge of all things."

In his last sermon he said, "O People, no prophet or apostle will come after me and no new faith will be born. Reason well, therefore, O People, and understand my words that I convey to you. I leave behind me two things, the Quran and my example, the Sunnah, and if you follow these you will never go astray."

By declaring this, Mohammed declared that God is dead because God will never speak again nor send His prophets or apostles. By declaring this, Mohammed blasphemed God, and by saying this, he made the "unchanging" God as "changed." But I want to tell you that it is possible that Mohammed is correct in his prediction because Allah and the God of the Bible is not the same God. The God of the Bible is an unchanging God, and that's why the Bible says, in 1 John 4:1-2, "Beloved, do not believe every spirit, but test the spirits, whether they are of God; because many false prophets have gone out into the world. By this you know the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of God,"

The God of the Bible never said that He will send a Last prophet, but He said that we will come across both true and false prophets, but we have to test every spirit and know whether they are from God or not. Not only does Mohammed not show any qualities of prophet. " If Allah is the same God of the Bible, then why he does not know about the prophet whom He sent? The most amazing part is no Muslim knows why they call Mohammed a prophet when there are no qualities of prophet in him.


Is Holy Spirit "Ahmad" or "Mohammed"?
The Ranks, Battle Array, Sura 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 Messenger to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad.' But when he came to them with Clear Signs, they said, 'this is evident sorcery!'"

On the one side, Allah and Muslims claim that Allah is the same God of the Bible, and that Jesus was sent by Allah, but on the other side Allah does not know what Jesus promised to send in this world after His return to the Father. If Allah sent Jesus to this world, then why Allah was not aware of what Jesus promised to send after His ascension to heaven? Come, let us look to the Bible for what Jesus promised for His followers.

Jesus said, in John 14:16-18, "And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever; the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you. I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you."

Again, Jesus said, in John 14:26-27, "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

Again, Jesus said, in John 15:26 "But when the Helper comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me."

We can see from the above verses that Jesus promised the Holy Spirit or Spirit of Truth for those who believe on His name. No human being can claim himself/herself as the Spirit of Truth because God is the absolute truth and His Spirit is the Spirit of Truth.

The same verse further says, "The Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father...." But as we saw before, that Mohammed denied the fatherhood of God so there is no question of Mohammed' proceeding from the father.

The Bible also says in John 14:16 says, "He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever;" and the eighteenth verse says, "He dwells with you and will be in you." So, we can understand that Jesus did not promise to send a messenger but the Holy Spirit who was to come and dwell in us. A man or woman cannot come and dwell in us but the Quran says that Jesus promised to send Ahmad (this is the name of Mohammed the founder of Islam).

The above verse also says, "He may abide with you forever." We all know that Mohammed died and is no more in this world, so how is it possible that he may abide with us forever? It is not possible for a human being to abide with us forever, but it is possible only with God. He can come down and live with us. He can abide with us and be in us. So, obviously, Jesus did not promise a fallible human being but infallible Spirit of God, who is everlasting to everlasting.

We find in John 14:18 that Jesus said, "I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you." When the Holy Spirit comes in our lives, He gives comfort and peace in our hearts. In the time of trouble and in the time of tears, He comforts us. That is the reason why Jesus said, in John 14:27, "Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid." Only God can give us peace and comfort which this world cannot give, which others cannot give, so of course, we do not see as if it was spoken for any person but this was spoken for the Spirit of God.

Jesus also said, in John 14:26, "He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you."

Jesus said even more about the Holy Spirit: "when He will come, He will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you." But we know that Mohammed or Ahmad did not say what Jesus said. Jesus proclaimed again and again that He came to give His life for His sheep, to die and to rise again, etc. But Mohammed said that Jesus did not die on the cross. He also said that it appeared as if Jesus was crucified but actually, He did not die on the cross. Also, we can see a totally contradictory message in the Quran that Jesus never proclaimed. If Ahmad or Mohammed was the messenger that Jesus promised for us, then he should have brought to our remembrance what Jesus had said. Jesus did not promise to send a messenger with a new message, did He? No!! So, of course, Ahmad is not the promised Holy Spirit.

Jesus also said, in John 16:13, "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak; and He will tell you things to come."
This verse tells us that when Holy Spirit will come He will guide us in all truth ... and will tell us things to come. Only God is truth and only God can lead us in truth. A man or woman who never knew truth, or a person who is not absolute truth cannot lead us in truth. For example, if you know the direction to go to a certain place, then only you can show the way to others but if you do not know the direction, you cannot show the way. The same thing is with Mohammed, who was a human being and was who searching for truth and the way until his last breath. It is impossible for a man who never knew truth to show us the way of truth. But Jesus promised a helper who will guide us in all truth--none other than Holy Spirit or Spirit of Truth or Spirit of God Himself.

This verse also says that, "He will tell you things to come." Yes, the Holy Spirit will not only lead you and guide you, but also He will tell you the things that are ahead of you. He will predict your future. Isn't it wonderful that Holy Spirit will come and dwell in us and with us so that we may know what is ahead of us? Yes, no man can predict your future, but God can, and when the Holy Spirit comes and abides in us, He shows us what is ahead of us.

John 16:14, "He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you."

Jesus said, in the above verse that the Holy Spirit would glorify Him. But Mohammed never gave glory to Jesus nor glorified Him in anyway, but he (Mohammed) discredited the work of Lord Jesus Christ that was done on the cruel cross for my, and for your, salvation. He abrogated the message of the precious blood that was shed on the cruel cross so that we may come out of our sins and live in peace with Him eternally. Oh, and Mohammed ignored this most precious and important work of Christ. How it is possible that if Jesus sent Mohammed he could forget the most important thing? Again, it proves nothing, but Mohammed is not the promised Holy Spirit, and Allah is not the God of the Bible because all these verses show lack of knowledge with Allah in this matter.
And the final thought: Jesus promised to send the "Holy Spirit." But the Quran and Hadith both tell us that Mohammed was not holy or could not live a holy life. In the Quran and Hadith many a times Mohammed asked forgiveness of his sins to Allah.God is truth and His Spirit is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God Himself and it cannot be human. Mohammed blasphemed God by declaring "Ahmad" or "Mohammed" as the Holy Spirit.
