Samveda I) Muhammad (pbuh) prophesised in Bhavishya Purana
1. According to Bhavishya Purana in the Prati Sarag
Parv III Khand 3 Adhay 3 Shloka 5 to 8. "A malecha (belonging to a foreign
country and speaking a foreign language) spiritual teacher will appear with his
companions. His name will be Mohammad. Raja (Bhoj) after giving this Maha
Dev Arab (of angelic disposition) a bath in the Panchgavya and the
Ganga water (i.e. purifying him of all sins) offered him the present of his
sincere devotion and showing him all reverence said, "I make obeisance to
thee. O ye! The pride of mankind, the dweller in The Prophecy clearly states: (i) The name of the Prophet as Mohammad. (ii) He will belong to (iii) Special mention is made of the companions of
the Prophet, i.e. the Sahabas. No other Prophet had as many companions as
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh). (iv) He is referred as the pride of mankind (Parbatis
nath). The Glorious Qur’an reconfirms this "And thou (standest) on an exalted standard of
character" [Al-Qur'an 68:4] "Ye have indeed in the Messenger of Allah, a
beautiful pattern (of conduct)". [Al-Qur'an 33:21] (v) He will kill the devil, i.e. abolish idol worship
and all sorts of vices. (vi) The Prophet will be given protection against his
enemy. Some people may argue that Raja Bhoj mentioned in the
prophecy lived in the 11th century C.E. 500 years after the advent of Prophet
Muhammad (pbuh) and was the descendant in the 10th generation of Raja
Shalivahan. These people fail to realise that there was not only one Raja of
the name Bhoj. The Egyptian Monarchs were called as Pharaoh and the Roman Kings
were known as Caesar, similarly the Indian Rajas were given the title of Bhoj.
There were several Raj Bhoj who came before the one in 11th Century C.E. The Prophet did not physically take a bath in the Panchgavya
and the water of 2. According to Bhavishya Purana in the Pratisarag Parv
III Khand 3 Adhay 3 Shloka 10 to 27 Maharishi Vyas has prophesised: "The Malecha have spoiled the well-known
land of the Arabs. Arya Dharma is not to be found in the country. Before
also there appeared a misguided fiend whom I had killed; he has now again
appeared being sent by a powerful enemy. To show these enemies the right path
and to give them guidance, the well-known Muhammad (pbuh), is busy in bringing
the Pishachas to the right path. O Raja, You need not go to the land of
the foolish Pishachas, you will be purified through my kindness even
where you are. At night, he of the angelic disposition, the shrewd man, in the
guise of Pishacha said to Raja Bhoj, "O Raja! Your Arya Dharma has
been made to prevail over all religions, but according to the commandments of Ishwar
Parmatma, I shall enforce the strong creed of the meat eaters. My followers
will be men circumcised, without a tail (on his head), keeping beard, creating
a revolution announcing the Aadhaan (the Muslim call for prayer) and
will be eating all lawful things. He will eat all sorts of animals except
swine. They will not seek purification from the holy shrubs, but will be
purified through warfare. On account of their fighting the irreligious nations,
they will be known as Musalmaans. I shall be the originator of this
religion of the meat-eating nations." The Prophecy states that: (i) The evil doers have corrupted the Arab land. (ii) Arya Dharma is not found in that land. (iii) The Indian Raja need not go the Arab land since
his purification will take place in (iv) The coming Prophet will attest the truth of the
Aryan faith, i.e. Monotheism and will reform the misguided people. (v) The Prophet’s followers will be circumcised. They
will be without a tail on the head and bear a beard and will create a great
revolution. (vi) They will announce the Aadhaan, i.e. ‘the
Muslim call for prayer’. (vii) He will only eat lawful things and animals but
will not eat pork. The Qur’an confirms this in no less than 4 different places: In Surah Al-Baqarah chapter 2 verse 173 In Surah Al-Maidah chapter 5 verse 3 In Surah Al-Anam chapter 6 verse 145 In Surah Al-Nahl chapter 16 verse 115 "Forbidden to you for food are dead meat, blood,
flesh of swine, and that on which hath been invoked the name of other than
Allah". (viii) They will not purify with grass like the
Hindus but by means of sword they will fight their irreligious people. (ix) They will be called musalmaan. (x) They will be a meat-eating nation. The eating of herbivorous animals is confirmed by the
Qur’an in Surah Maidah, chapter 5 verse 1 and in Surah Muminun chapter 23 verse
21 3. According to Bhavishya Purana, Parv - III Khand 1
Adhay 3 Shloka 21-23: "Corruption and persecution are found in seven
sacred cities of Kashi, etc. The Qur’an confirms this in Surah Taubah chapter 9
verse 33 and in Surah Al Saff chapter 61 verse 9: "It is He who hath sent His Messenger with
Guidance and the Religion of Truth, to proclaim it over all religion, even
though the Pagans may detest (it)". A similar message is given in Surah Fatah chapter 48
verses 28 ending with, "and enough is Allah as a witness". II Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) Prophesised in
Atharvaveda 1. In the 20th book of Atharvaveda Hymn 127 Some
Suktas (chapters) are known as Kuntap Sukta. Kuntap means the consumer of
misery and troubles. Thus meaning the message of peace and safety and if translated
in Arabic means Islam. Kuntap also means hidden glands in the abdomen. These
mantras are called so probably because their true meaning was hidden and was to
be revealed in future. Its hidden meaning is also connected with the navel or
the middle point of this earth. Makkah is called the Ummul Qur’a the mother of
the towns or the naval of the earth. In many revealed books it was the first
house of Divine worship where God Almighty gave spiritual nourishment to the
world. The Qur’an says in Surah Ali-Imran chapter 3, verse 96: "The first house (of worship) appointed for men
was that at Bakkah (Makkah) full of blessings and of guidance and for all kinds
of beings". Thus Kuntap stands for Makkah or Bakkah. Several people have translated these Kuntap Suktas
like M. Bloomfield, Prof. Ralph Griffith, Pandit Rajaram, Pandit Khem Karan,
etc. The main points mentioned in the Kuntap Suktas i.e.
in Atharvaveda book 20 Hymn 127 verses 1-13 are: Mantra 1 He is Narashansah or the praised one (Muhammad). He
is Kaurama: the prince of peace or the emigrant, who is safe, even amongst a
host of 60,090 enemies. b) Mantra 2 He is a camel-riding Rishi, whose chariot touches the
heaven. c) Mantra 3 He is Mamah Rishi who is given a hundred gold coins,
ten chaplets (necklaces), three hundred good steeds and ten thousand cows. d) Mantra 4 Vachyesv rebh. ‘Oh! ye who glorifies’. (i) The Sanskrit word Narashansah means ‘the praised
one’, which is the literal translation of the Arabic word Muhammad (pbuh). The Sanskrit word Kaurama means ‘one who spreads and
promotes peace’. The holy Prophet was the ‘Prince of Peace’ and he preached
equality of human kind and universal brotherhood. Kaurama also means an
emigrant. The Prophet migrated from Makkah to Madinah and was thus also an
Emigrant. (ii) He will be protected from 60,090 enemies, which
was the population of Makkah. The Prophet would ride a camel. This clearly
indicates that it cannot be an Indian Rishi, since it is forbidden for a
Brahman to ride a camel according to the Sacred Books of the East, volume 25,
Laws of Manu pg. 472. According to Manu Smirti chapter 11 verse 202, "A
Brahman is prohibited from riding a camel or an ass and to bathe naked. He
should purify himself by suppressing his breath". (iii) (a) This mantra gave the Rishi's name as Mamah.
No rishi in (b) He is given 100 gold coins, which refers to the
believers and the earlier companions of the Prophet during his turbulent Makkan
life. Later on due to persecution they migrated from Makkah to Abysinia. Later
when Prophet migrated to Madinah all of them joined him in Madinah. (c) The 10 chaplets or necklaces were the 10 best
companions of the Holy Prophet (pbuh) known as Ashra-Mubbashshira (10 bestowed
with good news). These were foretold in this world of their salvation in the
hereafter i.e. they were given the good news of entering paradise by the
Prophet’s own lips and after naming each one he said "in (d) The Sanskrit word Go is derived from Gaw which
means ‘to go to war’. A cow is also called Go and is a symbol of war as well as
peace. The 10,000 cows refer to the 10,000 companions who accompanied the
Prophet (pbuh) when he entered Makkah during Fateh Makkah which was a unique
victory in the history of mankind in which there was no blood shed. The 10,000
companions were pious and compassionate like cows and were at the same time
strong and fierce and are described in the Holy Quran in Surah Fatah: "Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah; and those
who are with him are strong against unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst
each other." [Al-Qur'an 48:29] (iv) This mantra calls the Prophet as Rebh which
means one who praises, which when translated into Arabic is Ahmed, which is
another name for the Holy Prophet (pbuh). 2. Battle of the Allies described in the Vedas. It is mentioned in Atharvaveda Book XX Hymn 21 verse
6, "Lord of the truthful! These liberators drink these feats of bravery
and the inspiring songs gladdened thee in the field of battle. When thou
renders vanquished without fight the ten thousand opponents of the praying one,
the adoring one." (i) This Prophecy of the Veda describes the
well-known battle of Ahzab or the battle of the Allies during the time of
Prophet Muhammed. The Prophet was victorious without an actual conflict which
is mentioned in the Qur’an in Surah Ahzab: "When the believers saw the confederate forces
they said, "This is what Allah and His Messenger had promised us and Allah
and His Messenger told us what was true." And it only added to their faith
and their zeal in obedience." [Al-Qur'an 33:22] (ii) The Sanskrit word karo in the Mantra means the
‘praying one’ which when translated into Arabic means ‘Ahmed’, the second name of Prophet
Muhammed (pbuh). iii) The 10,000 opponents mentioned in the Mantra
were the enemies of the Prophet and the Muslims were only 3000 in number. iv) The last words of the Mantra aprati ni
bashayah means the defeat was given to the enemies without an actual fight. 3. The enemies’ defeat in the conquest of Makkah is
mentioned in Atharvaveda book 20 Hymn 21 verse no 9: "You have O Indra, overthrown 20 kings and
60,099 men with an outstripping Chariot wheel who came to fight the praised one
or far famed (Muhammad) orphan." i) The population of Makkah at the time of Prophet’s
advent was nearly 60,000. ii) There were several clans in Makkah each having
its own chief. Totally there were about 20 chiefs to rule the population of
Makkah. iii) An Abandhu meaning a helpless man who was
far-famed and ‘praised one’. Muhammad (pbuh) overcame his enemies with the help
of God. III Muhammad (pbuh) prophesised in the Rigveda A similar prophecy is also found in Rigveda Book I,
Hymn 53 verse 9: The Sanskrit word used is Sushrama, which
means praiseworthy or well praised which in Arabic means Muhammad (pbuh). IV Muhummad (pbuh) is also prophesised in the
Samveda Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is also prophesised in the
Samveda Book II Hymn 6 verse 8: "Ahmed acquired from his Lord the knowledge of
eternal law. I received light from him just as from the sun." The Prophecy
confirms: i) The name of the Prophet as Ahmed since Ahmed is an
Arabic name. Many translators misunderstood it to be Ahm at hi and
translated the mantra as "I alone have acquired the real wisdom of my
father". ii) Prophet was given eternal law, i.e. the Shariah. iii) The Rishi was enlightened by the Shariah of
Prophet Muhammad. The Qur’an says in Surah Saba chapter 34 verse 28 "We have not sent thee but as a universal
(Messenger) to men, giving them glad tidings and warning them (against sin),
but most men understand not." [Al-Qur'an 34:28] From: "Peace
