Part Four: Muhammed,
Prophet or Pretender?

There are three legs upon which Islam stands. These are: 1. The Koran, 2. Allah, and 3. Muhammed. Like a three-legged milking stool, if one is broken off, the whole thing should fall down. Having dealt with the Koran and Allah, we now find that the milking stool is down to one leg, and, as some old Missouri farmers will tell you, there are such things as one-legged milking stools. A clever farmer provides the other two legs by using his own legs, and the stool works, though there is a constant struggle to stay in balance.

We have seen that Islam is very vulnerable in its puerile and contradictory Koran. Allah also turns out to be a fraud; nevertheless, the Mullahs will prop up the Islamic stool by sheer force in the hope that Muhammed will survive scrutiny. With God's help, I shall now knock the last leg off of the stool of Islam. I shall avoid stealth; rather, I shall simply quote Muhammed, and give you the known history of the man. You may then decide if you wish to follow this alleged prophet.

The Hadith will be used heavily since they show the real Muhammed, who is well concealed to those who study only the Koran. Again, I remind you that the Hadith, or sayings of Muhammed, are 100% authoritative, since the Mullahs use them to control and guide the everyday lives of all Muslims worldwide.

Also, to my Muslim reader, please bear with me. I know that many of these sayings in the Hadith have been hidden from you, but it is urgent that you see just what kind of prophet you are following. If you are a devout Muslim, this will be the hardest part of this book for you, but it can also be the way to finally be liberated from the deception of Islam. May God give you light.

To you "scholars" and Christian missionaries to Muslims, I must explain something. Every author writing about Islam, and the vast majority of missionaries to Muslims, compare Muhammed to Jesus Christ. I shall not lower Jesus to the level of Muhammed. Jesus Christ was, and remains, God incarnate, so there is no basis for comparison, nor is it fair to Muhammed. Rather; Muhammed is supposed to be a true prophet, so I shall compare him only with the Bible prophets. Jesus Christ will be Muhammed's judge as we end many sections with Jesus' words of judgment.

If you "scholars" can set aside your presuppositions from your seminaries, you may learn something from this exercise, and you will have put Christ back in the unique place He claims in the Word-- the Savior and Judge of all men.

CHAPTER SEVENTEEN:

Muhammed's Claims for himself

All prophets must establish who they are and where they came from. If they are prophets they must be very convincing in order to get the attention of the potential followers. A prophet who calls men to himself alone is called a guru. A prophet who calls men to a supreme being is called a true prophet, or "prophet of the god, whomever." Islam's first pillar is to declare the faith. That is done by a single statement, "There is one god Allah, and Muhammed is the prophet of Allah." Is Muhammed a true prophet of God, as he claimed? We shall soon see.

H.G. Wells says that Muhammed claimed that the prophets before him, particularly Abraham and Jesus, were divine teachers, but he, Muhammed, was the crowning and final prophet who completed the line of prophets. The reason Muhammed failed to include Buddha, Krishna, and the Vedas is because he was isolated from the rest of the world by his Arab geography. (FOOTNOTE 1:  169 / 478 / 41; Koran 68:4; 33:21   Remember, each new part of the book begins again from 1.)

We note that all modern-day prophets made similar claims of being the last and the best. Montinus, circa 250 AD, claimed to be a Christian prophet. He had quite a following until Christ failed to come back by his man-made schedule. Joseph Smith, who encouraged his men to marry an old maid's sanitarium, claimed to be the last and the best of the prophets. Charles Taz Russell, a lazy loser of a salesman, founded the Jehovah's Witnesses, and claimed the same, as did Rajneesh, Jim Jones, Father Divine, and Willy Frampton. (Willy prophesied on Pershing Square, in downtown Los Angeles, in the 1960s-- something about 35-foot grasshoppers coming to destroy the earth if we didn't repent. He even had photos of the grasshoppers in a shoe box which he refused to open.)

So, here is what Muhammed said about himself as we compare him with the prophets and writers of the Bible. The copy of the Hadith I am using is, Al Hadis by Al Haji Maulana Fazlul Karim, The Book House, Lahore, Pakistan, in five volumes. Every Hadith has a reporter who heard Muhammed say the Hadith. Then at the end there are Muslims who attest that it was said by Muhammed. This is actually better authority than that of the Koran where only Muhammed speaks.

MUHAMMED EXALTS HIMSELF

Al Hadis, Vol 4, p. 316, Abu Hurairah reported that the Messenger of Allah said, "I have been sent in the best of the generations of the children of Adam, one generation after another generation, until I am born in the generation in which I am born." Attested by Bukhari.   This means that the generations of the world have been constantly improving, and Muhammed is the pinnacle of all men, humbly no doubt. Again, listen to him defy entropy:

Al Hadis, Vol. 4, p. 323, Abbas reported that he came to the Holy Prophet while he was in such a condition as he heard something ( about his linage from unbelievers ). The Holy Prophet got up to the pulpit and asked, "who am I?" They replied, "You are the messenger of Allah." Muhammed said, "I am Muhammed, son of Abdullah, son of Abdul Muttaleb. Allah created creations and made me the best of them. Then he divided them into two groups and made me the best of the two. Then he divided them into tribes and made me the best of the tribes. Then he made them into families and made me the best of the families. I am the best of them as a member and the best of them as a family. Attested by Tirmizi

Al Hadis, Vol 4, p. 328, Jaber reported that the Holy Prophet said, "Allah sent me to complete the excellent virtues and to perfect the good actions" Attested Sharhi-Sunnat

We are reminded at once of Muhammed's "virtue" as he consummated his battlefield "marriage" to a Jewish captive, Safiya, in a sand dune with the gore and filth of battle all over him. Virtuous actions no doubt, though it is today called rape-- virtuous, even though he broke his own Hadith sharia law to wait until after her next monthly!

Al Hadis, Vol. 4, p. 326, Obai-b-Ka'ab reported from the Holy Prophet who said: "When here will come the resurrection Day, I shall be the leader of the Prophets and their spokesman and one who will intercede for them without boast. Attested by Tirmizi

Muhammed is claiming, by inference, that he will intercede for Jesus Christ! He was good at slapping Christ's face. In another Hadith of the same passage, according to Abu Hurairah, Anas, and Abdullah-b-Salam, Muhammed claims he would be at the right hand of Allah, and that Jesus would return to earth, live forty years, then be buried with him. These are direct contradictions of Jesus Christ which Muhammed used to degrade Christ and exalt himself to guruistic heights. The claim by Muhammed, that he was the prophet of the God of the Bible, and a fellow-prophet with Jesus is preposterous.

BIBLE PROPHETS EXALT GOD OR CHRIST,

 NOT THEMSELVES

Jesus speaking of the prophet John the Baptist said in the Bible, Matthew 11:11, Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

Earlier, John, the prophet, said about himself in the Bible, Matthew 3:11, I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance, but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Like John the Baptist, a true prophet of God thinks of himself with only humility while he exalts The Lord Jesus Christ.

Here is what the Apostle to the Jews and Arabs, Paul, thought of himself in the Bible, I Timothy 1:15, This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief. Now, how is it that he spoke that way about himself, yet God let him write much of the New Testament of the Bible? Could it be that humility is required in the prophets of the God of the Bible? Answer: YES!

Listen to Isaiah speak of himself. This is the prophet that wrote the longest book of prophecy in the Bible, Isaiah 6:5, Then said I, Woe is me! for I am undone; because I am a man of unclean lips, and I dwell in the midst of a people of unclean lips: for mine eyes have seen the King, the LORD of hosts. It is obvious that Muhammed heard from Allah, a pagan god from Babylon, for if he had heard from Jehovah, he would have found no room to boast of himself.

Amos, whose book is in the Bible, thought he wasn't even qualified to be a prophet. The Bible, Amos 7:14, Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit (figs). Thus, God could use him because he was at first humble and self-effacing.

Moses, whom Muhammed blessed, couldn't even speak properly. Bible, Exodus 4:10, And Moses said unto the LORD, O my LORD, I am not eloquent, neither heretofore, nor since thou hast spoken unto thy servant: but I am slow of speech, and of a slow tongue. But, no man has been more loved, and his autographs imprinted in the world's legal structure, than those of Moses. Humility preceded his ministry.

Regarding Muhammed's attempts to humanize Christ's deity, here is where Jesus Christ is NOW! Bible, Acts 2:33-35, Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this... For David... saith himself, The Lord (Jehovah) said unto my Lord (Jesus Christ), Sit thou on my right hand, Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

Rather than Muhammed interceding for Jesus, Muhammed should have cried out to Jesus Christ to intercede for him. Since he didn't, Muhammed is now burning in Hell. The Apostle Paul said in the Bible, I Timothy 2:5, For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; and in II Timothy 4:1, I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom;

Muhammed is in trouble. He will soon meet the Judge, The Lord Jesus Christ, who will put His foot on Muhammed's neck and send him back to Hell. Muhammed had a very exalted view of himself, while the Bible prophets did not. Here is what Paul, the Bible writer, admonished men and prophets to think about themselves:

Bible, Romans 12:3, For I say, through the grace given unto me, to every man that is among you, not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think; but to think soberly, according as God hath dealt to every man the measure of faith.

Bible, Galatians 6:3, For if a man think himself to be something, when he is nothing, he deceiveth himself. 4 But let every man prove his own work, and then shall he have rejoicing in himself alone, and not in another.

Bible, I Corinthians 14:37, If any man think himself to be a prophet, or spiritual, let him acknowledge that the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.

Now, we see that a truly godly man does not even notice himself. In the I Corinthians text we see that those who are "spiritual" agree with the teachings of the Apostle Paul. This is why the Mullahs, especially Ahmed Deedat, hate the Apostle Paul. It was the Apostle Paul who also said:

Bible, II Timothy 3:13, But evil men and seducers shall wax worse and worse, deceiving, and being deceived.

Muhammed and Islam have no problem with evolution. They believe Muhammed was the pinnacle of all human evolution, and things will get better and better as Islam takes over the world. The coming section on Muhammed's libido should be sufficient to show that he wasn't quite as lofty as he imagined. As to Islam, the wars between the Sunni and Shiite Muslims show how they cannot tame the human spirit, and the war between Iraq and Iran proved the Apostle Paul to be correct

Page 171

rather than Muhammed. Truly, Muhammed and his followers were seduced by their own rebellious hearts.

Let us now give the last verdict to The Lord Jesus Christ, who will judge Muhammed at the Last Day. Here is the command of Jesus:

Bible, Mark 8:34, And when he had called the people unto him with his disciples also, he said unto them, Whosoever will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. (Muhammed exalted himself, so he is guilty of mocking at this standard.)

Bible, Luke 17:10, So likewise ye, when ye shall have done all those things which are commanded you, say, We are unprofitable servants: we have done that which was our duty to do. (Muhammed said he was the last and the best servant.)

Bible, Matthew 18:3, (Jesus Christ spoke) And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.   4 Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in the kingdom of heaven. (Muhammed humbled and married a little girl, Ayesha- age 9, but he exalted himself above all men.)

Bible, Matthew 23:12, And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted.

It is very clear that Muhammed was an arrogant and self-possessed man. Do you see now why I cannot compare him with Jesus Christ? Rather; I prefer to let Jesus Christ make the condemning judgment of Muhammed, after all, Muhammed will one day stand before The Lord Jesus Christ to be judged.
