Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in Hindu scriptures

by Dr. Zakir Naik

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:
1) The evil doers have corrupted the Arab land.
2) Arya Dharma is not found in that land.
3) The Indian Raja need not go the Arab land since his purification will take place in India after the musalmaan will arrive in India .
4) The coming Prophet will attest the truth of the Aryan faith, i.e. Monotheism and will reform the misguided people.
5) 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.
6) They will announce the Aadhaan, i.e. 'the Muslim call for prayer'.
7) 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 173In Surah Al-Maidah chapter 5 verse 3In 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".
8) They will not purify with grass like the Hindus but by means of sword they will fight their irreligious people.
9) They will be called musalmaan.
10) 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
