Do jewish believe in Prophet Muhammad(PBUH)

[Hussein radi]

I have heard that the jewish were waiting for Prophet Muhammad(PBUH)after prophet jesus(PBUH). unfortunately he was not a jewish but an arab.

Some people say that they believe in him, but they dont want to accept him becuase simply his not a jewish.

some people say that they never believed in him?

Do the christans believe in Prophet Muhhamad(pbum)?

As I understand it, the orthodox Jewish belief is that a messiah (as opposed to a prophet) from the line of David will come bringing with him an era of peace and prosperity for both living and dead - there is debate whether 'dead' here refers to some sort of literal resurrection. The Temple in Jerusalem will be re-built, the people will find God (if they haven't already), the people of Israel will return to Israel, war and famine will end, etc.

Mohammed therefore didn't 'qualify' anyway, and as none of those things came to pass he wouldn't have been accepted whether Jewish, Arab or anything else. There have been a few 'claimants' though, throughout history.

It is not true that Mohammed was not accepted as he was not Jewish. The idea is absurd.. if they believed Mohammed was a, or indeed the, true Prophet of God, they would not reject him. But, even if aware of him, they did not believe it.

Do the christans believe in Prophet Muhhamad(pbum)?

No, or at least only as a historical figure. They do not believe him to have been a prophet, or the Qu'ran to be the word of God.

There have been jews and christians that have believed in Muhammed as a Prophet PBUH, but they are no longer jews and christians, they are now muslims. There have been millions of these kind of reverts. Obviously theee are some who haven't believed

 

[Hussein radi]

Actually in saudi arabia they taught me that the jewish were waiting for the greatest and last prophet. However, he was not a jew so they tried to kill him several times out of jealousy. Jesus(PBUH) in the other hand also talked about Prophet Muhammad(pbuh). He talked about his greatness and how he will not fail. That is how the jewish knew of a last prophet.
Abviously Prophet Muhammed(PBUH)had a purpose and that was to spread the True Word to humanity( like all the other prophets)

We were created for a purpose and thats to prove to god that we are worthy for the life after. So god has send down phrophets to guide us to the stright path. Every time a prophet teachings is corrupt god sends down another prophet. So it is clearly that prophet Huhammas(PBUH) teachings
is not corrupted and we must listen to the last prophet teachings( not the once before him).

If so( which will not happen) Islam teachings was corrupted then god will send down another prophet.

That is why they teach me that i must respect the tura and the bible becuase they also have god words in them.

Lol how come u keep sayin Huhammed and not Muhammed?

Yeah i understand that we do have to respect parts of the Torah and Injeel, but we have to also believe a lot of the text today is corrupted and untrue, since it says so many bad things about previous prophets and God. But obviously some parts are true, those parts being ones that match what the Qur'an says, since we know only the Qur'an is the preserved and undoubted word of God

 

[Hussein radi]

o sorry lol i dont know

 

[Hussein radi]

One thing i forgot to mention, The Jewish were the once who saw the light of the star when Prophet Muhammed(pbuh) was born and quickly they start searching for him. They were waiting unpatiently for this great prophet for a long time. Arabs at that time didnt even know the definition of a prophet.

Hussein Radi "One thing i forgot to mention, The Jewish were the once who saw the light of the star when Prophet Muhammed(pbuh) was born and quickly they start searching for him".

I am hoping for a better understanding, can you tell me where this teaching comes from. Thanks.

Do the christans believe in Prophet Muhhamad(pbum)?

The Jews who moved to Arabia, more specifically Madinah, where waiting on a Prophet to arise. So many Jewish tribes emigrated to Madinah, the place they recognised as the one the final prophet would come to. They used to taunt the pagan arabs of the time that the Prophet was set to come. However when the Prophet (SAW) did arrive many jews rejected him because he came from the arabs and not from amongst the jews.

:salamext:


Yeah, subhan Allaah - they never accepted our beloved Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) because all the prophets from Ibraheem (alayhi Salaam) had come from the children of Ishaac, so they thought the final prophet would also be from the children of Israel, but Muhammad (sal Allaahu alayhi waSalam) was the only prophet from among the arabs (the children of ismaeel [brother of Ishaac]) so they rejected him (peace be upon him) due to their pride of their lineage.

true say
"Quite a number of the People of the Book wish they could Turn you (people) back to infidelity after ye have believed, from selfish envy, after the Truth hath become Manifest unto them: But forgive and overlook, Till Allah accomplish His purpose; for Allah Hath power over all things.
And be steadfast in prayer and regular in charity: And whatever good ye send forth for your souls before you, ye shall find it with Allah. for Allah sees Well all that ye do" suraa 2 verse 109-10

The people of the Book know this as they know their own sons; but some of them conceal the truth which they themselves know. (2:146)

The Truth is from thy Lord; so be not at all in doubt. (2:147)

No jews don't believe that he was a prophet and christians (well conservative ones) don't not believe him to be a prophet

Well Jews don't accept Jesus as a Prophet or a Son of God so obviously they were not waiting for another one after that one. The Jews are still waiting for the Messiah to come - the same idea as the Muslim Mahdi. And the Messiah will have to come from the lineage of King David which Muhammed, obviously, did not.

Some people say that they believe in him, but they dont want to accept him becuase simply his not a jewish.

Well that would be a Muslim claim. Muslims tend to believe that Christians and Jews "really" believe in Islam and have trouble accepting that anyone would not. But I know of no Jewish group that thinks Muhammed was a prophet nor in the past any Jewish group that thought Jesus was anything other than a criminal although now there is a group called "Jews for Jesus" who claim to be both Jewish and believers in Jesus as the Son of God. So a "Jews for Muhammed" is not impossible.

some people say that they never believed in him?

Well if they did surely they would be Muslims?

Do the christans believe in Prophet Muhhamad(pbum)?

No. Or they would be Muslims too.

I will try to explain how it looks to non-Muslims. Every monotheistic religion thinks that it is the last and final Message. So Jews think that God stopped talking to humans with their last Book of the Bible. Hence to pious Jews, Jesus and Muhammed must be blasphemers and inspired by the Devil. To Christians, God obviously spoke to the Jews, but they got the message wrong, and hence God sent His Only Son, but that was the Final Message. Hence the Jews are wrong, and so Muhammed must be a blasphemer who was inspired by the Devil. To Muslims, God obvious spoke to the Jews and the Christians, but they got both messages wrong, and hence God talked to Gabriel who talked to Muhammed and this is the Final Message. Now to the Bahais, God obviously spoke to the Jews, the Christian, the Muslims etc etc.

So to the Jews everyone is like the Bahais are to the Muslims. To the Christians, the Jews are like the Christians are to the Muslims, but the Muslims are to Christians like the Bahais are to the Muslims.

Yep. But its Jews for Allah

Can you tell me more about the Bahais?

I've taken this answer from http://answers.yahoo.com

Do Jews accept Muhammad (pbuh) as a Prophet?

"NO, they do not. They however accept Islam as a religion which teaches about the same true God as they believe in, and good muslims are accepted as righteous gentiles" (by Heron by the Sea)

"NO, we (Jews) have nothing against him. We believe that prophecy ended long before Muhammad and will not come back until the Messiah and since Muhammad did not fulfill the requirements to be the Messiah that being said. We fully support Islam as a religion for gentiles and pray that one day we will live in peace" (by Gratvol)

"YES, He is not our Prophet - he is not a Jewish prophet. But Jews accept that he was a prophet to another people, bringing the word of the One G-d to them. And that has great value for Judaism" (by Ella)

 

[Abu Zakariya]

The Jews are still waiting for the Messiah to come - the same idea as the Muslim Mahdi.

Eh, no...

We believe that Jesus is the Messiah.
The Mahdi is a totally different person.

 

[nimrod]

The prophet that we are waiting on is Elijah. We are also waiting on Enoc to return, it is assumed that they will return at the same time according to the book of Revelation.
This concept also fits with the rest of the scripture that say's all men are to suffer death and then be judged.
Neither Elijah nor Enoc has suffered death.
