The liberation of Mecca (Paran) by 10,000 Muslims in the Bible:
Let us look at the following Verse from the King James Version Bible: "And Enoch [Idris in Arabic, one of Allah Almighty's Prophets peace be upon all of them to the people of Israel.] also, the seventh generation from Adam, prophesied of these, saying, Behold, the Lord came with ten thousands of his saints, to execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard [speeches] which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. (Jude 1:14-15)"
Let us also look at the following Verse: "And he said, The LORD came from Si'-nai, and rose up from Se'-ir unto them; he shined forth from mount Pa'-ran [Mecca in Arabic], and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them. (The King James Version Bible, Deuteronomy 33:2)" According to Islam's history, when Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him and his followers faced hostility from the people of Mecca (Paran), they had to leave the city. They fled to the City of "Yathrib" which was called later "Madina" where Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him continued to spread Islam to all of the Arabs and then later to the countries near by.
(Click here) See Proof that "Paran" in the Bible is "Mecca".
When Islam became complete and the number of the Muslims grew up, Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him decided to liberated the Holy City of Mecca, the city of our beloved father Abraham the father of Ishmael and Isaac peace be upon all of them who built the black cube building of Kaaba in the same city, the Holy House of GOD Almighty.
The army of the Muslims that conquered Mecca without any blood shed (peacefully) were exactly 10,000 men (From the book of "Muhammad the Prophet" by Maulana Muhammad Ali, pages 128-129). The Bible calls them "ten thousands of saints".
Also, the movie "The Message", which talks about the life of Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him, mentions that Mecca was liberated by 10,000 Muslim men.
As brother Abdul Haleem mentions below:
"Muhammad In World Scriptures," Volume I, Maulana Abdul Haq Vidyarthi (New USA Edition, 1999), p. 73.
"Paran" is a biblical name for the part of Arabia called Hejaz where prophet Muhammad [pbuh] was born. When prophet Ishmael and his mother were driven out by Sarah; they settled in the "Wilderness of Paran" (Genesis, 21:21). Prophet Ishmael happens to be the progenitor of prophet Muhammad [pbuh]. . . ."Muhammad [pbuh] In the Bible," Mohd Elfi Nieshaem Juferi, http://members.xoox.com/_XMCM/lordxarkun/Islam/habakkuk.html.

It's quite interesting to see how the Bible in both the Old Testament and the New Testament predicts this event to occur in the city of Paran (Mecca).
Two questions for Jews and Christians:
If the prophecies above from the Bible were not referring to our beloved Prophet peace be upon him and his army, then who else are they referring to?
Would you please bring me one Christian or Jewish event that took place in the Holy City of Paran (Mecca), or any city or event in the Bible that involved 10,000 Christian or Jewish saints? I searched and asked found nothing!
The Biblical number 10,000, and the Prophecy of the 10,000 men of GOD Almighty executing the Judgement of GOD in an ungodly place is only linked to Prophet Muhammad and Islam.
Embrace Islam and you will be saved!
Further from brother Haleem, a new convert to Islam; may Allah Almighty always be pleased with him:
| As to using SONG OF SONGS 5:10 below to
show that Prophet Muhammad peace be upon him was foretold, the reason why I posted it is
because the ENGLISH Bibles had been known to be NOTORIOUS in mistranslation [1]
[2]
[3].
1- Altered and much of the porn was added to it as the NIV Bible's theologians themselves clearly admit: From www.answering-christianity.com/authors_gospels.htm: The book of Song of Songs: "Verse 1 appears to ascribe authorship to Solomon. Solomon is referred to seven times, and several verses speak of the 'king', but whether he was the author remains an open question. (From the NIV Bible Commentary, page 997)" "Two lovers, Solomon and a Shulamite girl, express their feelings for one another, with occasional comments made by friends. (From the King James Version Commentary, page 945)"
So could it be possible that the whole letter could've been mistranslated? Or man's alterations had entered it, which explains why we have so much graphic porn in this book. Only time will tell. |
Anyway, here is brother Abdul Haleem's article....
It is a well-established tradition, that:
The Prophet [pbuh] left
Medina [for Mecca] in the company
of ten thousand in Ramadan.
Saheeh Bukhari, 5:574, emphasis added.
In both Old and New Testaments - despite the corrupted nature of the texts - the
appearance of Muhammad with an army of 10,000 is prophesied. In Deuteronomy 33:2,
the appearance of a prophet with "ten thousands of saints" is predicted by
Moses:
And he said The Lord came
from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto
them; he shined forth from Mount Paran, and he
came with ten
thousands of saints; from his right hand went a
fiery law for them.
Bible (King James Version), Deuteronomy 33:2, emphasis added.
That this reference is to the prophet Muhammad [pbuh] is unmistakable:
"Paran" is a
biblical name for the part of Arabia called Hejaz
where prophet Muhammad [pbuh] was born. When
prophet
Ishmael and his mother were driven out by
Sarah; they settled
in the "Wilderness of Paran"
(Genesis, 21:21). Prophet Ishmael
happens to be the progenitor of prophet
Muhammad [pbuh]. . . .
"Muhammad [pbuh] In the Bible," Mohd Elfi Nieshaem Juferi, http://members.xoox.com/_XMCM/lordxarkun/Islam/habakkuk.html.
Not only the history of
the Israelite prophets, but the
annals of the world point out but one person -
that of the Holy
Prophet Muhammad [pbuh] as being the holy one
accompanied
by ten thousand saints. . . .
"Muhammad In World Scriptures," Volume I, Maulana Abdul Haq Vidyarthi (New USA
Edition, 1999), p. 73, emphasis added.
In order to obscure this prophecy, the New Living Translation, Douay and some other English translations of the Bible, purposely mistranslate Deuteronomy 33:2, to eliminate all references to "ten thousand."
Maulana Abdul Haq Vidyarthi comments on this mistranslation as follows:
There is an important
word ribeboth - which occurs in the text
which we have translated as ten thousands. This
word has
occurred at many places in the books of the
Prophets, and is derived
ribboth which means ten thousands. The
dictionary A Hebrew
and English Lexicon by Gesenius and Brown has
shown ribboth
to mean a myriad, ten thousands, and
shte-ribboth to mean
twice ten thousand. Sometimes ribboth is used
without the final
letter th with the same meaning. [see e.g. 1
Chronicles, 29:7; Ezra, 2:64;
Niemiah, 7:66, all using ribbo]
Id., at p. 74, emphasis in original, footnotes and Hebrew text omitted, footnote 97
partially reproduced in ellipses.
Significantly , in both the New Living Translation and Douay Bible, 1 Chronicles 29:7, which talks about offerings of "ten thousand darics gold" and "ten thousand talents of silver," the Hebrew number term that is not translated "ten thousand" in Deuteronomy 33:2 is translated as "ten thousand."
It also should be noted that the Revised Standard Bible, Websters Bible, World English Bible and New American Standard all include the number "ten thousand" in their translations of Deuteronomy 33:2.
Todays English Version attempts to obscure the prophecy contained in Deuteronomy 33:2 another way, by translating the Hebrew as saying "ten thousand angels," rather than "ten thousand saints."
Maulana Abdul Haq Vidyarthi also has commented on this mistranslation:
The next important word in this regard is
qodesh, which is now
being translated into angels. Its primary meaning is pure and holy and
is applied to every pure and holy thing, person or people or even to a
place,
e.g. admath-qodesh, [Exodus 3:5] holy ground; meqom-ha-qodesh,
[Leviticus,
10:7] holy place; am-ha-qodesh, [Daniel 12;7] holy people; har-qodeshi,
[Psalms 2;6] my holy hill.
Hence, me-ribeboth-qodesh, according to the dictionary and usage of the Bible means with
then thousands of saints.
"Muhammad In World Scriptures," supra, at p. 74, emphasis in original, footnotes omitted, footnotes 98, 99, 100 and 101 reproduced in ellipses.
Here, again, most English translations of the Bible agree that the "ten thousand" are "saints" or "holy ones," not "angels." See e.g. Revised Standard Version ("holy ones"); Websters Bible ("saints"); New American Standard ("holy ones"); Douay ("saints").
The predictions of a Prophet appearing with a host of "ten thousand saints" are repeated in the New Testament.
In Jude 1:14-15, Jude writes of a then-unfulfilled prophecy by Enoch [Idris in the
Arabic, see Quran, 19:56-57]:
It was also about these
that Enoch, in the seventh generation from
Adam prophesied, saying, "See, the Lord
came with ten thousands
of his saints, to execute judgment on all, and
to convict everyone of
all the deeds of ungodliness that they have
committed
in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh
things which
ungodly sinners have spoken against him."
Bible (The New Revised Standard Version), Jude 1:14-15, emphasis added.
This prophecy of Enoch clearly refers to the Holy Prophet [pbuh] for the following
reasons:
1. Only the Prophet
Muhammad [pbuh] had ten thousand
saints with him. We have shown elsewhere that
these saints accompanied
the Prophet [pbuh] at the conquest of Makka.
2. The Holy Prophet [pbuh] executed
judgment upon all the
unbelievers at the conquest of Makka and
convinced ungodly Makkans
of their ungodly deeds.
3. The Christians kept waiting for the
coming of the Lord
even after Christ had come, for this epistle of
Jude was written long
after Christ and the Christians knew that it
referred to come other
personage who, from the time of the Prophet
Enoch up to the time
of Christ, had not appeared. The prophecy was
therefore clearly for
the Prophet Muhammad [pbuh] and for none else.
"Muhammad In World Scriptures," supra, at p. 24.
Because of the clarity of this prophecy, many of the English translations of the Bible purposely obscure it, by omitting the number reference to "ten thousand" or by claiming that the prophet announced was accompanied by "angels" rather than "saints" or "holy ones." See New Living Testament, Todays English Version, Douay, and New American Standard.
However, the King James and New Revised Standard Version translate the passage in Jude 1:14 as referring to "ten thousands of his saints" (King James) or "ten thousands of his holy ones" (New Revised Standard).
An examination of the original Greek supports the latter interpretation:
The word translated "ten thousand" is murias, which in Greek usually means "ten thousand," though it may also mean "an innumerable multitude" or :innumerable hosts." Strongs Concordance, No. 3461.
The word mistranslated in Todays English Version as "angels" is hagios which means in Greek "most holy thing" or "saint," not "angel." Strongs Concordance, No. 40.
Once we get past the deliberate mistranslations of Deuteronomy 33:2 and Jude 1:14-15, we find that these prophecies not only refer unequivocally to the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) , but that they are corroborative of the much-discussed prophecy in Song of Songs, 5:10-16.
According to the well-researched work of Mohd Elfi Nieshaem Juferi and Maulana Abdul
Haq Vidyarthi, the original Hebrew version of Song of Songs 5:16, if correctly translated,
predicts the coming of Muhammad (pbuh) by name:
His mouth is most: yea,
he is MUHAMMAD. This is my
(paternal) UNCLE, and this is my COMRADE, O
daughters
of Jerusalem.
"Muhammad [pbuh] In the Bible," supra, http://members.xoox.com_XMCM/lordxarkun/Islam/songs5_10-16.html,
emphasis in original; see also "Muhammad In World Scriptures," supra, at pp.
100-111.
Significantly, in Song of Songs 5:10, this same prophet - expressly identified in the Hebrew as "Muhammad," is described as being "the chiefest among ten thousands" (ibid., emphasis added) (King James Version).
This reference to the "ten thousands" indicates that the Prophet referred to must be the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh)!
