Yes, the Muslims are the “great nation” that Allah Almighty has talked about;<br />

they are blessed by Him <strong>be</strong>cause they worship none but Him, and they bless<br />

Abraham (pbuh) every day (no fewer than nine times) in their prayers.<br />

Proof 24: According <strong>to</strong> the Gospel of John, the Jews were waiting for the<br />

fulfilment of three distinct prophecies.<br />

The first was the coming of Christ. The second was the coming of Elijah. The<br />

third was the coming of the prophet. This is obvious from the three questions that<br />

were posed <strong>to</strong> John the Baptist.<br />

And this is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from<br />

Jerusalem <strong>to</strong> ask him, “<strong>Who</strong> are you?” He confessed, and did not deny, but<br />

confessed, “I am not the Christ.” And they asked him, “What then? Are you<br />

Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” And he answered, “No.”<br />

(John 1:19-21)<br />

prophecy of Deuteronomy 18:15 and 18:18 (about raising up a prophet from their<br />

brothers). It can <strong>be</strong> concluded from this that Muhammad (bpuh) is the prophet<br />

mentioned there, <strong>be</strong>cause he is the only prophet who came after Prophet Jesus<br />

(pbuh), and he is the one who is “like un<strong>to</strong> him.” Furthermore, it is obvious that the<br />

Jews and John knew that “the Prophet” and the Christ were two different persons,<br />

since each was referred <strong>to</strong> by a separate question.<br />

Proof 25: John 16:7<br />

Jesus (pbuh) is reported <strong>to</strong> have said:<br />
