Bad Influence

Prophet Muhammad NOT in the Hindu Scriptures

 

Dr. Zakir Naik's second major unprovoked deceit and attack on Hinduism, and one that is widely parroted by his son Fariq Naik and other speakers and followers of the Muslim world is his claim that Prophet Muhammad is mentioned/prophesised in the Vedic scriptures. 

 

I have addressed this in a two part video on my youtube channel (see lower left), however, I feel it is worth mentioning on this site. 

 

The correct way to research Vedic texts or any other texts is to learn Sanskrit or in Islam's case, Arabic in order to know the full meaning of what is written in the respective scriptures, in their contexts. Ofcourse a study of all the religion's texts before making any claims is the main requirement, however, when attacks on a religion are made it is easy to address the event, incident or teaching at hand almost directly by just reading the scholarly translation of the verse in question and the surrounding verses as well, along with scholarly commentaries or in Islam's case a tafsir or Islamic commentary.

A comparison with various scholarly works on that particular issue

will form a reasonable assumption as to what is said and the context relayed.

 

Dr. Zakir Naik, in making these UNPROVOKED claims, goes in public, grabs a microphone as a self-confessed student of comparative religion, relies on full scholarly translations from qualified persons, and then clearly rips verses out of context. Many times, he fails to confirm WHICH scholarly works he relies on OR fails to provide at least an online library or website, for his audience to refer to.

 

 

You can see from my video "How You can Disprove Dr. Zakir Naik Yourself " (see left) that he relies on Devi Chand (M.A) and Ralph T.H Griffith (M.A) in his own books when aiming to mislead on Hinduism's concept of God.

 

My videos on Prophet Muhammad in the Hindu Scriptures address 19 complete fabrications, using Ralph T.H Griffith's translations, which can also be read at sacred-texts.com. (watch videos on left)

 

Remember the chronology here. Hindus did not make a wealth of fabrications about Lord Hanuman or Lord Ganesh in Muslim texts. Baseless claims that no scholar in their right mind would agree to.

 

What we have here is a continuous unprovoked assault from the Islamic world on Hinduism, serving not to enlighten or unite diverse communties, but to use FALSEHOOD to divide, provoke violence and solidify intolerance. These are false accusations which should result in a ban against any channel airing them.

 

Consider the Innocence of Muslims movie.  How true was it? Yet there were riots all over the middle east. I am asking the Muslim world to observe a double standard at play here. Hindus and Hinduism have been demonised by the Muslim world too much for far too long. A Muslim can build a mosque in India. Hundreds are there. Try building a mandir in Saudi Arabia. Muslims say nothing about this, but deflect criticism from this issue. This attitude works against Islam in an age which wants and demands freedom of religion.

 

Prophet Muhammad was NOT mentioned or prophesized in the Hindu scripures, save ONE posssible instance. An unfavourable instance.

The Tripasura demon extract of the Bhavishya Purana. I will address this later on my site.

 

What is remarkable about this is when this anti-hindu lie was being thrown around, I can recall speaking to two Muslims a few years ago who found me OBJECTING and challenging Zakir Naik as an INSULT TO THEIR FAITH!!!!

 

THAT WAS UNBEARABLY UNBEARABLE. Imagine that. I don't blame them. 

 

Not all Muslims are as gullible as this but the question is begged, why say it in the first place if it is CLEARLY UNTRUE? -

 

Answer: To convert people to Islam at any cost.

 

 

 

NOTE: I will create new videos featuring Devi Chand (M.A) translations later on in the year on the issue of Prophet Muhammad in the Hindu scriptures.
