HINDUISM–GAYATRI MANTRA IS MOHAMMAD
The Prophet Mohammad is reported to have said that Allāh God, said: I loved that I should be known, so I created man.1
Allāh God “created man of sounding clay, of black mud”–(Qur’an 15:26. Thus, every Hindu, Jew, Christian, Muslim, etc; of every color has black “Adam’s blood” flowing in his veins).
Allāh tells us in His Qur’an that He raised up messengers among all people and gave them acts of devotion–(Qur’an 22:34) and one common message: “And We sent no messenger before thee (Mohammad) but We revealed to him that there is no God but Me, so serve Me”–(Qur’an 21:25; 10:47. Thus Allāh God is known by a name according to the language of the people).
Mohammad was the first and the only prophet to declare that Allāh God raised messengers in all nations–(Qur’an 10:47; 16:36; 35:24).
As Mohammad embraced these messengers he declared through Revelation that all messengers of the world foretold his coming–(Qur’an 3:80). The last of these prophets to foretell the coming of Mohammad was the prophet Jesus Christ–(Qur’an 61:6).
Whereas Mohammad does not need any other Scripture or prophet to substantiate his status as Divine Messenger –the Qur’an with its prophecies; statements on science and its inimitability (Qur’an 2:23; 10:38; 11:13; 17:88; 52:34); and events of the Doomsday that have found resonance in the scientific community is proof of Mohammad’s Divine Messengership status– Abdul Haque Vidyarthi, in his monumental three-volume work Muhammad In World Scriptures, “had adduced 3000 incontrovertible arguments and signs proving the truthfulness of the Holy Prophet Muhammad and his Divine mission.” He has shown that the Prophet Mohammad was foretold in “Mystic Syllables Of Egyptian Book Of The Dead, and in Zoroastrian, Hindu, Buddhist, Jewish and Christian Scriptures.”2
Whereas Jesus was the last prophet to foretell the coming of Mohammad, the first Scripture to foretell the coming of Mohammad was the Rg Veda.
Abdul Haque has detailed several prophecies about the Prophet Mohammad in the Vedas. In Vol. 1, he has shown that the Prophet Mohammad is the sun (who “sharpen and refine our intellect”) of Hinduism’s Gayatri mantra of the Rig Veda–3:62:10.
AHV states that the Gayatri mantra has also been called “Savitri, the mother of all the Vedas.”
AHV states, “In this translation we shall not adduce anything of our own. The text of the Gayatri has been quoted from Rig Veda, mandal 3, Sukt 62, mantra 10: and the rendering, too, is not ours but that of the pandits themselves.”
The Gayatri mantra reads:
“Tat Savitur Varenyam Bhargo
Devasya Dhi Mahi
Dhiyo Yo Nah Prachodyat”
“Its literal translation is:
“That Sun, bright and pure, the god’s great wisdom
–may he sharpen and refine our intellect.”
(Abdul Haque notes “Obscurities in the translation” and proceeds): “Keeping these perplexities in view, one is naturally tempted to ask: Whom the prayer has been addressed to in the mantra. To the Sun, or the Light of the Sun, or to his wisdom and intellect?”
AHV points out that to give meaning to this Gayatri mantra, “the pandits prefix these four words which does not exist in the Veda Om bhur bhava svaha. The word Om, it may be noted, is not found anywhere in the Rig Veda. These four words they interpolate and insert before the Gayatri mantra for the reason that it may yield some significance at least.”
AHV also points out that some pandits, “in order to make the Sun the ultimate object, of the term tat, add of their accord the word tasya after it. In that case, the term tat seems to be superfluous and redundant.”
AHV shows, through analysis, that the “Sun” mentioned in the above mantra is not the physical sun but a spiritual sun. “Verenyam means Munira i.e. the giver of light; and the meaning of Munira is The light-giving Sun.”
That “Savitur Varenyam” of the Gayatri mantra is just like “Sirajam Munira” (“the light-giving sun”) which epithet the Prophet Mohammad is mentioned as in the Qur’an:
“O Prophet, surely We have sent thee as a witness, and a bearer of good news and a warner, And as an inviter to Allah by His permission, and as a light-giving sun”–(Qur’an 33:45-46).
“With Hindus the Gayatri mantra carries very much the same sacred significance as does the holy kalimah (the formula of faith) with the Muslims. This mantra (sacred verse) has also been called Savitri, the mother of all the Vedas, just as Surah Fatihah (the opening chapter of the Holy Qur’an) has been called Umm-al Qur’an (the mother or basis of the Qur’an) by the Muslims.”
And this “mother of all the Vedas” is a prophecy about the Prophet Mohammad. (pp. 247-266).
The RgVeda is said to be the oldest Scripture.
As Allāh God knowing how many prophets He would send into the world had the prophets of various nations foretell the coming of His last Prophet, Mohammad, it is reasonable that Allah would in His first Scripture to mankind, the Rig Veda, make mention of this last Prophet of His through whom His favors to man would be “completed” and religion “perfected”-(Qur’an 5:3) and who will give “all truth” as Jesus said.
One who has brought “all truth,” “completed” favors” and “perfected” religion, there is no more truth to be given, no more favors to be had, and nothing to supersede perfection. In effect, there is no other light more resplendent, more illuminating than the “light-giving sun”–the Prophet Mohammad.
That Mohammad was foretold in the first Scripture, the RgVeda; then it stands to reason that Mohammad was the first soul created by God, as the Prophet is reported to have said: “The very first thing that Allâh Almighty ever created was my soul.”
That Mohammad was the first soul created is not incredible. It is said that the first thing a novelist knows or ascertains is the ending of his novel and works towards the ending. A builder of a house would know before hand the size of his house, the number of windows, etc.
Reason would dictate that Allāh knowing how many prophets He would be sending also knew their names and in what order he would be sending them. Thus, in order for each prophet to know about the prophet to come after him Allāh would have first created the prophet that He would send last.
Thus, Mohammad being the last and final prophet from God, Mohammad was correct in stating that Allāh created his soul first.
In fact, it may be stated that in the matter of creation and finality of prophethood Mohammad was/is, respectively, the First and the Last –the Alpha and Omega,
