The words clearly show that the Comforter had to come after the departure of Jesus, and was not with him when he uttered these words. Are we to presume that Jesus was devoid of the Holy Ghost if his coming was conditional on the going of Jesus: besides, the way in which Jesus describes him makes him a human being, not a ghost. \u201cHe shall not speak of himself, but whatsoever he shall hear that he shall speak\u201d (John 16:13). Should we presume that the Holy Ghost and God are two distinct entities and that the Holy Ghost speaks of himself and also what he hears from God? The words of Jesus clearly refer to some messenger from God. He calls him the Spirit of Truth, and so the Qur\u2018an speaks of Muhammad, <span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cNay, he has come with the Truth and verified the apostles\u201d<\/span> (Qur\u2019an 37:37).

In case he judged between them, he is still told to judge with equity. To be equitable notwithstanding the severest enmity of the Jews and notwithstanding the knowledge that they were always plotting with the enemies of Islam for its extirpation, shows that the Prophet had reached the highest point of moral rectitude to which man can attain\u201d\u2013M. Ali comm. Qur\u2019an 5:42).<br \/>\n\u201cThe Divine judgment in the Torah referred to here may either imply the Divine injunctions in the Torah, which the Jews refused to follow, or the prophecies of the advent of the Holy Prophet, which they refused to accept\u201d\u2013(<em>Ibid;<\/em> comm. Qur\u2019an 5:43)<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #800000;\">Qur\u2019an 5:44:<\/span> Allah says:<strong> \u201c<\/strong>Surely We revealed the Torah, having guidance and light. By it did the prophets who submitted themselves (to Allah) judge for the Jews, and the rabbis and the doctors of law, because they were required to guard the Book of All\u0101h and they were witnesses thereof. So fear not the people and fear Me, and take not a small price for My messages. And whoever judges not by what All\u0101h has revealed, those are the disbelievers.\u201d<br \/>\nMuhammad Ali: \u201cVerses 44\u201347 are supposed by Christian critics to be evidence of the purity of the text of the Torah and the Gospel. This is not true. That the Torah was a Divine revelation containing light and guidance has never been denied. What is denied is that that light and guidance were kept intact throughout the ages. It is further denied that these two books were meant for the whole world and for all ages. They certainly contained light and guidance, but only for one people \u2014 the Israelites, and for a limited time. Notwithstanding the light and guidance contained in the Torah, the Gospel was sent down for the Israelite people, which shows clearly that the light and guidance contained in the Torah were not considered sufficient even for the Israelites for all ages, to say nothing of other nations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe statement made here is that the masters of Divine knowledge and the doctors \u201cwere required to guard the Book of All\u0101h\u201d, i.e. the Torah. The Qur\u2019an does not say that they were actually successful in doing so. On the other hand, alteration of those books is clearly spoken of in 2:75 and 2:79. As against this, the guarding of the Holy Qur\u2019an is spoken of as the work of God Himself; see 15:9: \u201cSurely We have revealed the Reminder, and surely We are its Guardian.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt should be borne in mind that by judging is not meant only the judging of civil or criminal cases, but judging in all matters of religion, so that those who did not judge the revelation of the Holy Prophet by what was revealed in the Torah were disbelievers. And note that the adoption of the words <em>what Allah has revealed <\/em>instead of the <em>Torah <\/em>is not without significance.

Aramaic was his mother tongue and Hebrew his religious language. The present Biblical version is the translation of Aramaic and Hebrew into Greek\u2026The Greek language has another word, <em>i.e.,<\/em> Periklutos, with a similar meaning as Ahmad in Arabic.<br \/>\nJack Finegan, the renowned Christian theologian, in his book, \u201cThe Archaeology of World Religions,\u201d says: \u2018Where in Greek the word Parakletos (Comforter) is very similar to Periklutos (renowned), the latter word being the meaning of the names Ahmad and Muhammad.\u2019<br \/>\nMoreover, \u201cThe Damascus Document\u201d, a scripture discovered towards the end of the nineteenth century in Ezra synagogue, Old Cairo, (p.2), described Jesus as having foretold the advent of a \u201cHoly Spirit\u201d, named Emeth: <em>And by His Messiah, He has made them know His Holy Spirit. For it is he who is Emeth, i.e., the Truthful One, and in accordance with His name are also theirs\u2026<\/em> \u201cEmeth\u201d in Hebrew means \u201cthe Truth\u201d, or \u201cthe Truthful One and a person of constant goodness\u201d (Strachan\u2019s Fourth Gospel, p. 141). This word was interpreted by the Jews as \u201cGod\u2019s Seal.\u201d<br \/>\nNaturally, though Jesus must have used the name Ahmad, the phonetic resemblance between the two words (Ahmad and Emeth) led later writers to substitute \u201cEmeth\u201d for Ahmad, its Hebrew synonym.

These prophecies, it is claimed, cannot be altered by men, and they must come to pass, however great the opposing forces.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">However, that there is <span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u201cnone who can alter His (All\u0101h\u2019s) words.\u201d<\/span>\u00a0 The Christian tries to use this as proof that the Bible was not \u201caltered.\u201d<br \/>\nWhile it is already proved that the Bible has more human weaving than a Galilean\u2019s fish-net. Altering physical Books is NOT altering All\u0101h\u2019s words. Anyone can alter a Book but no one can alter All\u0101h\u2019s decree.<br \/>\nTwo examples that whereas man can alter words\/books but CANNOT alter God\u2019s decree are (i) Jews replacing Ishmael\u2019s name with Isaac\u2019s in the Old Testament, and \u00a0(ii) God\u2019s word of taking His kingdom from Jews and giving it to another people (Muslims):<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a0\u00a0 (i) Professor \u2018Abdul Ahad Dawud B.D. <span style=\"color: #800080;\">\u2013\u201cthe former Reverend David Benjamin Keldani, B.D., a Roman Catholic priest of the Uniate-Chaldean sect\u201d\u2013<\/span> explains in his revealing book <em>Muhammad In The Bible<\/em>:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe Jews have always been jealous of Ishmael because they know very well that <strong>in him<\/strong> the Covenant was made and with his circumcision it was concluded and sealed, and it is out of this rancour that their scribes or doctors of law have corrupted and interpolated many passages in their Scriptures. To <strong>efface the name \u201cIshmael\u201d<\/strong> from the second, sixth, and seventh verses of the twenty-second chapter of the Book of Genesis and to insert in its place \u201cIsaac,\u201d and to leave the descriptive epithet \u201cthy only begotten son\u201d is to deny the existence of the former and to violate the Covenant made between God and Ishmael. It is expressly said in this chapter by God: \u201cBecause thou didst not spare thy only begotten son, I will increase and multiply thy posterity like the stars and the sands on the seashore,\u201d which word \u201cmultiply\u201d was used by the Angel to Hagar in the wilderness: I will multiply thy offspring to an innumerable multitude, and that Ishmael \u201cshall become a fruitful man\u201d (Gen. xvi. 12. <span style=\"color: #800080;\">It is <strong>Muslims<\/strong> whose numbers are <strong>\u201clike the stars and the sands on the seashore\u201d<\/strong><\/span>\u2013(Gen. 22:17). Now the Christians have translated the same Hebrew word, which means \u201cfruitful\u201d or \u201cplentiful\u201d from the verb para\u2013identical with the Arabic <em>wefera<\/em> \u2013in their versions \u201ca wild ass\u201d!\u00a0 <span style=\"color: #800080;\"><strong>Is it not a shame and impiety<\/strong> <\/span>to call Ishmael \u201ca wild ass\u201d whom God styles \u201cFruitful\u201d or \u201cPlentiful\u201d?\u201d (pp. 30-32.
