Mecca and Kaaba in the Bible

Mecca and the Kaaba:• Isaiah 35

1 The desert and the parched land will be glad; the wilderness will rejoice and blossom. …..8 And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it.

"Behold! We gave the site, To Abraham, of the (Sacred) House [That is the Kaaba that he built], (Saying): 'Associate not anything (In worship) with Me; And sanctify My House For those who compass it round, Or stand up, Or bow, or prostrate themselves (Therein in prayer). And proclaim the Pilgrimage among men: they will come to thee on foot and (mounted) on every kind of camel, lean on account of journeys through deep and distant mountain highways; (The Noble Quran, 22:26-27)"

• Allah Almighty Gave a Divine Promise that they shall come to Mecca for Pilgrimage from all over the world: Quran 22:26-27.

– This is further elaborated on in

Isaiah 606 The multitude of camels shall cover thee,…7 …and I will glorify the house of my glory.

• Malachi 3:1, GOD Almighty prepares the way for a "SUDDEN COMING" of a Prophet to His Temple.

• "And as for Ishmael, I have heard you: I will surely bless him; I will make him fruitful and will greatly increase his numbers. He will be the father of twelve rulers, and I will make him into a great nation. (From the NIV Bible, Genesis 17:20)“

• So what is the definition of “Great Nation”?

"What other nation is so great as to have their gods near them the way the LORD our God is near us whenever we pray to him? And what other nation is so great as to have such righteous decrees and laws as this body of laws I am setting before you today? (From the NIV Bible, Deuteronomy 4:7-8)“

• Deuteronomy 18:18, one Prophet will be sent from the Jews' cousins who will be the final Messenger. The word "awkh" means both brother and cousin, in Hebrew.

– The verse doesn’t say the Prophet will come from YOU! It says from your cousins.

• In Deuteronomy 2:4, 8, "awkh" was used for the Edomites (Arabs, Ishmaelites) in relation to the Jews.

• Also in Obadiah 1:8-13, Edom (Arabs) is called Jacob’s brother in verses 10 and 12.

• Note: Many Jewish Prophets, LIKE MOSES, came after Moses. Prophet Muhammad was an Ishmaelite Prophet that came from the Jews’ brothers.

• And if it must mean that Deuteronomy 18:18 must refer to Christ, who came 1000s of years after Moses, then why can't it be about Muhammad, who also came thousands of years after Moses? – After all, both Muhammad and Moses received the AL-THIKR

(the Law). The entire Bible is built on the Law of Moses, and Islam is built on the Law of the Quran. See Quran 21:48, 21:105, 37:114-122.

– Furthermore, Moses was called the Mustafa (Chosen One for the Law), and Muhammad too was called that as well. See Quran 7:144.

– Moses also was the Imam (leader) who lead his people. Muhammad too was that as well: Quran 11:17.

– Moses received the DETAILED SCRIPTURES AND RELIGION, and so did Muhammad: Quran 6:154, 23:49.

– Moses prophesied about a future Prophet leading an army of 10,000 Believers: Deuteronomy 33:1-5. • Deuteronomy 33:1-5

1 Now this is the blessing with which Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death. 2 And he said: “The Lord came from Sinai, And dawned on them from Seir; He shone forth from Mount Paran, And He came with ten thousands of saints; From His right hand Came a fiery law for them. – The Jews already had the Law of Moses with them. So what is

this new Law that GOD Almighty will send? » Yet Deuteronomy 33:1-2, speak about a future Law coming

from GOD Almighty.

» The Muslims liberated Mecca and they were 10,000 Believers of Allah Almighty.

• The New Testament further renews this Prophecy by prophesying it. So this Prophecy WAS NEVER FULFILLED in the Old Testament.

Jude 1:14-1514 Now Enoch, the seventh from Adam, ALSO PROPHESIED about these men, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints, 15 to execute judgment on all, to convict all who are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have committed in an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things which ungodly sinners have spoken against Him.”

• The ONLY WAR that ever took place in all of the Abrahamic Religions’ history that involved precisely an army of 10,000 Believers was the battle of Mecca’s liberation by Prophet Muhammad and his men.

• Again, let us remember that in the New Testament, Christ is recorded to have said this to the Jews: "So [For this reason; Therefore] I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to people [a nation] who do the things God wants in his kingdom [will produce its fruit]." (Matthew 21:43).

• Jesus Christ here spoke about foreign people; non-Jews. Jesus was a Jew and was speaking with Jews. Read more... - By the way, the "Kingdom of God" here means THE COVENANT & RELIGION OF GOD on earth to the new nation.

• John 1:19-21 John was asked if he were the Messiah, Elijah, and then "The Prophet“.

• John 7:40-44, Jesus was supposed to come from David's line, while the Prophet’s bloodline was NOT mentioned, despite the fact that the Prophet was mentioned. He was a foreigner.

• So the awaited Messiah and the awaited "the Prophet" were clearly TWO DIFFERENT PERSONS, who are strangers to each others, and are not from the same bloodline.

John 1:19-21John the Baptist Tells People About Jesus19 Here is the ·truth John told [testimony John gave; witness of John; 1:6] when the ·leaders [Jewish leadership; L Jews; C John often uses the term “Jews” to refer to the religious leaders in opposition to Jesus, rather than to the Jewish people generally] in Jerusalem sent ·priests and Levites [C the religious authorities; priests oversaw temple worship; Levites were members of the tribe of Levi who assisted them; 1 Chr. 23:24–32] to ask him, “Who are you?”

20 John ·spoke freely [confessed] and did not ·refuse to answer [deny it]. He said, “I am not the ·Christ [Messiah].”21 So they asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah?” [C Elijah, an OT prophet, was expected to come back before the Messiah; 1 Kin. 17—2 Kin. 2; Mal. 4:5–6.]

He answered, “No, I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” [C the Prophet like Moses predicted in Deut. 18:15–19] they asked.

He answered, “No.”

John 7:40-44The People Argue About Jesus40 When the people heard Jesus’ words, some of them said, “This man really is the Prophet [1:21; C the “prophet like Moses” of Deut. 18:15–18].”41 Others said, “He is the ·Christ [Messiah].” Still others said, “The ·Christ [Messiah] will not come from Galilee.

42 The Scripture says that the ·Christ [Messiah] will come from David’s ·family [offspring; L seed; 2 Sam. 7:12–16; Ps. 89:3–4; Is. 9:7; 55:3] and from Bethlehem, the ·town [village] where David lived [Mic. 5:2].” 43 So ·the people did not agree with each other [L there was a division in the crowd] about Jesus. 44 Some of them wanted to ·arrest [seize] him, but no one was able to ·touch [L lay a hand on] him.

An Arabian Prophet was expected by the Jews of Arabia:

• From some of the Muslim sources, see the following references: "Bring forward the most learned among you before me." When that man came forward, he and Muhammad spoke in private. Finally Muhammad asked him, "Do you know that I am the Apostle of Allah?" The rabbi answered, "By Allah! Yes, and the people know what I know. Verily your attributes and qualities are clearly mentioned in the Torah, but they are jealous of you." (History of Muhammad Ibn Sa'd, Volume I, Pages 188) "...and he is the Prophet of these people; he is an Arab and the Jews are jealous of him wishing that he should have been an Israelite..." (History of Muhammad Ibn Sa'd, Volume I, Pages 177)

• Also Paul makes an interesting reference about Hagar and Arabia:

– Galatians 4:25 “Now Hagar stands for Mount Sinai in Arabia . . .”

– So the Bible’s “Mount Sinai” wasn’t even geographically located in Egypt. It was in Arabia.

The Arabian Prophet from the EAST:

• Isaiah 41:1 Let the people of the world have a fresh heart. • Isaiah 41:2 A servant coming from the EAST.

• The Ishmaelites WERE called the EAST: Genesis 16:11-13, Judges 7:12, Book of Jubilees 20:13.

• Isaiah 41:3 He shall rout the disbelievers in battle (put them to the sword).

• Isaiah 41:8-13 GOD Almighty assures the House of Jacob that they are still loved and chosen by GOD Almighty. “Do not be afraid (of this Servant).”

• GOD Almighty never called unto all Jews as “The House of Jacob” , a comprehensive name, to follow any Jewish Prophet. It was always a given.

• This is another clear-cut proof that this Servant is a non-Jew.

• The Bible also clearly says that he is an Ishmaelite.

• Isaiah 41:18 The desert (i.e., Arabia) will be blessed with lots of pools of fresh water, and running streams, and green.

• Isaiah 41:25Contemporary English Version (CEV)

25 I, the Lord, appointed a ruler in the north (Madina is north of Mecca); now he comes from the EAST to honor my name. He tramples kings like mud, as potters trample clay. – FOOTNOTE (Knox Bible) Isaias 41:25 There is the same uncertainty here about the

person alluded to, as in verse 2 above.

– They say they’re not sure who that Servant from the EAST is! This is further proof that Christ does not fit the description.

• Isaiah 41:27 This is good news to Jerusalem:

– Quran 7:157 (My mercy is for) those who follow the messenger, the prophet who can neither read nor write. They will find him mentioned in their scriptures, the Torah and the gospels. He orders them to do the right thing, and to avoid the wrong. He makes the pure and the wholesome lawful for them, and he forbids them the foul and the filthy. He relieves them of the burdens and the shackles with which they were bogged down. Successful indeed, are those who believe in him, honor and help him, and follow the light (the Qur’an) that was revealed to him.

• Isaiah 42:1 And now, here is my servant, to whom I grant protection, the man of my choice, greatly beloved. My spirit rests upon him, and he will proclaim right order among the Gentiles.

• Isaiah 42:3 … he will establish right order unfailingly.

• Isaiah 42:4 ... (He has a message of Peace for Mankind). He has a law to give; in the far-off lands men wait for it eagerly.... – Indeed, the deteriorating world is in a DESPERATE NEED FOR ISLAM!

• Isaiah 42:6 The Servant will bring a (new) Covenant to GOD Almighty’s people, and he will be a Light to the Gentiles.

• Isaiah 42:9 ….more Prophecies about this Servant and Covenant are yet to come.

• Isaiah 42:10 Sing the Lord a new song; let his praise sound from end to end of the earth.

– Song here means a New Revelation from GOD Almighty, i.e., the Glorious Quran.

• Isaiah 42:111599 Geneva Bible (GNV)11 Let the wilderness and the cities thereof lift up their voice, the towns that [a] Kedar doth inhabit: let the inhabitants of the rocks sing: let them shout from the top of the mountains. – Footnotes:

Isaiah 42:11 Meaning, the Arabians, under whom he comprehendeth all the people of the East.

• Isaiah 42:12 Let them (the Arabs) give glory unto the Lord, and declare his praise..

• Isaiah 42:13 The Servant shall go forth as a giant; he shall stir up his courage like a man of war: he shall shout and cry, and shall prevail against his enemies.

• Isaiah 42:18-23 Israel is called the blind and deaf servant who received MANY PROPHETS, but heard not. – Verse 21 further says: “It was ever the Lord’s will to sanctify him (the servant

Israel); so great, so glorious the law (the Law of Moses) he gave him;”

– So the “Sing the Lord a new song (Isaiah 42:10)” is a THE NEW LAW, Islam, which will come from Arabia, the East, the lands of Kedar.

• Furthermore, Isaiah 42:23 calls on to the Jews to LISTEN TO THIS NEW PROPHECY about the New Servant from Arabia:

“Which of you will listen to this, and mark it, and give a hearing to the prophecy?”

• Isaiah had this vision: "And the vision of all is become unto you as the words of a book that is sealed, which [men] deliver to one that is learned, saying, Read this, [I pray thee]: and he saith, I cannot; for it [is] sealed: And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, [I pray thee]: and he saith, I am not learned." (Isaiah 29:11-18) – Only Prophet Muhammad fulfilled it. When Angel Gabriel brought the BOOK

to the Prophet in cave Hira, and commanded him to read, the Prophet replied I can not read. I do not have the Book, nor am I literate. Then the Book was revealed to him, which started with Noble Verses:

• "Read: In the name of your Lord who created, Created man from a clot. Read: And your Lord is the Most Bounteous, Who teaches by the pen, Teaches man that which he knew not." (The Noble Quran, 96:1-5)

The Burden Upon Arabia:• Furthermore, we read about GOD Almighty’s Burden that He has put upon Arabia in

Isaiah 21.

– The Bible for example speaks about the mother’s burden to bear her child: Genesis 3:16.

– Matthew 23:4 They tie up heavy burdens, hard to bear, and lay them on people's shoulders, but they themselves are not willing to move them with their finger.

• So “Burden Upon Arabia” here means that GOD Almighty has entrusted Arabia, or put upon Arabia, the expectation to take on a certain heavy task.

• Isaiah 21 also speaks about the woes of Arabia and its corruption and evil.

• Indeed, Arabia today is ruled by zionists. All of the oil wealth is in the West. According to FOX News, Saudi Arabia has invested close to 1 Trillion US Dollars of its oil money in the USA. Meanwhile, half of the Saudi nation are on the poverty line.

• Furthermore, we read the following stunning Prophecy from Isaiah 21:6-9 (KJV):• 6 For thus hath the Lord said unto me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he seeth.• 7 And he saw a chariot with a couple of horsemen, a chariot of asses, and a chariot of

camels; and he hearkened diligently with much heed:• 8 And he cried, A lion: My lord, I stand continually upon the watchtower in the daytime, and I

am set in my ward whole nights:• 9 And, behold, here cometh a chariot of men, with a couple of horsemen. And he answered

and said, Babylon is fallen, is fallen; and all the graven images of her gods he hath broken unto the ground.

• Islam indeed came and smashed all of the idols in Arabia to the ground.• Arabia is called the Virgin daughter of Babylon in the Bible: Isaiah 47:1. It’s a virgin because

it never had Islam before:– Quran 34:44 But We had not given them Books which they could study, nor sent

apostles to them before thee as Warners. • Since Jesus Christ will return as an Arab from the EAST, then the two Chariots here are Jesus

and Muhammad:– Matthew 24:25-27

27 For as lightning that comes from the east is visible even in the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

– Prophet Jesus entered Jerusalem on an ass: John 12:14. – Prophet Muhammad owned a camel and entered both Mecca and Medina on his camel,

and fought his battles on his camel.

Arabia’s Fruits are yet to come:• Isaiah 47:1 and Jeremiah 51:33, give a mighty prophecy against the pagan

religions of Arabia, and prophesied about its end, and replacement with a NEW DIVINE RELIGION.

• Isaiah 47:1 Come down, and sit in the dust, O virgin daughter of Babylon, sit on the ground: there is no throne, O daughter of the Chaldeans: for thou shalt no more be called tender and delicate.

• Jeremiah 51:33 For thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; The daughter of Babylon is like a threshing floor, it is time to thresh her: yet a little while, and the time of her harvest shall come.

• Arabia’s harvest is indeed the Divine Religion, Islam. GOD Almighty’s Original Faith on Earth, and the RELIGION OF THE PEOPLE OF KEDAR is Islam. Muhammad was the Servant of GOD Almighty to come, that was mentioned in Isaiah 41 & 42.

• Tema and Kedar, which the lands of Arabia are named after in the Bible and in the chapters that I mentioned, are two of Ishamel’s sons: Genesis 25:13-15.

Islam came to Restore the Original Faith

• "The Religion before God is Islam (االسالم)...." (The Noble Quran, 3:19).

• Islam is also called "ways of peace and safety السالم .(The Noble Quran, 5:16) “ سبل

• Islam is also "O ye who believe! Enter into SELEM ( السلم .(The Noble Quran, 2:208) "في

– In the Hebrew Bible, this is also called SHELEM and SHALOM, which are equivalent to the Glorious Quran’s SELEM, which is another name for Islam.

• Matthew 21:43 The kingdom of God (this also refers to the earthly covenant of GOD) shall be taken from you, and given to a nation bringing forth the fruits thereof.

– Notice how Christ didn’t say “My Nation”. He spoke about a Foreign Nation.

• Also, Salamis, Mushlams, Mushlems, Shlam, Shlama, Mashloome, Mushlimana, Mishlamana, Mishlam are all titles of the Believers. For example, we read in Luke 6:40 the following from Jesus himself:

Luke 6:40“A student is not above his teacher. But everyone who is a MUSHLEM (perfect) is on the same level as his teacher.”

– Here Christ is saying that we are all in various levels and hierarchies in life. But as Muslims, we are all equal.

• Also, according to Jewish Rabbi and Historian Ben Abrahamson, and the Jewish Rabbis that belong to his school, the Jews’ original title was indeed Muslims, but they changed it to “Jews” to distinguish themselves from the other Believers.

• We also bless Abraham by saying “Peace be upon him”, and also mention his Blessing during our Daily Prayers.

• Islam is also called the Religion of Abraham: Quran 2:130 and 3:95.

• This all in harmony with the following from Genesis 12:2-3:

“I will make you into a great nation, and I will bless you;I will make your name great,and you will be a blessing.I will bless those who bless you,and whoever curses you I will curse;and all peoples on earthwill be blessed through you.”

• All of Islam’s Rituals are in harmony with the Previous Scriptures’ Laws.

• Circumambulation (tawaaf) 7 times around the Kaaba is also by the exact number in the Bible:

Joshua 6:1615 On the seventh day, they got up at daybreak and marched around the city seven times in the same manner, except that on that day they circled the city seven times.

So there are previous Rituals, not mentioned in the Bible, that required Circumambulation (tawaaf) 7 times around the House of GOD Almighty.

• The Islamic Fasting, Prostrating to GOD Almighty in Worship, Doing Pilgrimage are all pillars of the Original Faith, and each one of them is supported in the Bible's Scriptures, and also outside of the Bible's Scriptures.

• Psalm 138:2 “I will bow to you in the direction of your Holy Temple.”, • Genesis 28:16-18.• Judges 20:18.• 1 Chronicles 6:47-49. • Numbers 24:3-5.• Deuteronomy 9:17-19. • Deuteronomy 9:25.• 1 Kings 18:39.• Matthew 26:39 (Jesus worshiped the Muslims’ way).• Genesis 47:9.• Psalm 119:54.• Nehemiah 9:1.• Esther 4:3.• Psalm 35:13.• Psalm 69:10.• Daniel 6:18.• Matthew 15:32.

• Luke5:33 They said to him, “John’s disciples often fast and pray, and so do the disciples of the Pharisees, but yours go on eating and drinking.”

• Matthew 6:16 "When you fast, do not look somber as the hypocrites do, for they disfigure their faces to show others they are fasting. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full."

• Note on the black stone:

• The black stone was an asteroid that GOD Almighty sent down to determine the location of the Kaaba to Abraham and his son Ishmael.

• The black stone is used as the starting point for the Circumambulation (tawaaf) 7 times around the Kaaba.

•

Prophet Muhammad said: "Demolishing the Kaaba completely is much easier upon Allah Almighty than shedding the blood of a single Believing Muslim."

• One of the Bible’s 10 Commandments: Do not make graven images that resemble any creation whether on earth or in Heavens: Exodus 20:1-6, Deuteronomy 5:1-10. VS

• Build two huge birds inside the Temple of GOD: Exodus 25:1-40, Exodus 37:1-9, Exodus 26:1-20, Exodus 36:8-19, 1 Kings 6:11-38 (to Solomon), 2 Chronicles 3:1-17 (also to Solomon). GOD ALMIGHTY WILL EVEN MEET MOSES BETWEEN THEM.

– In the New Testament, Jesus recognized that the gold is made sacred because it is in the temple: Matthew 23:16-22: 17 You blind fools! Which is greater: the gold, or the temple that makes the gold sacred?

• Yet, Psalm 138:2 “I will bow to you in the direction of your Holy Temple.”

• So are you now bowing to the two big birds and rest of the objects made from gold?

• Islam’s Rituals are all Original and non came from pagan sources. It was the pagans who adopted the Original Islam into their pagan practices.

Is Allah the GOD of all?

• Did you know that Elohim is Allah? – The "im" in Hebrew is a majestic plural for GOD Almighty.

– The root Word is "Eloh“ or Allah. And the more original Jews such as Yemenites and others say Alohim or Alah-im.

– And when you yourself pronounce it, you do naturally pronounce it with a double "l": Allah.

– Jews do call Him: Allah-im.

– Aramaic-speaking people also call GOD Almighty Allah.

– Also, pre-Islamic Biblical archeological findings have GOD Almighty as "Allah". So the Original Holy Name for GOD Almighty is Allah! Eloh is a Hebrew dialect, which not all Hebrew speakers use anyway. Visit: www.answering-christianity.com/allah6.htm

– Allah had always been the Original and Universal GOD Almighty even before birth of Judaism, and the existence Hebrew. And Hebrew is a developed language from Phoenician.

– Allah in Glorious Quran is also “Lah”. For example, Alhamdu Lillah (Thanks to Al-Lah). It doesn’t say Li-Allah. No, it says Lillah.

• So Lah is GOD, and Allah is THE GOD ALMIGHTY.
