And when they are present God shall say to them: “Remember you that which my Messenger affirms?” They shall reply: “What thing, O Lord?” God shall say: “That I have made all things for love of him, so that all things might praise me by him.” ‘Then every one of them shall answer: “There are with us

An Exploration into the Gospel of Barnabas with the Context of

New Testament Books.

In the Name of Allah Most Merciful Most Beneficent

This is a contextual explanation of Gospel of Barnabas with the prophesies in the

Bible, regarding the Life of Jesus Christ (A.S).

Gospel of Barnabas Chapter 55. The Messenger of God on the Day of Judgment ‘The Messenger of God shall go to collect all the prophets, to whom he shall speak praying them to go with him to pray God for the faithful. And every one shall excuse himself for fear; nor, as God lives, would I go there, knowing what I know. Then God, seeing this, shall remind his Messenger how he created all things for love of him, and so his fear shall leave him, and he shall go near to the throne with love and reverence, while the angels sing: “Blessed be your holy name, O God, our God.” ‘And when he has drawn near to the throne, God shall open [his mind] to his Messenger, even as a friend to a friend when for a long while they have not met. The first to speak shall be the Messenger of God, who shall say: “I adore and love you, O my God, and with all my heart and soul I give you thanks for that you did vouchsafe to create me to be your servant, and made all for love of me, so that I might love you for all things and in all things and above all things; therefore let all your creatures praise you, O my God.” ‘Then God shall say: “We give you thanks, O Lord, and bless your holy name.” Truly I say to you, the demons and reprobates with Satan shall then weep so that more water shall flow from the eyes of one of them than is in the river of Jordan. Yet shall they not see God. And God shall speak to his Messenger, saying: “You are welcome, O my faithful servant; therefore ask what you will, for you shall obtain all.” The Messenger of God shall answer: “O Lord, I remember

that when you did create me, you said that you had willed to make for love of me the world

and paradise, and angels and men, that they might glorify you by me your servant.

Therefore, Lord God, merciful and just. I pray you that you recollect your promise made to

your servant.”

‘And God shall make answer even as a friend who jests with a friend, and shall say: “Have you witnesses of this, my friend Muhammad?” And with reverence he shall say: “Yes, Lord.” Then God shall answer: “Go, call them, O Gabriel.” The angel Gabriel shall come to the Messenger of God, and shall say: “Lord, who are your witnesses?” The Messenger of God shall answer: “They are Adam, Abraham, Ishmael, Moses, David, and Jesus son of Mary?” Then shall the angel depart and he shall call the aforesaid witnesses, who with fear shall go thither. And when they are present God shall say to them: “Remember you that which my Messenger affirms?” They shall reply: “What thing, O Lord?” God shall say: “That I have made all things for love of him, so that all things might praise me by him.” ‘Then every one of them shall answer: “There are with us

three witnesses better than we are, O Lord.” And God shall reply: “Who are these three witnesses?” Then Moses shall say: “The book that you gave to me is the first;” and David shall say: “The book that you gave to me is the second;” and he who speaks to you shall say: “Lord, the whole world, deceived by Satan, that I was your son and your fellow, but the book that you gave me said truly that I am your servant; and that book confesses that which your Messenger affirms.” Then shall the Messenger of God speak, and shall say: “Thus says the book that you gave me, O Lord.” And when the Messenger of God has said this, God shall speak, saying: “All that I have now done, I have done in order that every one should know how much I love you.” And when he has thus spoken, God shall give to his Messenger a book, in which are written all the names of the elect of God. Wherefore every creature shall do reverence to God, saying: “To you alone, O God, be glory and honour, because you have given us to your Messenger.”

Gospel of Barnabas 41. The expulsion from Paradise

...............‘God hid himself [from Adam and Eve], and the angel Michael drove them forth

from paradise. Then, Adam, turning around, saw written above the gate, “There is only one

God, and Muhammad is Messenger of God.”

THE PROPHET OF THE JUDGEMENT DAY IN NEW TESTAMENT:

John 14:16 Aramaic Bible in Plain English

“And I shall request from my Father and he will give you another Redeemer of the accursed,

that he will be with you for eternity.”

John 14:16 King James Bible And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another

Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;

IN OLD TESTAMENT:

Job 16:19 Even now my witness is in heaven; my advocate is on high.

HOLY ONE OF MOUNT PARAN (MOUNTAINS OF PARAN SITUATED IN WESTERN

ARABIA WHERE KEDAR LIVES)

Habakkuk 3:3 I see God moving across the deserts from Edom, the Holy One coming

from Mount Paran. His brilliant splendor fills the heavens, and the earth is filled with his

praise.

Deuteronomy 33:2 He said: "The LORD came from Sinai and dawned over them from Seir;

he shone forth from Mount Paran. He came with myriads of holy ones from the south, from

his mountain slopes.

Isaiah 42:11 Let the wilderness and its towns raise their voices; let the settlements

where Kedar lives rejoice. Let the people of Sela sing for joy; let them shout from the

mountaintops.

IN QURAN:

5:48 And We have revealed to you, [O Muúammad], the Book in truth, confirming that

which preceded it of the Scripture and as a criterion over it. So judge between them

by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has

come to you of the truth

IN HADITH: FIRST TO SPEAK ON THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT:

Sahih Bukhari: Narrated Ibn Umar: On the Day of Resurrection the people will fall on their

knees and every nation will follow their prophet and they will say, "O so-and-so! Intercede

(for us with Allah), "till (the right) intercession is given to the Prophet (Muhammad) and that

will be the day when Allah will raise him into a station of praise and glory (i.e. Al-Maqam -al-

Mahmud). (Book 60, Hadith 242)

REDEEMER OF THE ACCURSED IN ETERNITY:

Sahih Bukhari,Narrated 'Imran bin Husain: The Prophet said, "Some people will be taken

out of the Fire through the intercession of Muhammad they will enter Paradise and will be

called Al-Jahannamiyin (the Hell Fire people)." (Book 76, Hadith 571)

Sahih Bukhari: Narrated Abu Huraira: We were in the company of the Prophet at a banquet

and a cooked (mutton) forearm was set before him, and he used to like it. He ate a morsel of

it and said, "I will be the chief of all the people on the Day of Resurrection. Do you know

how Allah will gather all the first and the last (people) in one level place where an observer

will be able to see (all) of them and they will be able to hear the announcer, and the sun will

come near to them. Some People will say: Don't you see, in what condition you are and the

state to which you have reached? Why don't you look for a person who can intercede for you

with your Lord? Some people will say: Appeal to your father, Adam.' They will go to him and

say: 'O Adam! You are the father of all mankind, and Allah created you with His Own Hands,

and ordered the angels to prostrate for you, and made you live in Paradise. Will you not

intercede for us with your Lord? Don't you see in what (miserable) state we are, and to what

condition we have reached?' On that Adam will reply, 'My Lord is so angry as He has never

been before and will never be in the future; (besides), He forbade me (to eat from) the tree,

but I disobeyed (Him), (I am worried about) myself! Myself! Go to somebody else; go to

Noah.' They will go to Noah and say; 'O Noah! You are the first amongst the messengers of

Allah to the people of the earth, and Allah named you a thankful slave. Don't you see in what

a (miserable) state we are and to what condition we have reached? Will you not intercede for

us with your Lord? Noah will reply: 'Today my Lord has become so angry as he had never

been before and will never be in the future Myself! Myself! Go to the Prophet (Muhammad).

The people will come to me, and I will prostrate myself underneath Allah's Throne.

Then I will be addressed: 'O Muhammad! Raise your head; intercede, for your

intercession will be accepted, and ask (for anything). for you will be given. " (Book 55,

Hadith 556)

GOD SAVED JESUS CHRIST (A.S) FROM PERSECUTION AND DEATH:

Gospel of Barnabas 215. Jesus is taken from the world by the angels When the soldiers with Judas drew near to the place where Jesus was, Jesus heard the approach of many people, wherefore in fear he withdrew into the house. And the eleven were sleeping. Then God, seeing the danger of his servant, commanded Gabriel, Michael, Rafael, and Uriel, his ministers, to take Jesus out of the world. The holy angels came and took Jesus out by the window that looks toward the South. They bare him and placed him in the third heaven in the company of angels blessing God for evermore. Gospel of Barnabas 216. Judas Iscariot’s transformation Judas entered impetuously before all into the chamber whence Jesus had been taken up. And the disciples were sleeping. Whereupon the wonderful God acted wonderfully, insomuch that Judas was so changed in speech and in face to be like Jesus that we believed him to be Jesus. And he, having awakened us, was seeking where the Master was. Whereupon we marvelled, and answered: ‘You, Lord, are our master; have you now forgotten us?’ And he, smiling, said: ‘Now are you foolish, that know not me to be Judas Iscariot!’ And as he was saying this the soldiery entered, and laid their hands upon Judas, because he was in every way like to Jesus. We having heard Judas’ saying, and seeing the multitude of soldiers, fled as beside ourselves. And John, who was wrapped in a linen cloth, awoke and fled, and when a soldier seized him by the linen cloth he left the linen cloth and fled naked. For God heard the prayer of Jesus, and saved the eleven from evil.

Gospel of Barnabas: 13. The remarkable fear of Jesus and his prayer,

and the wonderful comfort of the angel Gabriel

Some days having passed, Jesus having in spirit perceived the

desire of the priests, ascended the Mount of Olives to pray. And

having passed the whole night in prayer, in the morning Jesus

praying said: ‘O Lord, I know that the scribes hate me, and the

priests are minded to kill me, thy servant; therefore, Lord God

almighty and merciful, in mercy hear the prayers of the servant,

and save me from their snares, for thou art my salvation. Thou

knowest, Lord, that I thy servant seek thee alone, O Lord, and

speak thy word; for thy word is truth, which endureth for ever.’

When Jesus had spoken these words, behold there came to

him the angel Gabriel, saying: ‘Fear not, O Jesus, for a thousand

thousand who dwell above the heaven guard thy garments, and

thou shalt not die till everything be fulfilled, and the world shall

be near its end.’

Jesus fell with his face to the ground, saying: ‘O great Lord

God, how great is thy mercy upon me, and what shall I give

thee, Lord, for all that thou hast granted me?’ The angel Gabriel

answered: ‘Arise, Jesus, and remember Abraham, who being

willing to make sacrifice to God of his only-begotten son Ishmael,

to fulfil the word of God, and the knife not being able to cut

his son, at my word offered in sacrifice a sheep. Even so therefore

shalt thou do, O Jesus, servant of God.’

Jesus answered: ‘Willingly, but where shall I find the lamb,

seeing I have no money, and it is not lawful to steal it?’ Thereupon

the angel Gabriel showed unto him a sheep, which Jesus

offered in sacrifice, praising and blessing God, who is glorious forever.

In The New Testament and Old Testament:

Hebrews 5:7 While Jesus was here on earth, he offered prayers and pleadings, with a loud

cry and tears, to the one who could rescue him from death. And God heard his prayers

because of his deep reverence for God.

John 8:21 Once more Jesus said to them, "I am going away, and you will look for me, and

you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come."

Comment: they will look for him to kill him, but will not be found him!. This is clear in Gospel

of Barnabas, that Angels lifted him to heavens.

See John 8:23 But he continued, "You are from below; I am from above. You are of this

world; I am not of this world.

See: Psalm 91:10 No evil will befall you, Nor will any plague come near your tent. 11 For He

will give His angels charge concerning you, To guard you in all your ways. 12 They will bear

you up in their hands, That you do not strike your foot against a stone.…

Luke 4: 10 for it is written, 'HE WILL COMMAND HIS ANGELS CONCERNING YOU TO

GUARD YOU,' 11 and, 'ON their HANDS THEY WILL BEAR YOU UP, SO THAT YOU WILL

NOT STRIKE YOUR FOOT AGAINST A STONE.'"…

A Person of Weak Faith in God was Crucified:

Matthew 27:46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, "Eli, Eli, lema

sabachthani?" (which means "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?").

Comments: The above verse in Matthew cannot be attributed to Jesus Christ who is in

closest relationship with God eternally, according to Trinitarian Christians he is equal to God

in glory and power. But this verse in Matthew 22:46 clearly fit on Judas Iscariot which the

Judas despised who says to God why have forsaken me!.

Because: See Matthew 16:28 "Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste

death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom."

If it is not Jesus Christ (Peace be upon him) who is then Matthew 16:28 speaking about!,

true Christians can know that person by the power of Holy Spirit, can't they?

Also See John 14:11 believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the Father is in

me; or at least believe on the evidence of the works themselves.

John 17:21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.

May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.

Comments: One must study Sufism to understand this reality of Union with God through the

Prophet/Spiritual Guide, is known as "Fana FiLLAH", through Fana Fi Shaykh and Fana Fi

Nabi , Fana means Spiritual annihilation in the Divine Ocean of Love.

Also if it is words of Christ which is: "Oh God Why have you forsaken me", directly contradict trinity

belief of Father Son and Holy Spirit are equal in Glory and Power!

See John 8:29 The one who sent me is with me; he has not left me alone, for I always do what pleases

him."

DISCIPLES CAN FORSAKE CHRIST, BUT GOD NEVER FORSAKE HIS SERVANT

JESUS CHRIST (A.S)

John 16:32 "A time is coming and in fact has come when you will be scattered, each to your

own home. You will leave me all alone. Yet I am not alone, for my Father is with me.

THEREFORE TO BELIEVE JESUS DIED AS A SACRIFICE TO GOD FOR THE SINS OF

WORLD IS NOT RELIABLE:

See: John 16:2 They will put you out of the synagogue; in fact, the time is coming when

anyone who kills you will think they are offering a service to God.

This Kinds of human thoughts later take precedence and become a Faith!

IN QURAN:

Quran 4:157-158 And [for] their saying, "Indeed, we have killed the Messiah, Jesus, the son

of Mary, the messenger of Allah ." And they did not kill him, nor did they crucify him; but

[another] was made to resemble him to them. And indeed, those who differ over it are in

doubt about it. They have no knowledge of it except the following of assumption. And they

did not kill him, for certain.

EVERYONE WILL SURRENDER TO TRUE FAITH BEFORE THE DEATH OF JESUS

CHRIST (A.S)

Quran 4:159 And there is none from the People of the Scripture but that he will surely

believe in Jesus before his death. And on the Day of Resurrection he will be against them a

witness.

Just as everyone on earth believed and followed David (A.S), God will grant Jesus Christ

(A.S) sure blessings of David, before his death!

See Psalm 132:10 For the sake of your servant David, do not reject your anointed one.

Acts 13:34 ... As God has said, "'I will give you the holy and sure blessings promised to

David.'

CIRUMCISION:

Gospel of Barnabas 22. Miserable condition of the uncircumcised

The disciples questioned Jesus on that day, saying: ‘O master, why didst thou make such answer to the woman, saying that they were dogs?’ Jesus answered: ‘Verily I say unto you that a dog is better than an uncircumcised man.’ Then were the disciples sorrowful, saying: ‘Hard are these words, and who shall be able to receive them?’

Jesus answered: ‘If ye consider, O foolish ones, what the dog doth, that hath no reason, for the service of his master, ye will find my saying to be true. Tell me, doth the dog guard the house of his master, and expose his life against the robber? ‘Yea, assuredly. But what receiveth he? Many blows and injuries with little bread, and he always showeth to his master a joyful countenance. Is this true?’ ‘True it is, O master,’ answered the disciples. Then said Jesus: ‘Consider now how much God hath given to man, and ye shall see how unrighteous he is in not observing the covenant of God made with Abraham his servant. Remember that which David said to Saul king of Israel, against Goliath the Philistine: “My lord,” said David, “while thy servant was keeping thy servant’s flock there came the wolf, the bear, and

the lion and seized thy servant’s sheep: whereupon thy servant went and slew them, rescuing the sheep. And what is this uncircumcised one but like unto them? Therefore will thy servant go in the name of the Lord God of Israel, and will slay this unclean one that blasphemeth the holy people of God.”’ Then said the disciples: ‘Tell us, O master, for what reason man must needs be circumcised?’ Jesus answered: ‘Let it suffice you that God hath commanded it to Abraham, saying: “Abraham, circumcise thy foreskin and that of all thy house, for this is a covenant between me and thee forever.”’

IN OLD TESTAMENT:

Genesis 17:7 I will establish my covenant as an everlasting covenant between me and you

and your descendants after you for the generations to come, to be your God and the God of

your descendants after you.

Genesis 17:9-10-11 Then God said to Abraham, "As for you, you must keep my covenant, you

and your descendants after you for the generations to come. This is my covenant with you and

your descendants after you, the covenant you are to keep: Every male among you shall be

circumcised. You are to undergo circumcision, and it will be the sign of the covenant between me

and you. (NIV)

Genesis 17:13 Whether born in your household or bought with your money, they must be

circumcised. My covenant in your flesh is to be an everlasting covenant.

Genesis 17:14 Any uncircumcised male, who has not been circumcised in the flesh, will be

cut off from his people; he has broken my covenant."

See Luke 13:28 "There will be weeping there, and gnashing of teeth, when you see Abraham,

Isaac and Jacob and all the prophets in the kingdom of God, but you yourselves thrown out

Matthew 13:41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will gather out of his kingdom all

causes of sin and all law-breakers,

2 Thessalonians 2:8 And then the lawless one will be revealed, whom the Lord Jesus will

overthrow with the breath of his mouth and destroy by the splendor of his coming.

Matthew 15:9 They worship me in vain; their teachings are merely human rules.'"

Isaiah 66:17 "Those who consecrate and purify themselves to go into the gardens, following one

who is among those who eat the flesh of pigs, rats and other unclean things--they will meet their

end together with the one they follow," declares the LORD.

Mark 7:9 And he continued, "You have a fine way of setting aside the commands of God in order

to observe your own traditions!

IN QURAN:

Quran 2:130 And who would be averse to the religion of Abraham except one who makes a fool

of himself. And We had chosen him in this world, and indeed he, in the Hereafter, will be among

the righteous.

Quran 3:67 Abraham was neither a Jew nor a Christian, but he was one inclining toward truth, a

Muslim [submitting to Allah ]. And he was not of the polytheists.

2:135 They say, "Be Jews or Christians [so] you will be guided." Say, "Rather, [we follow] the

religion of Abraham, inclining toward truth, and he was not of the polytheists."

THE MESSENGER OF GOD AFTER JESUS CHRIST (A.S)

Gospel of Barnabas 36. About prayer The disciples stood in great amazement at the rebellion of the angels. Then Jesus said: ‘Truly I say to you, that he who makes not prayer is more wicked than Satan, and shall suffer greater torments. Because Satan had, before his fall, no example of fearing, nor did God so much as send him any prophet to invite him to repentance: but man now that all the prophets are come except the Messenger of God who shall come after me, because so God wills, and that I may prepare his way

Gospel of Barnabas 43 Promise of the Messiah:

Wherefore I say to you that God, truly because he is perfect, has not need of satisfaction, seeing that he has satisfaction himself. And so, willing to work, he created before all things the soul of his Messenger, for whom he determined to create the whole, in order that the creatures should

find joy and blessedness in God, whence his Messenger should take delight in all his creatures, which he has appointed to be his slaves. And wherefore is this so, save because thus he has willed?

But the Messenger of God, when he shall come, God shall give to him as it were the seal of his hand, in so much that he shall carry salvation and mercy to all the nations of the world

that shall receive his doctrine. He shall come with power upon the ungodly, and shall destroy idolatry, in so much that he shall make Satan confounded; for so promised God to Abraham, saying: “Behold, in your seed I will bless all the tribes of the earth; and as you have broken in pieces the idols, O Abraham, even so shall your seed do.”’

Quran: 21:107 And We have not sent you, [O Muhammad], except as a mercy to the worlds.

Isaiah 42:17 But those who trust in idols, who say to images, 'You are our gods,' will be turned

back in utter shame.

THE GREATEST MESSIAH:

James answered: ‘O master, tell us in whom this promise was

made; for the Jews say “in Isaac,” and the Ishmaelites say “in Ishmael.”’ Jesus answered: ‘David, whose son was he, and of what lineage?’ James answered: ‘Of Isaac; for Isaac was father of Jacob, and Jacob was father of Judah, of whose lineage is David.’ Then Jesus said: ‘And the Messenger of God when he shall come, of what lineage will he be?’ The disciples answered: ‘Of David.’ Whereupon Jesus said: ‘You deceive yourselves; for David in spirit calls him lord, saying thus: “God said to my lord, sit you on my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool.” God shall send forth your rod which shall have lordship in the midst of your enemies. If the Messenger of God whom you call Messiah were son of David, how should David call him lord? Believe me, for truly I say to you, that the promise was made in Ishmael, not in Isaac.’

Comments: See Deuteronomy 34:10 Since then, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses,

whom the LORD knew face to face,

PROMISE FOR ONLY FOR THE DESCENDANTS OF ISAAC (A.S) NOT FOR WHOLE

WORLD:

See Genesis 17:19 Then God said, "Yes, but your wife Sarah will bear you a son, and you will

call him Isaac. I will establish my covenant with him as an everlasting covenant for his

descendants after him.

This is a covenant of priesthood ,See , because Ishmael (A.S) had to leave house and

settle in Arabia!

See Numbers 25:13 He and his descendants will have a covenant of a lasting priesthood,

because he was zealous for the honor of his God and made atonement for the Israelites."

44. Lineage and nature of the Messiah The disciples said: ‘O master, it is written in the Book of Moses, that the promise was made in Isaac.’ Jesus answered with a groan: ‘It is so written, but Moses did not write it, nor Joshua, but rather our rabbins, who do not fear God! Truly I say to you, that if you consider the words of the angel Gabriel, you shall discover the malice of our scribes and doctors. For the angel said: “Abraham, all the world shall know how God loves you; but how shall the world know the love that you bear to God? Assuredly it is necessary that you do something for love of God.” Abraham answered: “Behold the servant of God, ready to do all that which God shall will.” Then spoke God, saying to Abraham: “Take your son, your firstborn Ishmael, and come up the mountain to sacrifice him.” How is Isaac firstborn, if when Isaac was born Ishmael was seven years old?’ Then said the disciples: ‘Clear is the deception of our doctors: therefore tell us you the truth, because we know that you are sent from God.’ Then answered Jesus: ‘Truly I say to you, that Satan ever seeks to annul the laws of God; and therefore he with his followers, hypocrites and evil-doers, the former with false doctrine, the latter with lewd living, today have contaminated almost all things, so that scarcely is the truth found. Woe to the hypocrites! for the praises of this world shall turn for them into insults

and torments in hell. ‘I therefore say to you that the Messenger of God is a splendour that shall give gladness to nearly all that God has made, for he is adorned with the spirit of understanding and of counsel, the spirit of wisdom and might, the spirit of fear and love, the spirit of prudence and temperance, he is adorned with the spirit of charity and mercy, the spirit of justice and piety, the spirit of gentleness and patience, which he has received from God three times more than he has given to all his creatures.

O blessed time, when he shall come to the world! Believe me that I have seen him and have done him reverence, even as every prophet has seen him: seeing that of his spirit God gives to them prophecy. And when I saw him my soul was filled with consolation, saying: “O Mohammed, God be with you, and may he make me worthy to untie your shoelatchet, for obtaining this I shall be a great prophet and holy one of God.”’ And having said this, Jesus rendered his thanks to God.

IN THE NEW TESTAMENT AND OLD TESTAMENT:

Deuteronomy 18:18-19 I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their fellow

Israelites, and I will put my words in his mouth. He will tell them everything I command him. I

myself will call to account anyone who does not listen to my words that the prophet speaks in my

name.

John 16:7 But very truly I tell you, it is for your good that I am going away. Unless I go away,

the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send him to you.

John 16: 8 "And He, when He comes, will convict the world concerning sin and

righteousness and judgment; 9concerning sin, because they do not believe in Me; 10 and

concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father and you no longer see Me;… 11 and

concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world has been judged. 12"I have many more

things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. 13"But when He, the Spirit of truth,

comes, He will guide you into all the truth; for He will not speak on His own initiative, but

whatever He hears, He will speak; and He will disclose to you what is to come.…

Isaiah 42:21 It pleased the LORD for the sake of his righteousness to make his law great

and glorious.

Gospel of Barnabas 54. What will happen on Judgment Day:

‘When these signs be passed, there shall be darkness over the world forty years, God alone being alive, to whom be honour and glory forever. When the forty years have passed, God shall give life to his Messenger, who shall rise again like the sun, but resplendent as a thousand suns.

see 1 Corinthians 12:11 All these are the work of one and the same Spirit, and he distributes

them to each one, just as he determines.

IN HADITH

Sahih Bukhari 83:52 for the people will become unconscious on the Day of Resurrection

and I will be the first to gain conscious,

Sahih Bukhari: Narrated Jubair bin Mutim: Allah's Apostle said, "I have five names: I am

Muhammad and Ahmad; I am Al-Mahi through whom Allah will eliminate infidelity; I am Al-

Hashir who will be the first to be resurrected, the people being resurrected there after;

and I am Also Al-'Aqib (i.e. There will be no prophet after me)." (Book 56, Hadith 732)

Sahih Bukhari Narrated Jubair bin Mutim: I heard Allah's Apostle (alaihiswalathu wa salam)

saying, 'I have severAl names: I am Muhammad and I am Ahmad, and I am Al-Mahi with

whom Allah obliterates Kufr (disbelief), and I am Al-Hashir (gatherer) at whose feet

(i.e. behind whom) the people will be gathered (on the Day of Resurrection), and I am

Al-Aqib (i.e. who succeeds the other prophets in bringing about good)." (Book 60,

Hadith 419)

GOSPEL OF BARNABAS 42. Questioning by Levites and scribes Encounter on Mount Tabor

For I am not worthy to unloose the ties of the hosen or the ratchets of the shoes of the Messenger of God whom you call “Messiah,” who was made before me, and shall come after me, and shall bring the words of truth, so that his faith shall have no end.’

COMMENT: The Nalain Sharif /Holy Sandal of Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) is highly revered,

no one else have a reverence for their Prophets feet or footwear!

Peace be upon all the Prophets of God

Praise be to Allah Lord of the Worlds

GOSPEL OF BARNABAS: True gospel of Jesus

39. The creation of man

Then said John: ‘Well have you spoken, O master, but we

lack to know how man sinned through pride.’

Jesus answered: ‘When God has expelled Satan, and the angel

Gabriel had purified that mass of earth whereon Satan spat, God

created everything that lives, both of the animals that fly and

of them that walk and swim, and he adorned the world with all

that it has. One day Satan approached to the gates of paradise,

and, seeing the horses eating grass, he announced to them that if

that mass of earth should receive a soul there would be for them

grievous labour; and that therefore it would be to their advantage

to trample that piece of earth in such wise that it should be

no more good for anything.

‘The horses aroused themselves and impetuously set themselves

to run over that piece of earth which lay among lilies

and roses. Whereupon God gave spirit to that unclean portion

of earth upon which lay the spittle of Satan, which Gabriel had

taken up from the mass; and raised up the dog, who, barking,

filled the horses with fear, and they fled. Then God gave his

soul to man, while all the holy angels sang: “Blessed be your

holy name, O God our Lord.” Adam, having sprung upon his

feet, saw in the air a writing that shone like the sun, which

said: “There is only one God, and Muhammad is the Messenger

of God.”

‘Whereupon Adam opened his mouth and said: “I thank you,

O Lord my God, that you have deigned to create me; but tell

me, I pray you, what means the message of these words: ‘Muhammad

is Messenger of God. Have there been other men before

me?’” Then said God: “Be you welcome, O my servant Adam. I

tell you that you are the first man whom I have created. And he

whom you have seen [mentioned] is your son, who shall come

into the world many years hence, and shall be my Messenger, for

whom I have created all things; who shall give light to the world

when he shall come; whose soul was set in a celestial splendour

sixty thousand years before I made anything.”

‘Adam besought God, saying: “Lord, grant me this writing

upon the nails of the fingers of my hands.” Then God gave to

the first man upon his thumbs that writing; upon the thumbnail

of the right hand it said: “There is only one God,” and upon

the thumb-nail of the left it said: “Muhammad is Messenger of

God.” Then with fatherly affection the first man kissed those

words, and rubbed his eyes, and said: “Blessed be that day when

you shall come to the world.”

‘Seeing the man alone, God said: “It is not well that he should

remain alone.” Wherefore he made him to sleep, and took a rib

from near his heart, filling the place with flesh. Of that rib made

he Eve, and gave her to Adam for his wife. He set the twain of

them as lords of Paradise, to whom he said: “Behold I give to

you every fruit to eat, except the apples and the corn” whereof

he said: “Beware that in no wise you eat of these fruits, for you

shall become unclean, insomuch that I shall not suffer You to

remain here, but shall drive you forth, and you shall suffer great

miseries.”

IN ISLAM:

When Allah intended to create the creatures, He first created the "Noor" (Light) of

Muhammad. Al-Qastalani (in Al Mawahibu'l-Ladunniyah, vol. 1, pp. 5, 9, 10) has quoted the

Prophet's traditions to this effect as transmitted through Jabir ibn 'Abdullah al-Ansari and 'Ali

(a.s.). The well-known historian al-Mas'udi (in his Maruju 'dh-dhahab) quotes a lengthy

tradition from 'Ali (a.s.) to the effect that when Allah created, first of all, the Light of

Muhammad, He said to it: "You are My chosen one and the Trustee of My Light and

Guidance.

It is related that Jābir ibn ‘Abd Allāh (r) said to the Prophet (s), “O Messenger of Allāh, may

my father and mother be sacrificed for you, tell me of the first thing Allāh created before all

things.” He said: O Jābir, the first thing Allāh created was the light of your Prophet from His

light, and that light remained[1] in the midst of His Power for as long as He wished, and there

was not, at that time, a Tablet or a Pen or a Paradise or a Fire or an angel or a heaven or an

earth. And when Allāh wished to create creation, he divided that Light into four parts and

from the first made the Pen, from the second the Tablet, from the third the Throne, then He

divided the fourth into four parts [and from them created everything else]. ‘Abd al-Razzāq (d.

211) narrates it in his Musannaf. Bayhaqī (d. 458) narrates it with a different wording in

Dalā'il al-nubūwwa according to Zurqāni in his Sharh al-mawāhib (1:56 of the Matbā‘a al-

‘amira in Cairo) and Diyārbakrī in Tārīkh al-khāmis (1:20).

Ibn ‘Abbās (r) said: Verily the spirit of the Prophet (s) was a light in front of Allāh two

thousand years before he created Adam. That light glorified Him and the angels joined in its

glorification. When Allāh created Adam, he cast that light into his loins.Suyūtī said in Manāhil

al-safa (p. 53 #128): “Ibn Abi ‘Umar al-‘Adanī relates it in his Musnad.” In Takhrīj ahādīth

sharh al-mawāqif (p. 32 #12) Suyūtī cites it with the wording: “The Quraysh were a light in

front of Allāh.”

This is why Ibn 'Abbas narrates saying that the Prophet said: "I was Prophet when Adam

was between soul and body (i.e. when Adam's creation was in its preliminary stages)" (at-

Tabarani, Al-Mu'jjam al-Kabir; Al Khasa'is al-Kubra, vol.1, p.4).

GOSPEL OF BARNABAS CHAPTER 41 ...Continued ON LAWLESSNESS:

Then answered Jesus: ‘Truly I say to you, that Satan ever seeks to annul the laws of God; and therefore he with his followers, hypocrites and evil-doers, the former with false doctrine, the latter with lewd living, today have contaminated almost all things, so that scarcely is the truth found. Woe to the hypocrites! for the praises of this world shall turn for them into insults and torments in hell.

See 2 Thessalonians 2:9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how

Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve

the lie,

Matthew 5: 18 "For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest

letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished. 19"Whoever then annuls

one of the least of these commandments, and teaches others to do the same, shall be called

least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever keeps and teaches them, he shall be called

great in the kingdom of heaven.…

GOSPEL OF BARNABAS, CHAPTER 53,, continued ON JESUS A SERVANT AND

PROPHET OF GOD, NOT SON OF GOD:

....And having said this, Jesus smote his face with both his hands, and then smote the

ground with his head. And having raised his head, he said: ‘Cursed be every one who shall

insert into my sayings that I am the son of God.

IN NEW TESTAMENT AND OLD TESTAMENT

A PROPHET YET TO COME?:

Luke 24:19 "What things?" he asked. "About Jesus of Nazareth," they replied. "He was a

prophet, powerful in word and deed before God and all the people.

TO RECOGNIZE THE LAST PROPHET BY SEEING HIS TESTIFICATION ABOUT JESUS

CHRIST ALAIHISSALAM:

See 1 John 4:2 This is how you can recognize the Spirit of God: Every spirit that acknowledges

that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God,

Comment: only Islam testified Jesus Christ (A.S) had come in the flesh!

John 4:19 The woman said to Him, "Sir, I perceive that You are a prophet. 20"Our fathers

worshiped in this mountain, and you people say that in Jerusalem is the place where men ought

to worship."

Hebrews: 3 :1 Therefore, holy brothers and sisters, who share in the heavenly calling, fix your

thoughts on Jesus, whom we acknowledge as our apostle and high priest.

Acts 4:30 Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of

your holy servant Jesus."

Acts 3:13T he God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the God of our fathers, has glorified his

servant Jesus.

Comments: According to the Church, Jesus is only Son of God!, But according to Genesis,

there are many sons of God!

The word Sons of God is an interpolation which came to New Testament too!

See Genesis: 48:9 They are the sons God has given me here," Joseph said to his father. Then

Israel said, "Bring them to me so I may bless them."

Genesis 6:2 the sons of God saw that the daughters of humans were beautiful, and they married

any of them they chose.

Genesis 6:4 The Nephilim were on the earth in those days--and also afterward--when the sons

of God went to the daughters of humans and had children by them. They were the heroes of old,

men of renown.

NABI MUHAMMAD (S.A.W) THE ONLY PERFECT SERVANT OF GOD:

Gospel of Barnabas 54:

After this shall God cause Satan to be raised up, at whose aspect every creature shall be as dead, for fear of the horrid form of his appearance. May it please God,’ said Jesus, ‘that I behold not that monster on that day. The Messenger of God alone shall not be affrighted by such shapes, because he shall fear God only. IN OLD TESTAMENT: Isaiah 11:2 The Spirit of the LORD will rest on him-- the Spirit of wisdom and of understanding, the Spirit of counsel and of might, the Spirit of the knowledge and fear of the LORD-- GOSPEL OF BARNABAS: 72. The signs of the Messenger of God:

Jesus answered: ‘Let not your heart be troubled, neither be you fearful: for I have not created you, but God our creator who has created you will protect you. As for me, I am now come to the world to prepare the way for the Messenger of God, who shall bring salvation to the world. But beware that you be not deceived, for many false prophets shall come, who shall take my words and contaminate my gospel.’ Then said Andrew: ‘Master tell us some sign, that we may

know him.’ Jesus answered: ‘He will not come in your time, but will come some years after you, when my gospel shall be annulled, insomuch that there shall be scarcely thirty faithful. At that time God will have mercy on the world, and so he will send his Messenger, over whose head will rest a white cloud, whereby he shall be known of one elect of God, and shall be by him manifested to the world. He shall come with great power against the ungodly, and shall destroy idolatry upon the earth. And it rejoices me because that through him our God shall be known and glorified, and I shall be known to be true; and he will execute vengeance against those who shall say that I am more than man. ‘Truly I say to you that the moon shall minister sleep to him in his boyhood, and when he shall be grown up he shall take her in his hands. Let the world beware of casting him out because he shall slay the idolaters, for many more were slain by Moses, the servant of God, and Joshua, who spared not the cities which they burnt,and slew the children; for to an old wound one applies fire. ‘He shall come with truth more clear than that of all the prophets, and shall reprove him who use the world amiss. The towers of the city of our father shall greet one another for joy: and so when idolatry shall be seen to fall to the ground and confess me a man like other men, truly I say to you the Messenger of God shall be come. IN THE OLD AND NEW TESTAMENTS: Isaiah 42:13 The LORD will march out like a champion, like a warrior he will stir up his zeal; with a shout he will raise the battle cry and will triumph over his enemies. Deuteronomy 18:15 The LORD your God will raise up for you a prophet like me from among you, from your fellow Israelites. You must listen to him. John 16:13 But when he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come. WILL COME IN THE DARK AGE (MIDDLE AGE), WHEN WHOLE WORLD ENTER IN DARKNESS: John 12:35 Then Jesus told them, "You are going to have the light just a little while longer. Walk while you have the light, before darkness overtakes you. Whoever walks in the dark does not know where they are going. Deuteronomy 33:2 And he said, The LORD came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them. "HE SHALL COME WITH MORE TRUTH THAN ALL OF THE PROPHETS:" John 15:15 no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's

business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. Also see John 16:13

PROPHET MUHAMMAD (S.A.W) THE MESSIAH OF WHOLE NATION: Gospel of Barnabas 96. About the Messiah of God When the prayer was ended, the priest said with a loud voice: ‘Stay, Jesus, for we need to know who you are, for the quieting of our nation.’ Jesus answered: ‘I am Jesus, son of Mary, of the seed of David, a man that is mortal and fears God, and I seek that to God be given honour and glory.’ The priest answered: ‘In the Book of Moses it is written that our God must send us the Messiah, who shall come to announce to us that which God wills, and shall bring to the world the mercy of God. Therefore I pray you tell us the truth, are you the Messiah of God whom we expect?’ Jesus answered: ‘It is true that God has so promised, but indeed I am not he, for he is made before me, and shall come after me.’ The priest answered: ‘By your words and signs at any rate we believe you to be a prophet and an holy one of God, wherefore I pray you in the name of all Judea and Israel that you for love of God should tell us in what wise the Messiah will come.’ Jesus answered: ‘As God lives, in whose presence my soul stands, I am not the Messiah whom all the tribes of the earth expect, even as God promised to our father Abraham, saying: “In your seed will I bless all the tribes of the earth.” But when God shall take me away from the world, Satan will raise again this accursed sedition, by making the impious believe that I am God and son of God, whence my words and my doctrine shall be contaminated, insomuch that scarcely shall there remain thirty faithful ones: whereupon God will have mercy upon the world, and will send his Messenger for whom he has made all things who shall come from the south with power, and shall destroy the idols with the idolaters who shall take away the dominion from Satan which he has over men. He shall bring with him the mercy of God for salvation of them that shall believe in him, and blessed is he who shall believe his words. 97. The name of the Messiah of God ‘Unworthy though I am to untie his hosen, I have received grace and mercy from God to see him.’ Then answered the priest, with the governor and the king, saying: ‘Distress not yourself, O Jesus, holy one of God, because in our time shall not this sedition be any more, seeing that we will write to the sacred Roman senate in such wise that by imperial decree none shall any more call you God or son of God.’ Then Jesus said: ‘With your words I am not consoled, because where you hope for light darkness shall come; but my consolation is in the coming of the Messenger, who shall destroy every false opinion of me, and his faith shall spread and shall take hold of the whole world, for so has God promised to Abraham our father. And that which gives me consolation is that his faith shall have no end, but shall be kept inviolate by God.’ The priest answered: ‘After the coming of the Messenger of God shall other prophets come?’ Jesus answered: ‘There shall not come after him true prophets sent by God, but there shall come a great number of false prophets, whereat I sorrow. For Satan shall raise them up by the

just judgment of God, and they shall hide themselves under the pretext of my gospel.’ Herod answered: ‘How is it a just judgment of God that such impious men should come?’ Jesus answered: ‘It is just that he who will not believe in the truth to his salvation should believe in a lie to his damnation. Wherefore I say to you, that the world has ever despised the true prophets and loved the false, as can be seen in the time of Micaiah and Jeremiah. For every like loves his like.’ Then said the priest: ‘How shall the Messiah be called, and what sign shall reveal his coming?’ Jesus answered: ‘The name of the Messiah is admirable, for God himself gave him the name when he had created his soul. and placed it in a celestial splendour. God said: “Wait Muhammad; for your sake I will to create paradise, the world, and a great multitude of creatures, whereof I make you a present, insomuch that whoever shall bless you shall be blessed, and whoever shall curse you shall be accursed. When I shall send you into the world I shall send you as my Messenger of salvation, and your word shall be true, insomuch that heaven and earth shall fail, but your faith shall never fail.” Muhammad is his blessed name.’ Then the crowd lifted up their voices, saying: ‘O God, send us your Messenger: O Muhammad, come quickly for the salvation of the world!’ 2 Thessalonians 2:9 The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie, Romans 1:25 hey exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator--who is forever praised. Amen. Matthew 7:23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ Matthew 24:12 And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. There is no laws in scriptures which suggest to worship God in the flesh or God in Jesus!. The Law is clear from lawlessness! John 4:24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth." WE KNOW REAL FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST (A.S) BY HOW THEY LIVE NOT BY WHAT THEY SPEAK: 1 John 2:4-6 Whoever says, "I know him," but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in that person.But if anyone obeys his word, love for God is truly made complete in them. This is how we know we are in him:Whoever claims to live in him must live as Jesus did. Disciples did not instruct to worship Jesus, even in the times of disorder! Acts 13:16 Standing up, Paul motioned with his hand and said: "Fellow Israelites and you Gentiles who worship God, listen to me! Acts 14: 14But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of it, they tore their robes and rushed out into the crowd, crying out 15and saying, "Men, why are you doing these things? We are also men of the same nature as you, and preach the gospel to you that you should turn from

these vain things to a living God, WHO MADE THE HEAVEN AND THE EARTH AND THE SEA AND ALL THAT IS IN THEM.… 1 Timothy 1:17 All honor and glory to God forever and ever! He is the eternal King, the unseen one who never dies; he alone is God. Amen. 1 Timothy 6:16 who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. 2 Timothy 2:19 But God’s firm foundation stands, bearing this seal: “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let everyone who names the name of the Lord depart from iniquity.” This is sufficient for anyone who seeks truth and thus surrender to the truth. People say we are taking Gospel in Islamic Perspective , but Gospel of Barnabas is there before advent of prophet Muhammad (s.a.w), and if someone say, it is not reliable as it contradict their New testament books, then our reply is, we already quoted the contradictions in Old Testament and New Testament about sons of God, Lawlessness and other contradictions in Bible for example quoting a few below: 1- How did Simon Peter find out that Jesus was the Christ? (a) By a revelation from heaven (Matthew 16:17) or His brother Andrew told him (John 1:41)? 2-Where did Jesus first meet Simon Peter and Andrew? (a) By the sea of Galilee (Matthew 4:18-22) or (b) On the banks of river Jordan (John 1:42). After that, Jesus decided to go to Galilee (John 1:43) 3- Did John the Baptist recognize Jesus before his baptism? (a) Yes (Matthew 3:13-14) or (b) No (John 1:32,33)??? 4- Did John the Baptist recognize Jesus after his baptism? (a) Yes (John 1:32, 33) (b) No (Matthew 11:2)??? 5-Apart from Jesus did anyone else ascend to heaven? (a) No (John 3:13) (b) Yes. “And Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven” (2 Kings 2:11) There are 100s of contradictions like the quoted in the Bible. So let's avoid double standard in judging the Gospel of Barnabas!

FURTHER VERSES FROM NEW TESTAMENT ABOUT JESUS CHRIST (A.S) THE GREATER MESSIAH (NABI MUHAMMAD ALAIHIWALATHU WA SALAM) AND JOHN THE BAPTIST (YAHYA ALAIHISSALAM) Mark 8:: 27Jesus went out, along with His disciples, to the villages of Caesarea Philippi; and on the way He questioned His disciples, saying to them, "Who do people say that I am?" 28 They told Him, saying, "John the Baptist; and others say Elijah; but others, one of the prophets." 29And He continued by questioning them, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered and said to Him, "You are the Christ."… Alterations in Luke: Luke 7:20 When the men came to Jesus, they said, "John the Baptist sent us to you to ask, 'Are you the one who is to come, or should we expect someone else?'" Where is the Answer to this questions?, this has been removed from the text or ignored to

write down! See Luke 7:21 At that very time Jesus cured many who had diseases, sicknesses and evil spirits, and gave sight to many who were blind.

WHO HAS SEEN GOD? CONFUSION AMONG AUTHORS OF BIBLE: According to Book of John (Really?) Only Jesus has seen God:

John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known. John 6:46 No one has seen the Father except the one who is from God; only he has seen the Father.

Author of 1 John says No one has ever seen God: See 1 John 4:12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us. According to the author of Timothy, No one can see God: 1 Timothy 1:17 All honor and glory to God forever and ever! He is the eternal King, the unseen one who never dies; he alone is God. Amen. 1 Timothy 6:16 who alone is immortal and who lives in unapproachable light, whom no one has seen or can see. To him be honor and might forever. Amen. According to Author of Acts, Stephen can see God: Acts 7:25 But Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, looked up to heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. Isaiah 64:4 Since ancient times no one has heard, no ear has perceived, no eye has seen any God besides you, who acts on behalf of those who wait for him. ACCORDING TO THE AUTHORS OF OLD TESTAMENT IN THE PAST GOD WAS SEEN: So as per the Church claim that they are on a higher path than the ways of previous prophets, then God must be seen more often in the Way of Church! Sinners of the tribes of Israel Saw God: Exodus 24:11 But God did not raise his hand against these leaders of the Israelites; they saw God, and they ate and drank. Jacob (a.s) Saw God: Genesis 32:30 So Jacob called the place Peniel, saying, "It is because I saw God face to face, and yet my life was spared." Multitude of people saw God: 1 Kings 18: 39 When all the people saw it, they fell on their faces; and they said, "The LORD, He is God; the LORD, He is God. Comments: We don't believe Jehova is god, Jehova is an alteration, true God is Allah, Elohi Moses (A.S) and Many elders of Israel saw god, (Alteration) in Exodus, GOD with feet and hands?, the God in Genesis one and this verse (Exodus 24:9-10) is like Hindu god Vishnu! Exodus 24:9 Then Moses went up with Aaron, Nadab and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel, 10and they saw the God of Israel; and under His feet there appeared to be a pavement of sapphire, as clear as the sky itself. Correct here: John 4:24 God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in the Spirit and in truth."

Hagar saw God: Genesis 16:13 She gave this name to the LORD who spoke to her: "You are the God who sees me," for she said, "I have now seen the One who sees me." Aaron and Miriam saw God: Numbers 12:5 Then the LORD came down in a pillar of cloud; he stood at the entrance to the tent and summoned Aaron and Miriam. When the two of them stepped forward, This are the numerous inconsistencies in the Old Testament and New testament books, yet so many people reject the Gospel of Barnabas and Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) as a consequence of double standard and the corruption and ongoing alteration in the Bible. John the Baptist or Jesus Christ? (Peace be upon them), Alteration in Book of John: John 1: 19 This is the testimony of John, when the Jews sent to him priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, "Who are you?" 20And he confessed and did not deny, but confessed, "I am not the Christ." 21They asked him, "What then? Are you Elijah?" And he said, "I am not." "Are you the Prophet?" And he answered, "No." 22 Finally they said, "Who are you? Give us an answer to take back to those who sent us. What do you say about yourself?" 23 John replied in the words of the prophet Isaiah: "I am a voice shouting in the wilderness, Clear the way for the LORD's coming!'" John 1:27 He is the one who comes after me, the straps of whose sandals I am not worthy to untie." John 1:27 is clearly the word of Jesus Christ (A.S) about the Last Prophet. Because, Jesus (A.S) lived in the time of John (A.S) and worked together until the last days of John's life. But it is the Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w) who is to come after John and after Jesus Christ (A.S) Because , see Matthew3:13 Then Jesus came from Galilee to the Jordan to be baptized by John So if the straps of whose sandals John not worthy to untie, yet John went on to baptize Jesus Christ (A.S) in Baptism of John which is of repentance? Think about it rationally!, which is clear proof that John 1:27 is speaking about Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w)

Acts 19:4 Paul said, "John's baptism was a baptism of repentance Jesus Baptized into John's Baptism (Peace be upon them), but Paul thought it is Jesus who is to come after Paul, while Jesus was with John the Baptist (Peace be upon them), not after him! This is clearly fulfilling Gospel of Barnabas and Islamic wisdom of the Coming Prophet whose Sandal is revered is Prophet Muhammad (may Allah's peace and blessings be upon him) The Prophets does not speak by themselves, so the saying of John the Baptists that I am unworthy of touching his Sandals, is coming from God and a God's commandment on the Prophets, yet, such a great person to be Baptized by John the Baptist , cannot be Jesus Christ (A.S), also Jesus Christ (A.S) himself refuting such false claims about him, by washing the feet of his disciples!

THE ALTERATION IN OLD TESTAMENT ABOUT THE COMING OF GREATEST MESSIAH FROM ISHMAEL'S PROGENY: As the Jewish priests altered the scripture , they changed the name of Ishmael to Isaac (Peace be upon him), truly on Ishmael (A.S) As a consequences of this corruptions in the scriptures (see Jeremiah 8:8) by the Divine Wisdom and Decree, God Almighty failed Jews in accepting Jesus Christ (A.S) Because priests changed the Scriptures that actually say the whole world will be blessed by the seed of Abraham through Ishmael's progeny! So the Jews thought Greatest Messiah would come from the descendants of Jacob and David (Peace be upon them) But this greatest one who has to come as the seal of all Prophets was not Jesus Christ (A.S), someone from the descendants of David (alaihissalam), so God Almighty brought forth Jesus Christ (A.S) without a father, thus making him not a descendant of Jacob or previous prophets! And no one came in the children of Israel, neither a new Christ nor Last Prophet Muhammad (s.a.w), so whole world now awaiting the return of Messiah (A.S), return of Messiah (A.S) also means the Last Prophet messenger of God, the greatest Messiah Muhammad (alaihiswalathu wa salam) had come after the time of Jesus Christ's (A.S) first advent into this world! This is how Allah Almighty Protect and Defend the Truth from all the falsehood and all the false scribes which is written against all truth! See Quran 8:30 Remember how the Unbelievers plotted against thee, to keep thee in bonds, or slay thee, or get thee out (of thy home). They plot and plan, and Allah too plans; but the best of planners is Allah. In Mark 77-9 and Matthew 15:9 Jesus Christ (A.S) himself warns of the corruption of priests and he cursed them in as written in the book of John John 8:21 Once more Jesus said to them, "I am going away, and you will look for me, and you will die in your sin. Where I go, you cannot come." see Deuteronomy 34:10 Since then, no prophet has risen in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face, Article by: Jouhar Ali Naqshbandi Al-Hassani*
