Evidence about Muhammed's coming in even Hindu books.

God (Allah) did not leave any people unaware of the coming of the last Prophet Muhammed (s). Just like the Torah and Gospel, the Hindu books also prophecises about the coming of Prophet Muhammed (s). A few of these are in the Purans. The one in the Bhavishva Puran is the clearest of all. The fifth word from left to right is the name of Prophet Muhammed (s). It gives even the name of the country of the Prophet, "Marusthalnivasinan" denizens of the desert of Arabia. For this reason the Arya Samaj has tried to cast doubt of the authenticity of this Purna. Their argument is that it contains a reference to the Prophet. According to Sanatanist Pundits and the vast bulk of Hindus, it is considered very authentic. The prophecy runs as follows:

Translation from the Original Sanskrit Text:
5. " Just an un-lettered (Prophet Muhammed was called by Allah "nabi al ommie" unlettered Prophet) man with the epithet Teacher (Muhammad by name), came along with his companions.
6. Raja (Bhoja in a vision) to that Great Deva, that denizen of Arabia, purifying with the Ganges water and with the five things of cow offered sandal wood and pay worship to him.
7. O denizen of Arabia and Lord of the Holies to thee is my adoration, O, thou, who hast found many ways and means to destroy all the devils of the world.
8. O pure one from the unlettereds. O, sinless one, the spirit of the truth and absolute master, to thee is my adoration. Accept me at thy feet" (Bhavishya Purna Parv 3, Khand 3, Adhya 3, Shalok 5-8)

Translation from the Original Sanskrit Text:
"O people, listen this emphatically! The man of praise (Muhammed) will be raised among the people. We take the emigrants in our shelter from sixty thousand and ninety enemies whose conveyances are twenty camels and she camels, wose loftiness of position touches the heavens and lowers it.
He gave to Manah Rishi hunderd of gold coins ten circles, three hundered Arab horses and ten thousand cows" (Atharva Veds, Kanda 20, Sukia 127, Mantra 1-3)

But I must say, that like your ancestors who denied the prophets of Allah and their books, you will also deny this. Just like the Christians hide the Bible of Barnabas (which contains a lot of references of Muhammed), you will too hide these refernces of Muhammed (s) from your books. Alas.

O, but I am not sure if our dhimmi can read Sanskrit Text also??
