*And when Jesus said; O Children of Israel! I am the apostle of God (sent) to you, confirming the Law (which came) before me, and giving glad tidings of an apostle to come after me, whose name shall be Ahmad. [Holy Quran 61:6] Please take notice of the name mentioned, Ahmad. This is one of the most common of several names given to the prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, by his own people. Now let us turn to the Old Testament (Torah of the Jews) and notice the book called Songs of Solomon, chapter 5, verse 16: His mouth is very sweet; he is totally desirable. 33 This is my beloved! This is my companion, O maidens of Jerusalem! Check the footnote (33) to discover what the word was BEFORE it was translated as totally desirable and in some versions of the translations we find, altogether lovely. (makhmaddim, “desirable”) is the plural form of the noun (makhmad, “desire, desirable thing, precious object”; (see below note #33) It is asserted that this word Makhmaddim is in reality the word Akhmad or AHmad. The reason for the emphasis on the kh sound is to prounouce the very hard H sound of the two types of h in the Semetic languages.
