Christians often like to claim that Muhammad is a false prophet; they often like to say that the only time Muhammad is mentioned in the Bible is as a false prophet. They then like to quote the passages which talks about the false prophets. we shall examine the most common verses Christians bring, and from there we will see if the prophet Muhammad actually fits the description given by the Bible. Here are the first passages Christians often bring up: Jesus answered them, ?Watch out that no one misleads you. For many will come in my name, saying, I am the Christ, and they will mislead many ... Then if anyone says to you, Look, here is the Christ! or There he is! do not believe him. For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders to deceive, if possible, even the elect. Remember, I have told you ahead of time. Matthew 24:4-5, 23-25 The prophet Muhammad certainly does not fit the description given by Jesus. Another verse which Christians bring up is: Now the Spirit explicitly says that in the later times some will desert the faith and occupy themselves with deceiving spirits and demonic teachings, influenced by the hypocrisy of liars whose consciences are seared. They will prohibit marriage and require abstinence from foods that God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the truth. 1 Timothy 4:1-3 The prophet Muhammad certainly does not fit the criteria of these verses. If anything it is Paul who fits the criteria! Note the passages say that the false prophet will prohibit marriage; the one who prohibited marriage was Paul: 1 Corinthians 7:1 Now for the matters you wrote about: It is good for a man not to marry So as we see, it is Paul who fits the description. So anyway, when we read the passage in context we see that the verses cannot refer to Muhammad, Muhammad did not prohibit marriage, and Muhammad did not really prohibit foods. All fish were made halal, so were camels. He forbade the eating of donkey. Now a Christian may argue that they believe Muhammads teaching is demonic, however that doesnt work neither, the reason that doesnt work is because according to these verses, the demonic teaching is prohibiting marriage and certain foods! So again the prophet Muhammad does not fit this description neither
