Below are a few prophecies mentioned in the Bible (mostly Major events) about the coming of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH)

1. DEUTERONOMY 18:18 : Then the LORD said to me, “They have spoken well. 18I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers. I will put My words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him. 19And I will hold accountable anyone who does not listen to My words that that prophet speaks in My name.…

Lets analyse the prophecy criteria's

a) Like you - lets compare Jesus Muhammad & Moses

- Parents : Moses - Both, Muhammad - both, Jesus - Only Mother Mary
- Children : Moses - Yes, Muhammad - yes, Jesus - Not married (No children)
- Birth : Moses - Natural, Muhammad - Natural, Jesus - Miraculaous (without Father)
- Acceptance by a nation : Moses - Yes, Muhammad - Yes, Jesus - No (John 1:11) His own received him not.
- Rulers passing judgement : Moses - Yes,Muhammad - Yes, Jesus - No (John 18:36) My kingdon is not of this world
- New Laws : Moses - Yes, Muhammad - Yes, Jesus - No ( Matthew 5 - 17/18 & ) I came to follow the law dot by dot
- Migration/Exodus ; Moses - Yes, Muhammad - Yes, Jesus - no (never left or migrated)
- Victory against enemy : Moses - Yes, Muhammad - Yes, Jesus - No (infact some say he was killed/crucified)
- Death - Moses - Natural, Muhammad - Natural, Jesus - Not natural (elevated to the heavens & we Muslims believe he didn't die in the first place)
- Divinity - Moses - Prophet, Muhammad - Prophet, Jesus - Some say he is GOD (nothing like Moses)
- Prophet hood age - Moses - 40, Muhammad - 40, Jesus - 30
- Claims are made that Jesus was resurrected after death - nothing like this ever happened to Moses

b) Among their brethren - Who are the brethren of Moses / Jews. Firstly the prophet cannot be a jew because it is clearly mentioned in Deuteronomy 34:10 - 10 :- Since that time,no prophet has arisen in Israel like Moses, whom the LORD knew face to face.
it says among their brothers (Other aside from Jews) and we know that Abraham had 2 children
Issac - father of the Jews & Ismail - father of the Arabs, so the brothers of the Jews are the Arabs.
these are the only 2 nations in the scriptures.

c) I will put my words in his mouth - God says he will speak through him
If we are to look at the scriptures the Quran is a verbatim of what the almighty reveled to the prophet where as the bible is compiled by various authors (words of men such Luke, John, Matthew etc).

d) He will tell them all that i command - Not to withhold any thing. we read in the Quran certain actions which criticize some actions of the prophet. Everything that was given to him was delivered to us all.

2. ISAIAH - 29:11-18 - The (sealed) book will be given to an unlettered prophet. If you read the history and chain of events to the life of the Prophet Muhammad this prophecy is fulfilled by non other than him. Jesus was not given any such instruction as far as we all know.

3. HABBAKUK 3:3 - 3 God came from Teman, and the Holy One from Mount Paran. Selah His glory covered the heavens, and His praise filled the earth.…
God came from Teman - North of Madina (Oasis in Arabia) / Guidance came from Madina - Spread of Islam
Holy one from Mount Paran - we know Abraham left Hajar & Ismail in Paran (Arabia/ Makkah/ Bakkah).
Prophet Migrated from Makkah (Paran) to Madina (Teman) and started to spread the message of Islam.

4. There are no contradictions in the Quran as compared to The Bible - Refer to prophecy Deuteronomy 18:21-22.
Quran has scientific miracles being proven today that were mentioned 1450 years ago and none has been proved to be wrong.

5. VARIOUS MAJOR EVENTS THAT REFER TO THE PROPHET MUHAMMAD:-
A) ISAIAH 21:7 - Vision of the promised one :Jesus rode donkeys, Who rode camels ? Any other than prophet Muhammad ?
B) ISAIAH 21:1-9 - Fall of Babylon / Modern day Iraq - Army came to destroy false gods of Babylon & will erase all the images therein - This is the army of Umar (prophets companion) who went to Iraq and destroyed idolatry.
C) ISAIAH 21:14-15 - Prophets Muhammad's Migration - From Makkah to Madina
D) ISAIAH 21:16-17 - Prophecy of the first battle of the Prophet - Glory of kedar shall fall. who is Kedar ? answer given in Genesis 25:13 - Sons of Ismail.
E) ISAIAH 11:1-2 - the root of Jesse - Who is Jesse ? - It's Ismail & we know that Muhammad is in the lineage of Ismail (Arab brothers of the Jews remember Deut. 18-18)

6. JOHN 16:7-14 - Jesus says he must send the Comforter/spirit of truth - who was that ?

7. SONGS OF SOLOMON - 5:16 - Here he is mentioned by Name Muhammadim - im is added as a sign of respect e.g elohim

"Hikko Mamittakim we kullo Muhammadim Zehdoodeh wa Zehraee Bayna Jerusalem."

"His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters
of Jerusalem."
