Finding Muhammad (peace be upon him) in the Bible by Dr. Ali Ataie

Zaytuna College faculty member, Dr. Ali Ataie lectures on "Finding Muhammad (peace be upon him) in the Bible: An Inquiry Into Surah 7: 157-258". Given the polyvalent nature of religious texts and by analyzing early Christian Patristic as well as traditional Sunnite exegetical methods, this lecture will attempt to identify prophecies and typologies of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him, in the Hebrew Bible (Tanakh) in light of the Qur'anic statement that the Prophet is "mentioned in the Torah and the Gospel" (Qur. 7:157).
