מַחֲמַדּ Muhammad in the bible MUHAMMAD حبيب الله – The Beloved of God – His Name & Matchless Characteristics:

"The whole word is not worth the day on which the Song of Songs was given to Israel; for all the writings are Holy, but the Song of Songs is the Holiest of the Holy." [Rabbi Akiva (died CE 135), Tractate of Yaddayim (3:5), Mishna] The Bible’s Song of Songs (10) My beloved is dazzling yet ruddy. He stands out among 10,000 men. [NASB] (16) His speech is most sweet, and he is Altogether Desirable - מַחֲמַדִּים. This is my beloved and this is my friend O daughters of Jerusalem. [RSV] (14) His hands are as rings of gold set with beryl: His body is as ivory work overlaid with sapphires. [ASV] (13) His cheeks are as a bed of spices, as banks of sweet herbs: his lips are as lilies, dropping liquid myrrh. [ERV] (15) His legs are pillars of alabaster set on pedestals of pure gold; His appearance is like Lebanon Choice as the cedars. [NASB] (11) His head is as the finest gold: his locks as branches of palm trees, black as a raven. [Douay-Rheims Bible] … the most chief among ten thousand. [American KJV] (12) … His eyes are like doves beside the water-brooks, Washed with milk, and fitly set. Song of Songs Chapter 5: Verse (10-16)

 The Hebrew Bible Shir Hashirim - Song of Songs Chapter 5, Verse 16 “Hikko mamtakeem, v'hulo Mahammadim, ze Dodee v'ze ra‘ee, bano Yarushalaym" Hebrew TransliterationHebrew Text * Mahammadim - The “m” in Hebrew linguistically indicates plural of respect and royalty. Its addition to a word expresses Nobility and Grandeur. Such as: “Alahim”- God. So Mahammadim means: [ Mahammad the Great or Noble ] * Dodee – translated as ‘beloved’, but in Hebrew it actually means Paternal Uncle- (father’s brother); translated as such at least five times in Bible in other places. Therefore ‘Dodee’ means: [He is of Israel’s (Jacob’s) paternal uncle ]

The BiBle’s Song of SoNgS (5:16)  The Hebrew Bible Corrected translation of verse 16: Corrected translation of verse 16: “His mouth is Most sweet: And he is מַחֲמַדִּ – Mahammad! (the Great & Noble) He is of our paternal uncle (Ishmael), And this is My Beloved, Oh daughters of Jerusalem." im = greatness & nobility

Salama bin Salam bin Waqsh – Said: “We had a Jewish neighbor from the family of Banu Abdul Ash-hal; and he came out of his house one day to us. At that time I was the youngest of my household. I was lying in the courtyard of my family’s house. The Jew talked about the Resurrection, the Reckoning, the Scales, Paradise and Hellfire. This he told to Idolaters who did not believe in any life after death. They replied, ‘Come on now! You really think people can be sent after their death to some place where there is a paradise and a fire where they will be punished for their deeds.’ ‘Yes indeed!’ he replied. ‘And by Him by whom oaths are sworn, Anyone going into that fire would prefer being placed in the hottest oven in the house and having it covered over him, and he being let out of it only the next day’ In disputes the Jews would threaten the Arabs with a Prophet who would soon come to Medina to destroy themIn disputes the Jews would threaten the Arabs with a Prophet who would soon come to Medina to destroy them A Jewish neighbor’s Forewarning of that Prophet’s Arrival in MedinaA Jewish neighbor’s Forewarning of that Prophet’s Arrival in Medina Abdullah ben Salâm (Chief Rabi of the Jews)Abdullah ben Salâm (Chief Rabi of the Jews) Then they said, ‘Good Gracious! But what proof is there? He (the Jewish man) then said, ‘A Prophet is being sent from the hereabouts in these lands (and he gestured to the south - over towards Mecca and Yemen). ‘When will we see him’ they inquired. He looked over at me, being the youngest one there, and said: ‘If this lad lives a normal lifespan – he will live lit this time’. Salama said, “And a Day and a Night had scarcely passed thereafter until God sent His Messenger who lived among us, and so we believed in him, but he, (the Jew) disbelieved in him out of evil and envy.’
