Messengers prophets and_buddhas
- 1. Messengers, Prophets and Buddhas? BUDDHISM: I am not the first Buddha who came upon this Earth, nor shall I be the last. The truth is our hope and comfort. All the Buddhas are one in essence, Some form their Dharma arbitrarily and fabricate it artificially; they advance complex speculations and imagine that good results are attainable only by the acceptance of their theories; yet the truth is but one; there are not different truths in the world. All the Buddhas teach the same truth. They point out the path to those who go astray. * False Prophets / Creating Sects? ISLAM: For We assuredly sent amongst every People a messenger, "Serve Allah, and eschew Evil": of the People were some whom Allah guided, and some on whom error became inevitably (established). So travel through the earth, and see what was the end of those who denied (the Truth). QURAN 16:36 To every people (was sent) A Messenger: when their Messenger Comes (before them), the matter Will be judged between them With justice, and they Will not be wronged. Al Quran 10:47 An end (ajal) is fixed for every people (ummah). When their appointed end-time is come there shall be neither a moment’s delay nor haste. Qur’an 7:34, 10:49 For every message is a limit of time, and soon shall ye know it." Qur’an 6:67 For every Ajal (end) there is a Book. He abrogates or confirms whatsoever He wills, for with Him is the Mother Book. Qur’an 13:38-39 (this means every messenger’s teachings are preserved) We did aforetime send Messengers before you: of them There are some whose story We have related to you, And some whose story We have not related To you. Al Quran 40:78 1,24,000 Prophets sent by Allah According to a Sahih Hadith in Mishkatul Masaabih Vol. 3 hadith No. 5737 and Ahmad Ibn Hambal Vol. 5 page 265-266: There were 1,24,000 prophets sent by Allah (swt). Muhammad is not The father of any Of your men, but (he is) The Messenger of Allah, And the Seal of the Prophets: And Allah has full knowledge Of all things Al Quran 33:40 HINDUISM: Bhagavad Geeta Chapter 4 verse 7-8: Whenever there is a decay of righteousness, O Bharata, And rise of unrighteousness, then I manifest Myself. For the protection of the good, for the destruction of the wicked and for the establishment of righteousness, I am born in every age*. Bhagavad Geeta 4:7-8 Whenever there is deterioration in righteousness and waxing of sinfulness, the glorious lord incarnates himself. Bhagawata Purana 9:24:56 from the Vajurveda 32:3 it is understood to believe in one God and is uncreated etc. Therefore here it must be understood that Muslim’s understanding as to manifest oneself is by sending a Messenger

Chronicles 20:20b For there shall arise false 'Christs', and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that if (it were) possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
