I have been trying to do research some verses from Hindu scriptures
and trace them back to their original sources but I have not been able to
find its original sources in order to verify them. If anyone out there
could e mail me if they know anything about these verses or could
translate them from their original language, or if they have an English
translation of this that they could quote from I would appreciate it. And
if it was possible to tell the context of the quotes and to find out the
time these books were written and by whom it would be even better.
Thanks!
Bhavishya Purana Parv 3, Khand 3, Adhya 3, Shalok 5-8:
"Just then, an illiterate man with the epithet 'Teacher,' Muhammad by
name, came along with his companions. Raja (Bhoja in a vision) to that
Great Deva, the denizen of Arabia, purifying with the Ganges water and
with the five things of cow offered sandal wood, and pay worship to him.
O denizen of Arabia and Lord of the Holies, to thee is my adoration. O
thou who has found many ways and means to destroy the devils of the world.
O pure one from among the illiterates, O sinless One, the Spirit of Truth
and absolute master, to thee is my adoration. Accept me at thy feet."
Atharva Veda, Kanda 20, Sukta 127, Mantra 1-2:
"O people, 'the man of praise' will be raised among the people. We take
the emigrant in our shelter from sixty thousand and ninety enemies whose
conveyances are camels and she-camels, whose loftiness of position touches
the heaven and lowers it."
