Bible Prophets died from poisoning as a punishment from GOD. Was Prophet Muhammad punished by also dying from poisoning?What about the Prophets that Israel murdered? Were they also false prophets?According to David Wood's standards, many Prophets from the Bible have to be false, because they were
"outwitted" by the Jews and were murdered by them. Let us look at some of the Bible's verses regarding the murdering of many Prophets by the Jews:

Which prophets were said to be killed by the Jews?
peace be upon you Lie hunter,
i believe you are referring to the following verse of the quran:
(002:061) ...They were covered with humiliation and misery; they drew on themselves the wrath of Allah. This because they went on rejecting the Signs of Allah and slaying His Messengers without just cause. This because they rebelled and went on transgressing. in his famous commentary on the quran called tafheem-ul-quran
http://www.tafheem.net/main.html maulana abul ala maududi provides the following references:
The Israelites recorded their crimes in detail in their own history. Here are just a few examples from the Bible:
(1) After the death of Solomon the state of the Israelites was split into two: the State of Judah with its capital in Jerusalem, and the State of Israel with its capital in Samaria. This was followed by a series of wars between the two States so that the State of Judah sought the assistance of the Aramacan State of Damascus against its own kinsmen. At this, Hamani the seer went under God's direction to Asa the king and rebuked him. Instead of rectifying his behaviour,
Asa was so angry that he put the seer in the stocks. (See
2 Chronicles 16:7-10.)
(2) When Elijah denounced the Jews for their worship of Baal and invited them to retun to monotheism, Ahab, the king of Israel pursued him for the sake of his pagan wife so that he had to take refuge in the mountains of the Sinai peninsula. On this occasion, according to the Bible, he said: '. . . the people of Israel have forsaken thy covenant, thrown down thy altars,
and slain thy prophets with the sword., and 1, even 1 only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away' (
1 Kings 19:14).
(3) The same king Ahab
imprisoned another Prophet, Micah, for no other reason than that of speaking the truth. King Ahab ordered that he should be given only bread and water. (See
1 Kings 22:26-7)
(4) When idol-worship and moral corruption became prevalent in Judah and the Prophet Zechariah raised his voice against them,
he was stoned to death in the very court of the house of the Lord. (See
2 Chronicles 24:21.)
(5) When the Israelite State of Samaria was wiped out by the State of Jerusalem, the Prophet Jeremiah deplored the condition of the Israelites. He warned them that it was time they set about mending their ways otherwise they would face an even more calamitous end than that of Samaria. The response to this sincere preaching was abuse and curses: he was beaten, imprisoned, put in the stocks and lowered by ropes into a cistern,
where he was left to die of hunger and thirst. He was also accused of various crimes, including treason and conspiracy. (See
Jeremiah 15: 10; 18: 20-3; 20: 1-18; 36-40)
(6) It is reported of another Prophet, Amos, that when he denounced the widespread errors and corruption in the State of Samaria and warned of the evil consequences that follow such misdeeds, he was condemned to exile and
told to pursue his prophetic task somewhere beyond its frontiers. (See
Amos 7:10-13.)
(7) When John the Baptist protested against the acts of moral corruption that were brazenly practised in his court, Herod, the ruler of Judah, first put John into prison,
then had him beheaded at the request of a dancing girl, and had his head set on a platter and presented to the girl. (See
Mark 6:17-29)
(8 ) The same hostility to Prophets is evident from the life of Jesus. The priests and political leaders of Israel ultimately became inflamed against Jesus, who criticized them for their impiety and hypocrisy and invited them to true faith and riahteousness. It was this which prompted them to prepare a false case against him and persuade the Romans to sign a death sentence. Later, when the Roman governor, Pilate, asked them which of the two prisoners - Jesus or Barabbas, a notorious brigand - should be released on the occasion of the feast, they asked for the release of Barabbas and for the crucifixion of Jesus (
Matthew 27: 20-6). This is a shameful chapter in the record of the Jewish nation, to which the Qur'an refers here in passing. It is evident that when a nation chooses its most notoriously criminal and wicked people for positions of leadership, and its righteous and holy men for gaol and the scaffold, God has no alternative but to lay His curse and damnation on that nation.
An addition from me, Osama Abdallah: Visit the following link to see how the Bible in both the Old and New Testaments CLEARLY AND THOROUGHLY declares that Jesus was never crucified:
