The name "Hira" in Isaiah 29:12 and corrector's attempt to cover it up!
Idris:
As-Salam aleikum wa rahmatullahi wa baraketuh,
I have not participated in this forum for long time.
I just want to tell you about a very interesting details which would be - as I think - a factual confirmation of the view that Prophet Mohammed (SAAW) is mentioned in Isaiah 29:12. I find this new discovery as a welcome support for Muslim interpretation.
Muslims for a long time have seen Isaiah 29:12 as an allusion to Prophet Mohammed's (SAAW) first revelation which was given by Gabriel (AS) in the cave Hira. Indeed, a very suggestive description is given by Isaiah, pointing to the first experience which according to the Muslim tradition occurred in this place.
There is a certain word which appear in the text of Isaiah 29:12 to which Muslims did not paid attention, since it was "obscured" under the translation. It seems that this word was originally understood as a proper name for a geographic location.
Moreover, I found a further confirmation from two patristic authorities that the one who was giving this book to the "unlettered one" is the Holy Spirit which in Islam is non other than Gabriel himself (AS). As biblical scholars has also observed, the motif of "creating human from clay" is a part of the chapter 29 which thematically fits the story of al-'Alaq.
I will discuss here insha'Allah this finding, but in return I would need some help from you.

As-Salam aleikum wa rahmatullah,
Thank you dear brother Osama, I would need a practical help, but I’ll explain after I finish entirely my post about Isaiah 29:12.
For now, can I upload an image directly from my PC ? I don't see such a function.

Wa Alaikum As'salam Wa Rahmatu Allah Wa Barakatuh dear brother Idris,
Jazaka Allah Khayr akhi. Go ahead and post your article and link the images to an outside site. I then will update your post and re-link your images to my website after I upload your images. I've done this with all of your previous posts and with a few brothers' posts here as well.
I have setup the blog to restrict certain functions on all except my account to prevent problems. This helps me keep the maintenance of this blog simple and always healthy for all :), insha'Allah. Hope this will work for you, insha'Allah.
Take care,
Osama Abdallah
