is attested from the Ḥadeeth.<br />
The knowledge that he ﷺ has been mentioned in the books of the People of the<br />
Book is an essential part of the (our) religion (and which is well known among the<br />
Muslims and no claim of ignorance will be accepted in this case). And in the Qur’aan,<br />
many Aayaat have been revealed as proof of that, and we (Ibn Katheer) have explained<br />
them in (our Tafseer), and all praise is for <strong>Al</strong>laah alone. Some of these Aayaat are as<br />
follows:<br />
﴿الَّذِينَُُآتَي نَاه مُال كِتَابَ ُمِنُقَب لِهُِه مُبِهُِي ؤ مِن ونَُ*ُوَإِذَاُي ت لَىُعَلَي هِم ُقَال واُآمَنَّاُبِهُِإِنَّه ُاحل َقُُُّ مِنُرَّبِّنَاُإِنَّاُ<br />
ُ<br />
ك نَّاُمِنُقَب لِهُِم س لِمِنيَ﴾<br />
{Those to whom We gave the Scripture [i.e. the Taurah and the Injeel] before it, -<br />
they believe in it (the Qur’aan). And when it is recited to them, they say: “We believe<br />
in it. Verily, it is the truth from our Lord. Indeed even before it we have been from<br />
those who submit themselves to <strong>Al</strong>laah in Islaam as Muslims (like `Abdullaah Ibn<br />
Salaam and Salman al-Faarisee).} [Surah al-Qasas (28): 52-53]<br />
And <strong>Al</strong>laah تعاىل says:<br />
﴿الَّذِينَُآتَي نَاه م ُال كِتَابَ ُيَع رِف ونَه ُكَمَاُيَع رِف ونَُأَب نَاءَه م ُُۖوَإِنَُّفَرِيق اُمِّن ه م ُلَيَك ت م ونَُاحل َقَُّوَه م ُيَع لَم ونَ﴾<br />
{Those to whom We gave the Scripture (Jews and Christians) recognize him<br />
(Muḥammad) as they recognize their sons. But verily, a party of them conceal the<br />
truth while they know it - [i.e. the qualities of Muḥammad which are written in the<br />
Taurah and the Injeel].} [Surah al-Baqarah (2): 146]<br />
And <strong>Al</strong>laah تعاىل says:<br />
﴿ُق ل ُآمِن واُبِهُِأَو ُّلَ ُت ؤ مِن واُُۖإِنَُّالَّذِينَُأ وت واُال عِل مَُمِنُقَب لِهُِإِذَاُي ت لَىُعَلَي هِم َُيَِرُّونَُلِْل َذ قَانُِس جَّد اُ*ُ<br />

{Say (O Muḥammad to them): “Believe in it (the Qur’aan) or do not believe (in it).<br />
Verily! Those who were given knowledge before it (the Jews and the Christians like<br />
`Abdullaah Ibn Salaam and Salmaan al-Faarisee), when it is recited to them, fall down<br />
