Today Al Fadi and Bro. Mel discuss who was Salman Al Farsi from a Jewish point of view. The Muslims say that he was a Persian who was Muhammad's right hand man who translated part of the Quran into Persian. Mel thinks that he was Shalmon; the brother of Nehemiah bin Husiel whom the Jews thought he was Messiah bin David. Then they discuss the word Uzair in chapter 9 of the Quran. Who was that person or is the word missing a dot which changes the meaning in Arabic? They find an early Quranic manuscript with the word Uzair/عزير with an extra dot on the last letter of the word, عزيز which could give it a meaning of a messianic figure. Listen to gain more insight to the discussion.

In this episode Al Fadi and Bro. Mel discuss more titles that the Quran refers to that are Jewish; example 1. Jaloot /Galoot (Sura 2:251), which is a Jewish Exilarch; a Jewish leader of the diaspora. 2. Illiyun/ a reference to the Jerusalem Talmud. 3. Sijin (Sura 83:7) a reference to the Babylonian Talmud. In the seventh century Mehmed was a Messianic title, and in the seventh century the Jews believed in two Messiahs ; Messiah bin Joseph( a suffering servant who dies for the Jews . the other is Messiah bin David who is a triumphant king who will destroy Israel's enemies. Also In the seventh century the Jews had a chain of Messiahs/ Mehmeds . So could've the title Mehmed started as a historical name and with lots of distortions ended up being the Muhammad of Hijaz? Listen to hear the details.

In this new series Al Fadi and Bro. Mel are going to discuss who is this 7th century person called Muhammad according the Standard Islamic Narrative. Is he one person or a combination of different people. They say that this person was a companion of a Jewish leader in Iraq. They also mention a name referred to Uzair in the Quran; is it the word Ezra or is there a mistake of one missing dot that could be the word Azeez/ a word similar to Mehmed which is a Messiah title? They conclude that if the Quran is written by an Arabian prophet way down in Mecca , why is he referring to Jewish leaders that are in Syria and Iraq? Other examples are Ginn, kafir, and Nasi. Listen to learn to more details.
