Mentions

Bhavishya Purana

The Bhavishya Purana is one of the eighteen major Hindu Puranas. It is traditionally ascribed to the Rishi Vyasa, the compiler of the Vedas, although the actual authorship remains unknown and the document is likely the work of many hands. Like the other mahapuranas, it is written in Sanskrit. It contains passages that some interpret as references to Muhammad. In the Pratisarga Parva (Part III, Chapter 3, Verses 5-27), a figure named "Mahamada" is described as a leader in a foreign land who teaches a different dharma. His followers are also mentioned as "musalman". Some scholars suggest this refers to Muhammad. However, critics argue that these verses may be later interpolations and not part of the original text.

Kalki Avatar

Certain Islamic scholars and followers claim that Muhammad is mentioned as the Kalki Avatar, the prophesied final avatar of Vishnu described in the Kalki Purana. They argue that descriptions of a spiritual leader from a desert region, riding a white horse, and bringing about world transformation align with Muhammad's life. However, mainstream Hindu interpretations do not support this claim.
