The answer

Researchers, including Sheikh Abd al-Majeed al-Zindani in his book "Glad Tidings of Muhammad (peace be upon him) in the Previous Heavenly Books," have discovered that the Gospels and previous scriptures (such as the Torah, the Gospel of Barnabas, and the Books of Isaiah and Habakkuk) mentioned the name of Muhammad (peace be upon him) and gave glad tidings of his coming, such as "This will remain until Muhammad, the Messenger of Allah, comes," and "I have made your name Muhammad, O Muhammad," and "The sky was illuminated by Muhammad's splendor, and the earth was filled with his praise," and "Glory to God in the highest, and on earth, Islam, and to people, Ahmad." The Gospel of John also mentions "the Comforter, the Paraclete," which is the Greek word "periklýtos" meaning Muhammad or Ahmad.
