The Comforter (Paracletos)
Front
How do Muslims interpret the 'Comforter' in John 14 and 16?
Back
Muslims often claim the 'Comforter' (Paracletos) promised by Jesus is a prophecy of Muhammad. They argue the Greek word was originally 'Periklutos' (illustrious), which is a meaning of the name Muhammad.
Explanation
Christian response: No manuscripts support 'Periklutos,' and Jesus says the Comforter will be 'in you' and 'abide forever,' referring to the Holy Spirit.
Source or basis: James White; Quran 61:6
