A secret Bible in which Jesus is believed to predict the coming of the Prophet Muhammad to Earth has sparked serious interest from the Vatican.
Pope Benedict XVI is claimed to want to see the 1,500-year-old book, which many say is the Gospel of Barnabas, that has been hidden by the Turkish state for the last 12 years.
Ancient: The leather-bound text, written on animal hide, was discovered by Turkish police during an anti-smuggling operation in 2000
The £14million handwritten gold lettered tome, penned in Jesus’ native Aramaic language, is said to contain his early teachings and a prediction of the Prophet’s coming.
The leather-bound text, written on animal hide, was discovered by Turkish police during an anti-smuggling operation in 2000.
It was closely guarded until 2010, when it was finally handed over to the Ankara Ethnography Museum, and will soon be put back on public display following a minor restoration.
A photocopy of a single page from the handwritten ancient manuscript is thought to be worth £1.5million.

Masya-Allah, thank you…
Amazing fact for non-believers. May Allah guide them to accept the TRUTH through their interest in this magnificent prophecy.
As soon as I saw the gold lettering it was obvious that this is a fake. It does Islam no favours when those charlatans out to make a lot of money quickly or Muslims desperate to manufacture ‘evidence’ to support their religion’s claims, come up with embarrassingly obvious fakes like this. No doubt scientific analysis will confirm this and it is to be hoped that respected Muslim scholars will protect the religion’s dignity by resisting the temptation to give credence to this nonsense.
How does gold lettering make it fake?
that has been hidden by the Turkish state for the last 12 years.
its a good news but what is the reason of hide.if disclose 12 years back there was possibility to embrace islam lot of non belivers.

“Truth shall prevail over falsehood” is a verse in The Holy Quran. Gospel of St. Barnabas was missing because it has the prediction of Prophet Muhammed (SAW) coming to Mankind. One of the Hadith says that one of the signs of coming of Imam Mehdi at later days is that there will be nothing hidden (no information ) so finding the Gospel of Barnabas is no surprise as we are passing thro’ the later days and as far as Ahmadiyat is concerned that promised personality Imam Mehdi has come. Alhamdulillah
Fake or not fake whatever is there something about connection to Muhammad saw if yes it will be unfair to leave un answered Pope
The Christians and the Jews are well aware of the fact there is a recital about the Prophet Muhammed(S.W.A) in their respective religious scriptures but as we all know that one can’t make drink to an willing horse, these Christians and Jews intentionally deny and ignore the same and thereby committing unpardonable sins. May Almighty Allah guide to the true path.
