And Mauri the song of songs in Hebrew is called Shir Hashirim. Shir is Song, of Hashirim can either be a name or the meaning of the words, songs. If its a name its Hashir since im is a plural of respect. Who is Hashir? Prophet Mohammed p.b.u.h said: "I am Hashir, Ahmad, the prophet of Mercy and the prophet of repentance".

Here's a thread all about "song of songs" and other mentions of Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) in the Bible: http://www.islamicity.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6771& ;PN=1

Friday is the day which involves a prayer made all together. This is an important social affair. But verses about friday doesn't declare it as a resting day. As stated in the surah with the same name, after the prayer Muslims should go round to seek for their share. That can be taken as "back to work" I know that Friday is an official "off day" in some muslim countries and don't want to go beyond my limits of knowledge. Of course Allah knows best.

Surah 9 verse 30 drives attention to another point about Jews. That is their attribution of a son to Allah as some of the Christians did. This is contrary to the acceptance of "one and only God" in Islam as is the "selected nation" paradigm.

Some of the references I read about the subject say that Jews were expecting a prophet but from their nation. That is why they denied Mohammad (sav).

Stories of Moses (as), and David (as) occupy a considerable place in Koran and give idea about Jewish attitude against the prophets.

As we all believe Allah knows best.

  السلام عليكم

     This would be very beautiful, but the word in Hebrew is spelled with a yud, which means it must mean songs.  If the yud were missing, then it would mean "The respectful ones".  And this would be a perfect link to what you are saying.

     Thus I think that Muhammad, praise be unto him, used the word Hasher, (sounds similar), meaning "The respectful", as he was respectful of Allah, the most merciful.  Also, in Arabic, the term "bashir", which sounds similar to "hashir", means "the announcer", as in "The prophet".   So, I think there was some confusion which I hope this clears up.
