In islam the Holy Bible is termed as Enjil and Jesus Termed as Esa (peace be upon him). Many Muslims believe that the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ(peace be upon him)'s (which Muslims believe that he came after Jesus and is the last of the Abrahamic prophets) prophethood in Islam was foretold in Holy Bible.
Christianity is treat Jesus as the son of God. But, Islam is only religion which says Jesus not as son of God but as Prophet of God (Allaah).

The Lines In Bible about Muhammad ﷺ(peace be upon him):

1. Genesis 49:10
The scepter shall not depart from Judah, Nor a lawgiver from between his feet, Until Shiloh comes; And to Him shall be the obedience of the people.
—Genesis 49:10
Some writers, like David Benjamin, believe that the Hebrew word Shiloh is actually a distortion of the Hebrew word "Shaluh" which means "Apostle/Messenger/One to be sent" or of the Hebrew word "Shiluah" which means "Apostle of God".


2. Deuteronomy 18:18-20
18 I will raise up for them a prophet (Prophet) from among their brethren like you, and will put My words in his mouth; and he shall speak to them all that I command him. 19 And whoever will not hearken to My words which he shall speak in My name, I Myself will require it of him. 20 But the prophet who presumes to speak a word in My name which I have not commanded him to speak, or who speaks in the name of other gods, that same prophet shall die.
—Deuteronomy 18:18-20
Samau'al al-Maghribi, a Jewish mathematician who converted to Islam, pointed to Deuteronomy 18:18 in his book 'Convincing the Jews' as a prophecy fulfilled by Muhammad ﷺ.
3. Deuteronomy 33:2
"He said, "The Lord came from Sinai and dawned from Seir upon us; he shone forth from Mount Paran; he came from the ten thousand of holy ones, with flaming fire at his right hand."
—Deuteronomy 33:2
Samau'al al-Maghribi referred to this verse also in his book as a prophecy of Muhammad ﷺ. He said that Mount Sinai refers to Moses, Mount Seir "the Mount of Esau" refers to Jesus, and Mount Paran "the Mount of Ishmael" refers to Muhammad ﷺ.
4. Psalm 45
Psalm 45:1-17 is a prophecy and a song of praise for the king. It is describing no one other than Muhammad ﷺ for the following reasons:

The beauty of the king: "You are the most excellent of men". [Psalm 45:2]
The sword of the king and his glorious victories over his enemies: "Gird your sword on your side, you mighty one; clothe yourself with splendor and majesty. In your majesty ride forth victoriously in the cause of truth, humility and justice; let your right hand achieve awesome deeds. Let your sharp arrows pierce the hearts of the king’s enemies; let the nations fall beneath your feet". [Psalm 45:3-5]
Kings’ daughters [Ayesha, Hafsa and Safiyya] are among the honorable women of the king: "Daughters of kings are among your honored women" [Psalm 45:9]:
King David addressing Safiyya bint Huyayy "his daughter" who married Muhammad ﷺ: "Listen, daughter, and pay careful attention: Forget your people and your father’s house. Let the king be enthralled by your beauty; honor him, for he is your lord." [Psalm 45:10-11]
gifts sent by kings [Al-Muqawqis] to him: "The city of Tyre will come with a gift, people of wealth will seek your favor." [Psalm 45:12]
His name is "the highly-praised one": "I will perpetuate your memory through all generations; therefore the nations will praise you for ever and ever." [Psalm 45:17]
5. Psalm 110
A Psalm of David. The LORD said to my lord: "Sit at My right, Until I make thine enemies thy footstool."—Psalm 110:1
Psalm 110:1 is also a prophecy of Muhammad ﷺ and his ascension to the Throne of God during the journey of al-Isra and al-Miraj.

6. Isaiah 40:3
The voice of one crying in the wilderness:
"Prepare the way of the Lord; Make straight in the desert
A highway for our God.
—Isaiah 40:3
7. Isaiah 42
"Behold! My Servant, whom I uphold; My Elect One, in whom My soul delights! I have put My Spirit upon Him; He will bring forth justice to the Gentiles. 2 He shall not cry out, nor raise His voice, nor cause His voice to be heard in the street. 3 A bruised reed shall He not break, and smoking flax shall He not quench. In truth He shall bring forth justice. 4 He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till He has established justice in the earth; and the islands shall wait for His law."
—Isaiah 42:1
Isaiah 42 is among the earliest and the most common prophecies referred to by Muslims. Since the time of Muhammad ﷺ, Muslims believed that it was fulfilled by no one other than him. Muhammad ﷺ is believed by Muslims to be the Chosen Servant of God and his Light, while Christians claim that Jesus (peace be upon him) was God, begotten of God, not the servant of God. Thus, some Muslim writers argue Christians have no right to call Isaiah 42 a prophecy of Jesus (peace be upon him). Qur'an 3:159, Qur'an 9:128 and Qur'an 68:4 shed a light on the gentle character of Muhammad ﷺ, and from the time they knew him, Muslims looked at Muhammad ﷺ as the mercy sent by God to all the creation.
8. Isaiah 42
Sing unto the Lord a new song, and His praise from the ends of the earth, you who go down to the sea, and all that is therein, the islands, and the inhabitants thereof! 11 Let the wilderness and its cities lift up their voice, the villages that Kedar inhabits. Let the inhabitants of Sela sing, let them shout from the top of the mountains. 12 Let them give glory to the Lord, and declare His praise in the islands. 13 The Lord shall go forth like a mighty man; He shall stir up jealousy like a man of war: He shall cry, yea, roar; He shall prevail against His enemies.
—Isaiah 42:10
Isaiah 42:13 is believed to be a prophecy of the Muslim conquests. "the new song" is often interpreted as a reference to the Arabic Qur'an or to the Adhan "the Islamic call to prayer". The Islands could be a reference to Indonesia and Malaysia.
The mention of Mount Sela (Arabic: جبل سلع, Hebrew: הר סלע) "the mountain of Medina" and the mention of Kedar "the forefather of Muhammad ﷺ", in verse 11, is also considered to be a proof.

9. Isaiah 54
"Sing, O barren, lYou who have not borne! Break forth into singing, and cry aloud, You who have not labored with child! For more are the children of the desolate Than the children of the married woman," says the Lord.
—Isaiah 54:1
The "barren one" refers to Mecca, since no prophet came from it before Muhammad ﷺ.


"Enlarge the place of your tent, stretch your tent curtains wide, do not hold back; lengthen your cords, strengthen your stakes. For you will spread out to the right and to the left—Isaiah 54:2-3
This passage is believed to be a prophecy of the Muslim conquests.
10. Habakkuk 3
God will come from the south, and the holy one from mount Pharan: His glory covered the heavens, and the earth is full of his praise.
—Habakkuk 3:3
This prophecy is also commonly cited as a prophecy of Muhammad ﷺ. Since there is no connection between Jesus (peace be upon him) and Mount Paran "the Mount of Ishmael", Muslims argue that the "holy one" in this verse is Muhammad ﷺ. They often interpret the Coming of God from the south of Palestine as a reference to the cradle of Islam in the western coast of Arabia.
11. Dead Sea Scrolls
These scrolls predict the coming of two messiahs. These two messiahs are referred to as a priestly messiah from the lineage of Aaron and a kingly messiah from the lineage of David. The priestly messiah of Aaron is identified as Jesus son of Mary (peace be upon them) in the light of Qur'an 19:28 which says that Mary "the mother of Jesus" came from the lineage of Aaron. The kingly messiah is identified as Muhammad ﷺ in the light of the gospel of Barnabas, Mark 12:35-37, Luke 20:41-44 and Matthew 22:42-46 which all assert that the coming messiah "the kingly messiah" is not going to be from the lineage of David. Margaret S. King argues, in Chapter 12 of her book "Unveiling The Messiah in the Dead Sea Scrolls", that the Jews were informed by the son of Mary that the kingly messiah whom they were expecting would come from the lineage of Ishmael.

12. The manifestation of the light of God in bibleref2|Deuteronomy|33:2|NIV, and in bibleref2|Exodus|3:1–3:4|NIV and bibleref2|Habakkuk|3:3|NIV in the Desert of Paran, which Arabic tradition locates in the region of Mecca. (bible 2|Genesis|21|NIV associates Hagar (Bible)|Hagar and Ishmael (ancestors of Muhammad ﷺ) with the Desert of Paran.)

13. Prophecy in Deuteronomy 15:18 and 18 it has named his remarks that God puts in her mouth and the Israelites should brothers be Ishmael.


14. Muslims often regard Isaiah 42 as a direct foretelling of  Muslim scholars assert that the passage describes the people of Kedar, (descendants of Ishmael and the ancestors of Muhammad ﷺ) and thus the passage refers to Muhammad ﷺ himself. Word Atmak not necessarily means ‘whom I uphold’ but is infact  not a name The writing of Atmak is אתמך. The writing of Ahmad is אחמד.
Isaiah 42:1
God says

“Behold, 'My Servant' (pronounced as Abd-ee), ‘whom I uphold’ (pronounced as Atmak);
God mentioning about the coming of His servant Behold My Servant Ahmad (Isaiah 42:1) 
- so who is this Ahmad as in God'servant?
He is none other than Abd-Allah Ahmad (Servant of God, Ahmad) - Prophet Muhammad
ﷺ.

—Qur'an 21:107
Say, "He is Allah , [who is] One, Allah , the Eternal Refuge. He neither begets nor is born, Nor is there to Him any equivalent." —Qur'an 112

Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) mentioned by name in the old testament:
Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is mentioned by name in the Song of Solomon chapter 5 verse 16:
"Hikko Mamittakim we kullo Muhammadim Zehdoodeh wa Zehraee Bayna Jerusalem."
"His mouth is most sweet: yea, he is altogether lovely. This is my beloved, and this is my friend, O daughters of Jerusalem."
In the Hebrew language im is added for respect. Similarely im is added after the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) to make it Muhammadim. In English translation they have even translated the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as "altogether lovely", but in the Old Testament in Hebrew, the name of Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is yet present.
