Asalaamu alaikum...
I recently saw a chart that showed Prophets in Islam compared to their Biblical counterparts, and for the prophet Salih (pbuh) they showed Methuselah. I can see the last few letters being similar, but other than that I can find NO connection or anything similar between the two. Methuselah's claim to fame in the Bible was living to 969 years old and being Noe's grandson. I can't find anywhere (in the Bible) that he was a prophet or messenger.
Am I missing something?
JazakAllah khairyn
