Nice try, bro. You talk of the "modern sense" of plague as it was some obscure case of rarely seen diseases, the plague in its modern sense is the same plague that caused the deadliest pandemics in history, including the Black Death.
I guess you are the ones trying to make words as loose and meaningless as possible to rule out prophecies. This same tactic performed by your ancestors is what made you lose the words of Jesus entirely, to be left with the song of songs........
In the first prophecy you tried to shoehorn into accuracy, you claimed that Muhammad had to use language his followers understood. In the second, you insist that ONLY the modern, specific definition of plague is applicable (you did this when you dismissed the cholera epidemic).
You can’t have it both ways.
