Muhammed, (ca. 570 Mecca -- June 8, 632 Medina),[6] is the central human figure of the religion of Islam and is regarded by Muslims as the messenger and prophet of God (Arabic: الله Allāh), the last and the greatest in a series of prophets of Islam. Muslims consider him the restorer of the uncorrupted original monotheistic faith (islām) of Adam, Abraham, Moses, Noah and other prophets of Islam.[7][8][9] He was also active as a diplomat, merchant, philosopher, orator, legislator, reformer, military general, and, according to Muslim belief, an agent of divine action.[10]
Born in 570 CE in the Arabian city of Mecca,[11] he was orphaned at a young age and was brought up under the care of his uncle. He later worked mostly as a merchant, and was first married by age 26. Discontented with life in Mecca, he retreated to a cave in the surrounding mountains for meditation and reflection. According to Islamic beliefs it was here, at age 40, in the month of Ramadan, where he received his first revelation from God. Three years after this event Muhammad started preaching these revelations publicly, proclaiming that "God is One", that complete "surrender" to Him (lit. islām) is the only way (dīn)[12] acceptable to God, and that he himself was a prophet and messenger of God, in the same vein as Adam, Noah, Abraham, Moses, David, Jesus and other prophets in Islam.[13][14][9]
Muhammad gained few followers early on, and was met with hostility from some tribes of Mecca; he was treated harshly and so were his followers. To escape persecution Muhammad and his followers migrated to Medina (then known as Yathrib) in the year 622. This event, the Hijra, marks the beginning of the Islamic calendar. In Medina Muhammad managed to unite the conflicting tribes, and after eight years of fighting with the Meccan tribes, his followers, who by then had grown to ten thousand, conquered Mecca. In 632 a few months after returning to Medina from his Farewell pilgrimage, Muhammad fell ill and died. By the time of his death most of the Arabian Peninsula had converted to Islam.[15]
The revelations (or Ayats, lit. "Signs of God"), which Muhammad reported receiving until his death, form the verses of the Qur'an, regarded by Muslims as the "word of God", around which his religion is based. Besides the Qur'an, Muhammad's life (sira) and traditions (sunnah) are also upheld by Muslims. They discuss Muhammad and other prophets of Islam with reverence, adding the phrase peace be upon him whenever their names are mentioned.[16] While conceptions of Muhammad in medieval Christendom and premodern times were largely negative, appraisals in modern times have been far less so.[14][17] Besides this, his life and deeds have been debated by followers and opponents over the centuries.[18]
@kloveradio1 LOL! The same can also be said about some of the gnostic gospels, for example, the gospel of Thomas predates Matthew, Luke & John. Why don't you add it into NT?

@FireStorm794 That's an empty accusation. Tabari reflects Ibn Ishaq, the oldest Islamic historian. They are the closest writers to Muhammad's day, and therefore, credible by seniority. Furthermore, Tabari uses precise times, places, and names in his narritives, and this particular case, gives us a context the Qur'an never bothers to. He is studied in such places as Al-Azhar University in Egypt.
I daresay you dislike him because his testimony is so damning to Islam's "peace" myth.

@kloveradio1 LOL stop quoting Tabari, everyone knows it contains fabricated Hadiths....It would like me quoting gnostic gospel to a Christian.

You might be one of them, Muslim or not. Predestination doesn't discriminate between believers and unbelievers. :O
Tabari I:305 "Then Allah rubbed Adam's back and brought forth his progeny. He took two handfuls and said to those on the right, 'Enter Paradise! And He said to the others, 'Enter the Fire! I do not care.'"
Qur'an 56:8 "Those of the right hand - how happy will be those of the right hand! Those of the left hand - how unhappy will be those of the left hand!"

ALLAH PREDESTINES PEOPLE TO HELL
Qur’an 5: 41 “But he for whom Allah intends fitnah - never will you possess [power to do] for him a thing against Allah. Those are the ones for whom Allah does not intend to purify their hearts. For them in this world is disgrace, and for them in the Hereafter is a great punishment.”

@kloveradio1 God has set right and wrong. God is merciful that even persistent liars like you get the chance to speak against the Almighty! Deliberately being in the path of hatred will lead one to Hell. And that is a warning - good that you are testifyin it yourself.
