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]
Prophet Muhammad S.A.W was sent by Allah to give us guidance, to guide us to the rightest path that we should've been.
As for Jesus, he is not dead. He's up there, he was saved by Allah.

@amtullah15 Its called freedom of speech, which Islam seems to be against. Muhammad was a pedophile (sex w/ a 9 yr old), hypocrite (had 10 wives others allowed 4), mass murderer, slave owner, raider of caravans, etc. Islam itself allows wife beating, slaying of infidels, not to take Xtians/Jews 4 friends, cutting off limbs for theft, flogging homos/adulterers, etc. Do Muslims know wat luv is or are their lives dictated by fear of an imaginary God?

@whorehouse3 Jainism, Buddhism, and Daoism = Peace. Islam = Fear and Violence. Muhammad was a pedophile (sex w/ 9 yr old), hypocrite (10 wives others 4), mass murderer, slave owner, raider of caravans, etc. Islam allows wife beating, not to take Jews/Xtians 4 friends, flogging of homos/adulterers, cutting off limbs of thieves, slaying of infidels, etc. Do Muslims know what luv is or are their lives dictated by fear of "God"?
