Who is the Prophet Muhammad?

Muhammad lived for 63 years in the late 6th century, to early 7th century. He was born and raised in Mecca. At age 40 he experienced a mid-life crisis, and retreated to a cave in the Meccan surrounds. At this age he supposedly experienced a revelation from the angel Gabriel concerning Allah (the Arabic word for god, also the name of the Muslim god). He continued to receive such revelations throughout the remainder of his life. Right before the last ten years of his life, he moved to Medina where he became a warlord, conquering much of the Arabian Peninsula through warfare.

@Bear: you are the paedophile Prophet Muhammad is the seal of the prophets. There is no prophet will come after him.

A paedophile religious leader. Unlike Jesus or Moses he actually has some documented evidence to support his existence.

Actually all the Prophets were sent by ALLAH to eradicate darkness & establish Islam in this world. The Prophets who were revealed the previous Divine books , Torah, Bible etc, couldn't flourish it as the books were re-scripted by some evil jews. Then ALLAH sent HIS last Prophet Muhammad (P.B.U.H) to spread & preach Islam by all means allowed by ALLAH. ALLAH made Him the last of Prophets to seize Prophethood till the end of the world. He was revealed The Holy Quran & ALLAH HIMSELF took the responsibility for the protection of the teachings of Quran. Prophet Muhammad ( P.B.U.H) spread Islam by preaching & teaching about it. He did it in the best way as he also practised what He preached. He even fought to establish Islam, but not on His own will but according to the decree of ALLAH. Prophet (P.B.U.H) taught people how to live according to ALLAH's will & he himself did everything after seeking ALLAH's permission through revelations. He is not only a role model for muslims, He is a role model for whole humanity.

PROPHET MUHAMMAD (pbuh) IN THE BIBLE Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) in the Old Testament: The Qur’an mentions in Surah Al-Araf chapter 7 verse 157: "Those who follow the Messenger, the unlettered Prophet, whom they find mentioned in their own (scriptures) in the law and the Gospel". 1. MUHAMMAD (PBUH) PROPHESISED IN THE BOOK OF DEUTERONOMY: Almighty God speaks to Moses in Book of Deuteronomy chapter 18 verse 18: "I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and I will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him." The Christians say that this prophecy refers to Jesus (pbuh) because Jesus (pbuh) was like Moses (pbuh). Moses (pbuh) was a Jew, as well as Jesus (pbuh) was a Jew. Moses (pbuh) was a Prophet and Jesus (pbuh) was also a Prophet. If these two are the only criteria for this prophecy to be fulfilled, then all the Prophets of the Bible who came after Moses (pbuh) such as Solomon, Isaiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, Hosea, Joel, Malachi, John the Baptist, etc. (pbut) will fulfill this prophecy since all were Jews as well as prophets. However, it is Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) who is like Moses (pbuh): i) Both had a father and a mother, while Jesus (pbuh) was born miraculously without any male intervention. [Mathew 1:18 and Luke 1:35 and also Al-Qur'an 3:42-47] ii) Both were married and had children. Jesus (pbuh) according to the Bible did not marry nor had children. iii) Both died natural deaths. Jesus (pbuh) has been raised up alive. (4:157-158) Muhammad (pbuh) is from among the brethren of Moses (pbuh). Arabs are brethren of Jews. Abraham (pbuh) had two sons: Ishmail and Isaac (pbut). The Arabs are the descendants of Ishmail (pbuh) and the Jews are the descendants of Isaac (pbuh). Words in the mouth: Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was unlettered and whatever revelations he received from Almighty God he repeated them verbatim. "I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him." [Deuteronomy 18:18] iv) Both besides being Prophets were also kings i.e. they could inflict capital punishment. Jesus (pbuh) said, "My kingdom is not of this world." (John 18:36). v) Both were accepted as Prophets by their people in their lifetime but Jesus (pbuh) was rejected by his people. John chapter 1 verse 11 states, "He came unto his own, but his own received him not." iv) Both brought new laws and new regulations for their people. Jesus (pbuh) according to the Bible did not bring any new laws. (Mathew 5:17-18). 2. It is Mentioned in the book of Deuteronomy chapter 18:19 "And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not harken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him." 3. Muhammad (pbuh) is prophesised in the book of Isaiah: It is mentioned in the book of Isaiah chapter 29 verse 12: "And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saying, Read this, I pray thee: and he saith, I am not learned." When Archangel Gabrail commanded Muhammad (pbuh) by saying Iqra - "Read", he replied, "I am not learned". 4. 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.

what he did was the result of circumstances. God never seds messages of hatred. the quran says 'do not make friends with the Christians'
