they are non muslims said these words about Muhammad(PBUH)\ni know its too long \nyou can read some of it\n\n\nMahatma Gandhi, speaking on the character of Muhammad, (pbuh) says in (Young India):\n\n \n"I wanted to know the best of one who holds today's undisputed sway over the hearts of millions of mankind....I became more than convinced that it was not the sword that won a place for Islam in those days in the scheme of life. It was the rigid simplicity, the utter self-effacement of the Prophet, the scrupulous regard for his pledges, his intense devotion to this friends and followers, his intrepidity, his fearlessness, his absolute trust in God and in his own mission. These and not the sword carried everything before them and surmounted every obstacle. When I closed the 2nd volume (of the Prophet's biography), I was sorry there was not more for me to read of the great life."

BIOGRAPHY OF PROPHET MUHAMMAD (pbuh)\n\nDr. A. Zahoor and Dr. Z. Haq\n(Copyright 1990, 1997, 1998 All Rights Reserved)\n\nProphet Muhammad (s) was born in 570 CE in Makkah (Bakka, Baca, Mecca). His father, Abdullah, died several weeks before his birth in Yathrib (Medinah) where he went to visit his father's maternal relatives. His mother died while on the return journey from Medinah at a place called ‘Abwa’ when he was six years old. He was raised by his paternal grandfather 'Abd al Muttalib (Shaybah) until the age of eight, and after his grandfather’s death by Abu Talib, his paternal uncle. 'Abd al Muttalib's mother, Salma, was a native of Medinah and he was born and raised as a young boy in Medinah before his uncle Muttalib brought him to Makkah to succeed him. Many years before Muhammad's birth, 'Abd al Muttalib had established himself as an influential leader of the Arab tribe ‘Quraish’ in Makkah and took care of the Holy sanctuary ‘Ka’bah’. Makkah was a city state well connected to the caravan routes to Syria and Egypt in the north and northwest and Yemen in the south. Muhammad was a descendant of Prophet Ismail through the lineage of his second son Kedar. \n\nKa'bah is the first house of worship built on earth for the worship of Allah, the One True God. It was re-built (raised from the existing foundation) by Prophets Ibrahim (Abraham) and Ismail (Ishmael). Allah is the proper name of the One True God, creator and sustainer of the universe, who does not have a partner or associate, and He did not beget nor was He begotten. Unlike the word god, the word Allah does not have a plural or gender. \n\nUnder the guardianship of Abu Talib, Muhammad (s) began to earn a living as a businessman and a trader. At the age of twelve, he accompanied Abu Talib with a merchant caravan as far as Bostra in Syria. Muhammad was popularly known as ‘al-Ameen’ for his unimpeachable character by the Makkans and visitors alike. The title Al-Ameen means the Honest, the Reliable and the Trustworthy, and it signified the highest standard of moral and public life. \n\nUpon hearing of Muhammad’s impressive credentials, Khadijah, a rich merchant widow, asked Muhammad (s) to take some merchandise for trade to Syria. Soon after this trip when he was twenty-five, Khadijah proposed marriage to Muhammad through a relative. Muhammad accepted the proposal. At that time, Khadijah was twice widowed and forty years old. Khadijah (ra) and Muhammad (s) were the parents of six children - four daughters and two sons. His first son Qasim died at the age of two. He was nicknamed Abul Qasim, meaning the father of Qasim. His second son Abdullah died in infancy. Abdullah was also called affectionately as ‘Tayyab’ and ‘Tahir’ because he was born after Muhammad’s prophethood. The four daughters were: Zainab, Ruqayyah, Umm Kulthum, and Fatimah (ra). \n\nThe Holy sanctuary Ka’bah was now filled with three hundred sixty idols. The original, pristine message of Prophet Ibrahim was lost, and it was mixed with superstitions and traditions of pilgrims and visitors from distant places, who were used to idol worship and myths. In every generation, a small group of men and women detested the pollution of Ka’bah and kept pure their practice of the religion taught by Prophets Ibrahim and Ismail. They used to spend some of their time away from this polluted environment in retreats to nearby hills. \n\nMuhammad (s) was forty when, during his one of many retreats to Mount Hira for meditation during the month of Ramadan, he received the first revelation from the Archangel Jibril (Gabriel). On this first appearance, Gabriel (as) said to Muhammad: "Iqraa," meaning Read or Recite. Muhammad replied, "I cannot read," as he had not received any formal education and did not know how to read or write. The Angel Gabriel then embraced him until he reached the limit of his endurance and after releasing said: "Iqr

Those who believe in Nation of Islam are NOT muslims. According to Nation of Islam there came another prophet after prophet Mohammad (PBUH) which contradicts with Islam. And they also consider blacks to be superior then all other races, whereas Islam considers every one as equal. Simple as that.

Jesus (pbuh) teachings were exactly the same as Muhammad(pbuh) , they called for the same God which is ONE and Almighty. Jesus and Muhammad both were Holy prophets But Alas !!! Sait Paul has changed the whole concept of christanity and its totaly different now .And they did more damage to their religion by changing Bible hundred of times. there are number of confusions in their religion but wish they admit and seek for the truth. May Allah guide all of us Ameen !!!

The Holy Prophet Muhammad, is reported to have said that the best among men is the one who is best in his treatment to his wife. Hadhrat Ayesha, his honoured wife (may Allah be pleased with her), is reported to have replied to those who desired to know more about the Holy Prophet's character after his death: His character was the Quran. He practised what he preached and he preached what he practised. `Muhammad' literally means the Praised One and the Holy Quran says: \n\nAllah sends down His blessings on the Prophet and His angels pray for him. O ye who believe, you too should invoke God's blessings on him and salute him with the salutation of peace. (33:57) \nHe was not an innovation as a Prophet (46:10) and there are prophecies about his advent both in the Torah and the Gospels (7:58). The Holy Prophet had a promise of divine protection (5:68) and was guarded and helped by the angels (13:12 & 66:5).\n\nThere is no myth or mystery about his life. His life was an open book. He was known as the Truthful and the Honest one and lived a pure life before his claim to prophethood (10:17). Every detail about his life is well preserved in history. It is a well known fact that he was not able to read or write as he never had the opportunity to go to any school to learn from any teacher. God was his teacher. He received his call from God at the age of forty to proclaim the message of Islam to mankind:\n\nThere is no god but Allah and Muhammad is His Messenger.\n\nThe Holy Prophet's life was dedicated to the dual purpose of re-establishing on earth the Unity of God, our Creator, Who alone is worthy of our worship and through establishing that relationship with God people should become civilized and behave justly towards one another.\n\nHis mission was to recite the Signs of God, teach people the book and wisdom and purify them (2:130 & 62:2-3).\n\nIt is a historical fact that when the Meccans offered to give him anything he wanted, his reply was totally uncompromising on the question of the Unity of God. He said: \n\nI will not renounce my message from God even if they put the sun on my right hand and the moon on my left. \n\nThe Holy Prophet and his followers suffered all kinds of injuries and persecution at Mecca for thirteen long years and when life for them became unbearable, they migrated to Medina. The Meccans having failed in their plot to kill the Prophet, now pursued the Muslims to Medina. God then permitted the believers to fight the aggressors in order to end persecution and to defend their rights. \n\nThe Holy Quran was revealed to the Holy Prophet over a period of twenty-three years which was just completed before he died (and all Prophets had died before him, 4:154) at the age of sixty-three. The religion of Islam was firmly established in Arabia. \n\nHe was a perfect man (22:2), a perfect leader (36:2) and an excellent exemplar for mankind (33:22). God says: \n\nO Prophet, We have sent thee as a witness, and a bearer of glad tidings and a warner, and as a summoner unto Allah by His command and a light-giving sun. (33:46-47) \nHadhrat Muhammad was Allah's Messenger for all mankind (4:80, 7:159, 34:29). He was sent as a mercy for all mankind (21:108). He received revelation from God as did previous Prophets (4:164, 42:4) and he was enjoined to convey the revelation to the people (5:68). He was commanded to be alert and ever ready to spread the truth (74:2) and saw his success in the propagation of Islam during his life time (110:3). \n\nHis message was universal (34:29) and he always yearned that mankind should believe (18:7, 26:4, 93:8). He was the Seal of the Prophets (33:41) and achieved the highest status in nearness to Allah (53:9). The Holy Quran says: \n\nWhoso obeys Allah and this Messenger shall be among those upon whom Allah has bestowed His favours - the Prophets, the Faithful ones, the Martyrs and the Righteous; and they are excellent companions. (4:70)

Christianity has a long history of converting people "by the sword".  Just because they've decided in recent years that talking people to death is a better way to convert them doesn't mean that they don't have a long and violent history.  As for users of this line seeming content with accepting that any and all Muslims are terrorists, it's been my observation that most of the people who use this line are incredibly narrow-minded and blind to anything beyond what they believe, so are you really surprised that they'd rather stereotype all Muslims than hear an honest depiction of another religion?

It is interesting to note that protestations seem to go only one way.\n \nThe muslim bunch cheerfully ignore "insults" published against "Jews","Buddhists","Shinto's",\n"Christians"," Hindus","Deists", "Rastafarians","Wicca's", "Confucians", "Bahrain's", practioneers of \nVoodoo,  etc. and then riot in the streets when the media portrays Muhammad for what he was, i.e., \na blood-thirsty intolerant tyrant responsible for the deaths of millions of people.\n \nNo doubt they have this attitude as they do not recognize persons they consider as "unbelievers" to \nbe capable of being insulted.\n \nMany muslim dominated countries don't allow other religions holy books into their country and forbid \nthe proselytism within their borders of other religions as if they had something to fear.\n \nMuhammad's  so-called HOLY BOOK specifically calls out for the slaughter of all non-muslims.\n \nIt was his practice when he was alive and this practice remains a part of this groups tenets today.\n \nDeath due to one's beliefs totally dwarfs "cartoons" printed in a newspaper. \n[Death seems to have some degree of permanency]\n \nUntil they disavow this part of their bible, the Qur'an, I see no reason to offer up sympathy for them \nand their religion for this alleged insult.\n \nBTW, I considered the "cartoons" to be to the point and very well done.

I'm afraid my opinion of Islam isn't good, at all, Sir.\n\nAnd your quotation from the Koran hasn't helped improve it any better; I'm sorry to say, Sir.\n\nThe "strong handle" is perhaps a typo, Sir; because it really makes no sense to a Native English Speaker, like myself.  Besides the whole "quotation" is rather confusingly worded, Sir.\n\nNow, since you ask, Sir, may I enlighten you on why I  have the low opinion of Islam?\n\nFirst of all, Sir, the life of Mohammad is not exactly an inspiring one.\n\nHe took 12 wives, at least a couple of whom were more than 20 years senior to him when he was in his 20's, and they just happened to be rich old women,  and then took a 9 year old child for a wife, when he was "Prophet"  and in his 50's.\n\nThe words gigolo and pedophile come to mind, Sir.\n\nThe History of Violence, Intolerance and being somewhat deranged behavior of it's members are other factors that cause me to be repulsed by it, Sir.\n\nThere are many more reasons, but I think these suffice, Sir.\n\nDo have a nice day.

According to Muslims Muhammad was the last Prophet , they also believe that Jesus was a great Prophet, but not the last one. \nAs an atheist I have no reason to doubt either of these beliefs, if by Prophet you mean some one sent to preach the word of God! They both certainly did that!\nWhere they got this 'word of God' from is a different matter altogether. \nAs far as I can see anyone can set themselves up as a Prophet just as well today as they could then!\nIt's really up to you if you believe any of these 'words of God ' or not, or part with your money or not. \nBut just don't try to convince me of any of it!!

You sound like Guru Nanak. \n\nHe was a Muslim and said such things.\n\nThen his followers fell out with the other Muslims and started another religion

Adam was the very first prophet, Muhammad was the seal of all the prophets. All the prophets of God are all equal and true and good, we do not make any distinction among any of them.\n\nTo those who believe in God and His messengers and make no distinction between any of the messengers, we shall soon give their due rewards, because God is Oft Forgiven, Most Merciful. ...The Holy Quran, The Chapter of The women(An Nisaa)4 verse 152.\n\nO you messengers, enjoy all things good and pure and work righteousness: for I am well acquainted with all that you do. And verily, this brotherhood of yours is a single brotherhood and I am your Lord: therefore fear Me and no other.... The Holy Quran,The chapter of the believers (Al Mu'minun)23 verse 51-52\n\nAll prophets form one brotherhood: their message is one and their religion(Al Islam: Submission to the One True God) and teachings are one; they serve the One True God, who loves and cherishes them; and they owe their duty to Him and Him alone.\n\nThe people who began to trade on the names of the prophets cut off that unity and made sects; and each rejoices in its own narrow doctrine, instead of taking the universal teaching of unity from God. But this sectarian confusion is of man's making and it will last for some time, but the rays of truth and unity will finally dissipate it.

PROPHET MUHAMMAD PBUH PROHIBITED THE KILLING OF CHILDREN AND WOMEN\n\n"Narrated By 'Abdullah : During some of the Ghazawat of the Prophet Muhammad pbuh a woman was found killed. Allah's Apostle disapproved the killing of women and children".  Saheeh Bukhari (Volume 004, Book 052, Hadith Number 257)\n\nThose who are not generally engaged in fighting – like women, children, the elderly, the handicapped, and others who do not participate in the fighting – are not to be killed. The Prophet (peace be upon him) prohibited this. His prohibition of the killing of women and children is clearly related by Ibn `Umar in Sahîh al-Bukhârî (3015) and Sahîh Muslim (1744).\n\nBOOK OF Saheeh Muslim (Book 019, Hadith Number 4319)\nChapter : Prohibition of killing women and children in war. \n\nIt is narrated on the authority of 'Abdullah that a woman was found killed in one of the battles fought by the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him). He disapproved of the killing of women and children. \n\n ==========================================\n\n\nTO >>>>>>>>>>>>>>internationa...\n\nNEXT TIME DO READ THE QUESTION.\n\nit says "WOMAN AND CHILDREN"...AND I SUGGEST YOU TO READ WHAT I POSTED\n\nI HAVE RESPONSE FOR EACH AND EVERY VERSE YOU QUOTED.

Section I\n\nAnti-Islamic people often use the following verses to justify the stereotype that Islam is a religion of violence and intolerance, which was spread by the sword. The explanations here were aided by Abdullah Yusuf Ali's commentary on the Holy Quran.\n\nSura 8.12 "Remember thy lord has inspired the angels with the message. Give firmness to the believers and instill terror into the hearts of the unbelievers. Smite them above their necks and smite the fingertips of them."\n\nSura 9.5 "When the sacred months have passed, kill the idolaters whereever you find them."\n\nSura 47.4 "When you encounter the unbelievers, Strike off their heads. Untill you have made a wide slaughter among them tie up the remaining captives."\n\nSura 8 is about a BATTLE - the Battle of Badr - not just some daily affair. A battles take two side to occur. Are you under the impression that while these 'horrid' Muslims were fighting, the enemies were simply standing there like good little peaceful men?\n\nSura 47 was revealed during the first year of Hijrah when the Muslims were under *threat of extinction* by invasion from Makkah.\n\nSura 9 is interesting. Non-Muslims almost invariably quote verse 5 but leave out verse 4 and 6. Why? Because verse 4 says, "But the treatires are not dissolved with those Pagans with whom you have entered into alliance and who have you subsequently failed you in aught, nor aided anyone against you. So fulfill your engagements with them to the end of their term: for God Loves the righteous."\n\nAnd verse 6 says, "If one among the Pagans ask thee for asylum, grant it to him so that he may hear the Word of God; and then escort him to where he can be secure."\n\nSo basically what has been done above is:\n\n1. The background to each sura was shown. One cannot take a verse revealed for a battle and insist it is if for the daily affairs of Muslims.\n\n2. It was shown how Non-muslims who wish to attack Islam, conveniently leave out verses before and after their quoted verse. Above, I have shown only one of the many examples.\n\n \n\nSection II\n\nThis long list of verses from the Holy Quran and the Traditions of Prophet Muhammad (may peace be upon him) show that Islam at it's core and at its source is a religion of peace. Terrorists who persecute innocent people because of their faith are not welcome - their use of Islam as a scapegoat, does not make Islam what they portray it to be.\n\n2:256 There is no compulsion in religion, for the right way is clearly from the wrong way. Whoever therefore rejects the forces of evil and believes in God, he has taken hold of a support most unfailing, which shall never give way, for God is All Hearing and Knowing.\n\n16:82 But if they turn away from you, (O Prophet remember that) your only duty is a clear delivery of the Message (entrusted to you).\n\n6:107 Yet if God had so willed, they would not have ascribed Divinity to aught besides him; hence, We have not made you their keeper, nor are you (of your own choice) a guardian over them.\n\n4:79, 80 (Say to everyone of them,) 'Whatever good betides you is from God and whatever evil betides you is from your own self and that We have (O Prophet) sent you to mankind only as a messenger and all sufficing is God as witness. Whoso obeys the Messenger, he indeed obeys God. And for those who turn away, We have not sent you as a keeper."\n\n11:28 (Noah to his people) He (Noah) said "O my people! think over it! If 1 act upon a clear direction from my Lord who has bestowed on me from Himself the Merciful talent of seeing the right way, a way which you cannot see for yourself, does it follow that we can force you to take the right path when you definitely decline to take it?\n\n17:53, 54 And tell my servants that they should speak in a most kindly manner (unto those who do not share their beliefs). Verily, Satan is always ready to stir up discord between men; for verily; Sat
