They do have one thing in common.  Neither Allah nor Ares exist.  The Quran has one thing right, if translated, "There is no God but God," but Muhammed is NOT his prophet.

Having read Poki Poki's answer about him "Spreading" Islam, I have to comment on this.  The reason you have to try and spread Islam, is because it is like a disease.  A violent, sick disease, who follows a murderer.  Mohammed was absolutely, categorically, NOTHING to do with the one true, Living God.  He was a fraud, a violent fraud, which is where it all comes from today

The extremists feel that ANY DEPICTION OF MUHAMMAD is blasphemy.. The depiction of him with a bomb with a lit fuse is a GLARING ATTACK on the fundamentalist Islamic faith..\n-------------------\nBorn Muhammad ibn Abdullah, he is said to have initially been a merchant who traveled widely.\n\nMuhammad often retreated to the mountains outside Mecca, for prayer and contemplation. Muslims believe that in 610, at about the age of forty, while praying in one of these mountain caves called Hira, he was visited by the Angel Gabriel who commanded him to memorize and recite the verses sent by God. These verses were later collected as part of the Qur'an. Gabriel told him that God (Allah in Arabic) had chosen him as the last prophet to mankind. He eventually expanded his mission as a prophet, publicly preaching a strict monotheism and warning against a Day of Judgement where all humans shall be held responsible for their deeds. He did not completely reject Judaism and Christianity, two other monotheistic faiths known to the Arabs; rather he said that he had been sent by God in order to complete and perfect their teachings. Many in Mecca resented his preaching and persecuted him and his followers. Muslims believe that this was in part due to his followers' holding Muhammad's authority above that of their leaders. Eventually, persecution followed and in 622, he was forced to flee from Mecca (the Hijra) and settled in Yathrib (now known as Medina) with his followers, where he was the leader of the first avowedly Muslim community. War between factions in Mecca and Medina followed, in which Muhammad and his followers were eventually victorious. The military organization that was created by this struggle was then set to conquering the other tribes of Arabia. By the time of Muhammad's death, he had unified Arabia, spread Islam throughout the Arabian Peninsula, and launched expeditions to the north, towards Syria and Palestine.\n\nUnder Muhammad's immediate successors, the Islamic empire expanded into Palestine, Syria, Mesopotamia, Persia, Egypt, North Africa, and Iberia. Later conquests, commercial contact between Muslims and non-Muslims, and missionary activity spread Islam over much of the globe.\n\nAll Muslims feel a great love and veneration for Muhammad, and express this feeling in many ways.\n\nWhen speaking or writing, Muhammad's name is preceded by the title "Prophet" and is followed by the phrase, Peace be upon him, or Peace be upon him and his descendants by Shias; in English often abbreviated as "(pbuh)" and "pbuh&hd", or just simply as "p". \nConcerts of Muslim and especially Sufi devotional music include songs praising Muhammad (see Muslim music, Qawwali). \nSome Muslims celebrate the birthday of Muhammad (Mawlid) with elaborate festivities. Others do not, believing that such festivities are modern innovations. \nCriticism of Muhammad is often equated with blasphemy, which is punishable by death in some Muslim states. \nMuhammad is often refered to with titles of praise. \nMuhammad's relics, such as his grave, his sword, his clothing, even strands of his hair, are revered by some. \nEven non-iconic representations of Muhammad are traditionally discouraged. From the 16th century, however, Persian and Ottoman art frequently represented Muhammad in miniatures, albeit with his face either veiled, or emanating radiance (see e.g. Siyer-i Nebi). Modern caricatures of Muhammad have caused great controversy and criticism (see Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons for an example). \nBeyond the stories accepted as canonical by Islamic scholars of hadith, or oral traditions, there are many folktales praising Muhammad and recounting miraculous stories of his birth, upbringing and life.

That was the original statement:  "If the mountain won't come to Muhammad, Muhammad must go to the mountain."\n\nIf the mountain won't come to Muhammad, Muhammad must go to the mountain. This expression is based on a tale that Muhammad once sought proof of his teachings by ordering a mountain to come to him. When it did not move, he maintained that God had been merciful, for if it had indeed moved they all would have been crushed by it. [Late 1500s] \n\nWhen he preached, he preached on top of the mountain or high grounds so as the people can hear him and see him better.  People kept asking for proof that he was a Prophet, as many prophets before him, did many miracles and he never did any. So, one day he decided to order the mountain to come to him, but the mountain did not move, and as usual, the Angel comes to his rescue and explained though Muhammad that the mountain didn't move for the protection of the people!! \n\nNow, you have to ask yourself why Muhammad asked the mountain to move!  The reason is that Jesus said: " if a person has enough faith in God, and asked the mountain to move, it will move."   Do you see the connection!

Simplified version: Christians don't acknowledge Muhammad to have been a prophet because he taught a number of things that are contrary to essential Christian doctrine.  For instance, Muhammad denied Yeshua's (Jesus') death, resurrection, and deity.  If someone were to accept Muhammad as a prophet, they would no longer be a Christian.  If acknowledging Muhammad as a prophet of God does not make one a Muslim on some level, then I don't know what would, and becoming a Muslim makes one no longer a Christian.\n\nMore complex answer: Whatever other prophets we may recognize-- whether they be God's prophets to the Israelites, John the Baptist, Yeshua (Jesus) Himself, Peter, Paul, any of the other apostles, or even people today through whom God may yet deign to speak on some level (although whether or not He actually does on the same level as in times past is a matter of some debate within the Christian community)-- whatever other prophets we may recognize, it simply isn't possible for a Christian to remain a Christian while simultaneously embracing the teachings of Muhammad insofar as they contradict basic, essential tenets of Christian theology.  Unless one plays some really funny word games and defines Christianity out of its historic confessions-- even the most basic creeds, such as the Nicene and Apostolic Creeds-- one cannot be a Christian and accept the teachings of Muhammad concerning who Yeshua (Jesus) was.\n\nThis question is somewhat like asking why Sunnis do not believe that Husayn/Hussein was really a caliph.  However, to make the analogy proper, Husayn/Hussein would have had to have denied several facts central to Islam about Muhammad.  To achieve the sort of drastic effect that is required to make this comparison work, the question would have to be something like... "Why do Sunni's acknowledge other caliphs, but not Husayn/Hussein, who denied that Muhammad is Allah's prophet?"  (Naturally, Husayn/Hussein never really denied that Muhammad was Allah's prophet, but for the sake of a fare comparison between the two questions, such must be pretended.)

Because Christianity and Bible were modified right after Jesus Christ(PBUH) was taken to the heavens. He did not die(as Christians believe) he'll return on earth before the Dooms day. The same Jew who planned to hang and kill Jesus(PBUH) later converted to Christianity was the first modifier of Allah's(GOD) message revealed on Jesus'(PBUH). The Bible of today is not in the exact shape as it was at the time it was revealed on Jesus(PBUH). It was being modified. Qurran is the only Holy book which is in the same form as it was revealed on Prophet Muhammad(PBUH). Islam is the continuation of Gods messages. Jesus(PBUH) was the Prophet of God not son. Adam is the first Prophet and Muhammad is the last Prophet. Qurran is the last message from God.

Here's the thing...God is way wiser than any person, including Muhammad.  God would know that if something like that were permissable, then people would misuse it to enslave women/their wives.\n\nTherefore, it is not a hadith that woman bow down before her husband.  'I would have' is not the same as 'I do order'\n\nInstead, wives are required to respect their husbands...that's nothing new and revolutionary.\n\nAnd husbands are to love their wives.  God knows what He's talking about when he prescribes behaviour to married people.  The same mesasge is contained in the Bible.

there were many Religions before Muhammad including the Jewish religion , 560 yrs after Jesus  Muhammad was born during those times people in Arabia had many idols 300 to be exact one for every day. there were also Christians and Jews in Arabia. The City of Mecca housed these Gods and the people from all around would come and visit their God. at the age of 40 Muhammad started preaching The one God religion in Arabic called Islam and the word for God in Arabic is Allah the name Allah is like the word Adonai, God,Yahweh, Elli,Elohim, Jah, these names are not and can not be mistaken for anything but the one unseen God. As he preached some accepted some didn't, some agreed some didn't the main reason why the people of Mecca disagreed with him was because of economics see as long as Mecca has idols that people could see then they would come and visit their idols and spend money in Mecca. when the people heard about this one God and a God you couldn't see they were worried and upset at the potential loss of revenue. so they fought him. many  Jews and Christians remained in their religions and still supported Muhammad many also changed religions and followed him. and a small amount fought him. but under his rule the Jews and the christians were never forced to change religions they were free to practice their religion. and that is why we still have one of the oldest forms of christanity being practiced is today in egypt and Arabia called Coptic christians in fact Muhammad married a Coptic christian woman name Mary.

Muhammad was born around 570 C.E. in Mecca into the powerful Quraysh tribe and the respected Banu Hashim clan.  Muhammad was orphaned at a young age and so he had different caretakers throughout his formative years.  His father, Abdallah ibn Abd al-Muttalib, died before Muhammad was born and his mother Amina died when he was only six years old.  His grandfather Abd al-Muttalib took over his care, but died two years later.  From then on, Muhammad was cared for by his uncle Abu Talib.  \nMuhammad started out as a shepherd, but he eventually became a merchant.  In his twenties, he met Khadija, a wealthy widow, and became the manager of her caravan.  She was impressed with him because of his integrity and success as a merchant, so she proposed to him, and he accepted.  This marriage greatly improved Muhammad’s financial situation and may be considered somewhat of a turning point for him as up until that time he was a humble orphan.\nMuhammad grew to be concerned with some of the practices he observed among his fellow Arabs.  Some of the pre-Islamic Arabs buried infant girls alive, apparently to avert economic hardship and to avoid the risk of the daughter developing a bad reputation, which would be a scar on the family.  As an orphan, it is no wonder that Muhammad felt a special compassion for these infants, other orphans, widows, the poor, and other social outcasts.  \nMuhammad took to retreating on a regular basis to Mount Hira, where he would meditate inside of a cave.  It is here during one of these retreats that Muhammad the Prophet was born.  He began to receive revelations which frightened him terribly at first.  A voice told him that he was the messenger of God and eventually the presence revealed itself as the angel Gabriel.  Gabriel instructed Muhammad, “Recite!”  Muhammad objected that he was unable to recite, but when Gabriel insisted, he asked, “What shall I recite?”  Then Gabriel revealed to him the very first verses of what would come to be known as the Qur’an, meaning “recitation.”  Muhammad thereafter continued to receive verses until he died.\nHis wife Khadija believed in Muhammad’s message, and soon a few others also converted to the new religion of submission to Allah.  But by and large, in the early years of his Prophethood, the people of Mecca were angered by his teachings.  He criticized the religion of their fathers and had it not been for the protection of his uncle Abu Talib, Muhammad may have been greatly persecuted.  In fact the rest of the Muslims, who were mostly of lower classes, were persecuted to the extent that many emigrated to Abyssinia.  \nIn 619, Abu Talib died, leaving Muhammad without a protector.  His supportive wife Khadijah also died this same year.  These challenges and tragedies in his life did not deter the Prophet, and he continued to receive guidance from Allah.  In one of the most celebrated events of Muhammad’s life, he was sleeping near the Ka’ba when he saw the angel Gabriel come.  The angel cut Muhammad open, removed his heart and entrails, washed them in a golden basin, and placed them back into his body.  Then Gabriel brought Buraq, a magical horse, who took Muhammad on a journey through the sky to Jerusalem.  From there he was taken up through the seven heavens where he reached God Himself.  \nSome men from the city of Yathrib came to Mecca for the pilgrimage in 620, where they met Muhammad and were impressed with him.  They needed a strong leader who could arbitrate in their city, where the tribes were at war.  These men embraced Islam and invited Muhammad to be their leader.  In the year 622, several Muslims emigrated to Yathrib, which came to be known as Medina.  Muhammad himself escaped death to travel to Medina in that same year which was so pivotal that it marked the start of the Islamic calendar.  \nThis move was so important because it was in Medina that an authentic Muslim community, the umma could be established away from the danger of Mecca.

Because he is a man of God. Like Jesus said to turn the other cheek. Both Jesus and Muhammad are wise, compassionate and loving people who respect and fear their God and love their fellow man as we all should. Too bad we all haven't caught on. God bless. =)

Check out the wikipedia article on muhammad.\n\nHeres my BRIEF, answers to your questions.\n\nBefore he recieved revelations, he would go to the Cave of Hira and meditate for hours.  One night, while he was in the cave, Angel Gabriel came to him and told him that God had selected him to be the last messenger to mankind.  He was very scared and worried.  He thought he was seeing things.  Then Gabriel hugged him and squeezed him tight and said "Read! In the name of your Lord..." AND SO BEGAN THE HOLY QUR'AN - A SERIES OF REVELATIONS TO MUHAMMAD DIRECTLY FROM GOD VIA THE ANGEL GABRIEL.  \n\nHe continued to receive revelations until I'm not exactly sure when.  \n\nHe preached a pure monotheism -- belief in One, True God in a land of majority pagan Arabia.  This is why he was not popular in Mecca.  The pagans saw him as a threat.  Another BIG reason why he was not too liked in Mecca is because the Meccans had a big pilgrimage site filled with pagan idols and it bought worshippers from all over arabia (which means a lot of $$$ for the business owners there).  Thus, Mecca was also a huge trading center -- mainly due to its significance of having the big religious center (where idols were worshipped, etc).\n\nMuhammad's mission was to spread the teaching of Islam -- he preached kindness toward others, modesty, giving charity, praying 5 times a day, leaving behind ignorant and wicked practices, freeing slaves, giving women more rights.\n\nHe was persecuted and him and his few followers were kicked out of Mecca and settled in Medina -- here the Muslims power built up as more people joined the faith.  Finally after a series of battles, the Muslims defeated the Meccan pagans and conquered the city.  Even though the inhabitants included people who persecuted the Muslims, not one person was hurt.  Such was the mercy taught in Islam.\n\nTHERES A LOT OF INFO. ON HIS LIFE. YOU SHOULD LOOK IT UP.  BUT LET ME GO ON.. SKIP EVERYTHING UNTIL HIS DEATH...\n\nHe died with his head in the lap of his most beloved wife, Aisha, saying "May Allah have mercy".  And he left this world.  After him, his companions gathered (excluding Ali, which is why there was contraversy later and a split occured -- Sunni vs. Shi'ite) and decided Abu Bakr should be the next leader.\n\nAbu Bakr stook up and amongst a confused, wailing and rebellious crowd gave a speech which was recorded as one of history's finest.  He said his famous words:  "He who worships Muhammad should be informed that Muhammad has died. He who worships Allah should know that Allah is ever-living and does not die."   Abu Bakr then recited the following verse of the Qur'an:  \n"Muhammad is no more than a Prophet: many were the Apostles that passed away before him. If he died or was slain, will ye then turn back your heels?" \n\nAnd so the Muslims lived on -- to this day, over a billion strong worldwide.\n\nThe followers of Jesus, Moses, David, other prophets, including the last one, Muhammad (PEACE BE UPON THEM ALL)\n\nAnd peace (salam) to you!\n\nGood luck on your paper.
