I won't tell what I think because I am Muslim but I will tell you what others think (non-Muslim):\n\n\nENCYCLOPEDIA BRITANNICA confirms: \n“.... A mass of detail in the early sources show that he was an honest and upright man who had gained the respect and loyalty of others who were like-wise honest and upright men." (Vol. 12) \n\nMICHAEL H. HART in his recently published book on ratings of men who contributed towards the benefit and uplifting of mankind writes: \n"My choice of Muhammad (pbuh) to lead the list of the world's most influential persons may surprise some readers and may be questioned by others, but he was the only man in history who was supremely successful on both the religious and secular levels." (M.H. Hart, THE 100: A RANKING OF THE MOST INFLUENTIAL PERSONS IN HISTORY, New York, 1978, p. 33) \n\nGEORGE BERNARD SHAW said about him: \n"He must be called the Savior of Humanity. I believe that if a man like him were to assume the dictatorship of the modern world, he would succeed in solving its problems in a way that would bring it much needed peace and happiness." (THE GENUINE ISLAM, Singapore, Vol. 1, No. 8, 1936) \nHe was by far the most remarkable man that ever set foot on this earth. He preached a religion, founded a state, built a nation, laid down a moral code, initiated numerous social and political reforms, established a powerful and dynamic society to practice and represent his teachings and completely revolutionized the worlds of human thought and behavior for all times to come. \n\n"HIS NAME IS MUHAMMAD"- May Allah’s peace be upon him (PBUH) \nHe was born in Arabia in the year 570 C.E. (common era), started his mission of preaching the religion of Truth, which is Islam (submission to One God), at the age of forty and departed from this world at the age of sixty-three. \nDuring the short period of 23 years of his prophethood, he changed the complete Arabian peninsula from paganism and idolatry to worship of One God, from tribal quarrels and wars to national solidarity and cohesion, from drunkenness and debauchery to sobriety and piety, from lawlessness and anarchy to disciplined living, from utter bankruptcy to the highest standards of moral excellence. Human history has never known such a complete transformation of a people or a place before or since - and IMAGINE all these unbelievable wonders in JUST OVER TWO DECADES. \n\nLAMARTINE, the renowned historian speaking on the essentials of human greatness wonders: "If greatness of purpose, smallness of means and astounding results are the three criteria of human genius, who could dare to compare any great man in modern history with Muhammad (pbuh)? The most famous men created arms, laws and empires only. They founded, if anything at all, no more than material powers which often crumbled away before their eyes. This man moved not only armies, legislation, empires, peoples and dynasties, but millions of men in one-third of the then inhabited world; and more than that, he changed the altars, the gods, the religions, the ideas, the beliefs and souls.... his forbearance in victory, his ambition, which was entirely devoted to one idea and in no manner striving for an empire; his endless prayers, his mystic conversations with God, his death and his triumph after death; all these attest not to an imposture but to a firm conviction which gave him the power to restore a dogma. This dogma was two-fold, the unity of God and the immateriality of God; the former telling what God is, the latter telling what God is not; the one overthrowing false gods with the sword, the other starting an idea with the words. \n\n"Philosopher, orator, apostle, legislator, warrior, conqueror of ideas, restorer of rational dogmas, of a cult without images, the founder of twenty terrestrial empires and of one spiritual empire, that is MUHAMMAD (pbuh). As regards all the standards by which Human Greatness may be measured, we may well a

Even dead for almost one and a half millenia, the prophet Muhammad ibn Abdullah (founder of Islam) is the most politically influential and respected Muslim today. His sayings and advice on how to live life, even independent of what the Angel Gabriel is supposed to have relayed through him into the Koran directly, are respected enough to be considered law in Muslim states, and as a substantial fraction of the Islamic religion, Muhammad's contributions are quite influential in all states of the world.

First of all, everyone should be quite precise and not insulting in answering this question....Allah is the name for God in The Islamic Religion. Mohammed was the first prophet, who was visited by angel Gabriel and he told him about the "Qu'ran" :the teachings and tenets of being a muslim. Later on Mohhammed married a rich widow and that helped to communicate the word. When he fled from Mecca "the sacred city", the holy words began to influence the people....and teach them about the "5 Pillars of Islam" and the tenets. When Mohammed died, Ali took his place and continued to preach the word. Later on there were three major sects: The Sunni, Sufi and Sh'ite: they had major differences about "Orthopraxy" and "Orthodoxy".....Oh and no, i dont think Allah knew about the future.

The most (In)famous is Amhadinejad!!!\n\nHe's one of the biggest actors i have ever seen. He should get involved in a remake or in the arabic version of Dr. Zivago. I find that movie really appropriate. What a pity he'll end up by producing THE DAY AFTER instead!!

as far as i know , he is a fine man ..i think leaders of muslim countries should follow his steps regarding turning their countries into non religious ones (religion is in the heart and mind of persons not countries)

Tell us a bit more about him.  Is he a prophet or a religious leader?  Is he the author of a religious book?\nThanks for the added info.  No, I can't say the name rings a bell.  Sorry and good luck.

VERY fair...dead he would be a martyr for islam. He would have been honored as a hero, instead of the TRUE heroes of 9-11 and the war on terror. Now he gets to sit in SHAME for the rest of his life. That is if he doesnt "sacrifice" himself first....one can only pray. =)

yeah....he did. he heard the idhan(the call to prayer)for muslims. not sure if he became muslim or not. but i dont think he was taken out of books for that...that would be terrible if that happened to him. why wouldnt he still be considered an american hero? that seems a little extreme.
