In his excellent new book "Did Muhammad Exist? An Inquiry into Islam's Obscure Origins," Robert Spencer has questioned the very existence of Prophet Muhammad. Robert bases his thesis of the non-existence of Muhammad on the following key reasons.

Quoting from Spencer:
"No record of Muhammad’s reported death in 632 appears until more than a century after that date.
The early accounts written by the people the Arabs conquered never mention Islam, Muhammad, or the Qur’an. They call the conquerors "Ishmaelites", "Saracens", "Muha- jirun", and "Hagarians", but never "Muslims".
The Arab conquerors, in their coins and inscriptions, don’t mention Islam or the Qur’an for the first six decades of their conquests. Mentions of “Muhammad” are non-specific and on at least two occasions are accompanied by a cross. The word can be used not only as a proper name but also as an honorific.
The Qur’an, even by the canonical Muslim account, was not distributed in its present form until the 650s. Contradicting that standard account is the fact that neither the Arabians nor the Christians and Jews in the region mention the Qur’an until the early eighth century.
During the reign of the caliph Muawiya (661–680), the Arabs constructed at least one public building whose inscription was headed by a cross – a symbol abhorrent to Islam.
The lack of confirming detail in the historical record, the late development of biographical material about the Islamic prophet, the atmosphere of political and religious factionalism in which that material developed, and much more suggest that the Muhammad of Islamic tradition did not exist, or if he did, he was substantially different from how that tradition portrays him.
One of the questions that must be addressed is why there is a "personality change" between the initial peaceful Mecca Surahs and later violent Surahs. If the entire Quran was cooked up after the fact, there wouldn’t be that difference – as it would all come from the same "pot"."
Throughout history, there have been many men who have pertained to be prophets of God possessing a special relationship with God including communicating with God or an intermediary. The fact that there would have been a man called Muhammad proclaiming to be a prophet around 610 AD claiming to be receiving divine teachings thru Angel Gabriel would not have been unusual.
We know that Islam is divided into 2 phases; the initial Mecca phase where Muhammad preaches peace and tolerance and the Medina phase in which the Quran becomes a violent, military manual of death and destruction bent on conquering the world for Allah, subjugating its peoples and destroying all other religions.
It is important to understand that Islam without the initial Meccan peaceful teachings would have gone to oblivion. Without the cover provided by these early teachings, Islam would have lacked any religious creditability masking the Medina call to conquest.
Prophet Muhammad was born around 570 AD in Mecca. He belonged to the Quraysh tribe of Mecca. Muhammad became a trader who married an older, rich woman. One day in 610, he claims to have met the angel Gabriel in a cave on Mount Hira. Gabriel transmits teachings from God to Muhammad. For the next 13 years, Muhammad labors as a preacher trying to convince the Jews, Christians that his God – Allah is the same God as worshipped by them and convince them and the pagan Arabs to join his new religion Islam and become Muslims. After 13 years, with his wife dead and no success in Mecca, Muhammad departs Mecca for Medina with a small band of believers where he dies. After his death, his followers collected the revelations Muhammad claimed to have received from Gabriel into the Quran. Muhammad, Islam, Allah and the Quran go to historical oblivion.
Muhammad would have disappeared from history if it had not been for the leaders of the Arab empire who near the end of the 7th century needed a religious ideology to unify the empire.
Quoting Spencer:
“Historical records make clear that toward the end of the seventh century and the beginning of the eighth, the Umayyad leaders of the Arab domains began to speak much more specifically than anyone had before about Islam, its prophet, and eventually its book. Muhammad, if he did not exist, or if his actual deeds were not known, would certainly have been politically useful to the new Arab Empire as a legendary hero. The empire was growing quickly, soon rivaling the Byzantine and Persian Empires in size and power. It needed a common religion—a political theology that would provide the foundation for the empire’s unity and would secure allegiance to the state.”
These leaders discovered that hundreds of years before there had been a preacher born in Mecca who had preached a new religion called Islam, followers were called Muslims of a God called Allah and had a book recording this new religion’s teachings. In short, they had a pre-packaged religion and their necessary “legendary hero” upon which to build the mythology of their warrior prophet.
At this point, they turned the Quran and Islam into a military ideology with their God – Allah rewarding his followers with a virgin delight Paradise for those who killed kafirs or were slain in the attempt, as many sex slaves as they could conquer, women as their property and 80% of the booty from the conquered territories. To finance the conquests, a special tax was imposed on the Jews and Christians and later the Hindus.
These new teachings were incorporated into the original peaceful Quran and the original peace teachings were cleverly utilized to give Islam its religious cloak to deceive the kafirs while the Muslim armies planned their military demise. Of course, the new Quran’s teachings abrogated Muhammad’s original Quran.
If this is so, then Prophet Muhammad was a good man who never killed, raped, terrorized, tortured anyone but tried to make a difference to his community. Prophet Muhammad after his death would have joined Gabriel in heaven.
The Muslim men followers of this new Islam created by these evil leaders upon their death would not ascend to any paradise filled with virgins but descended into hell to join not only these evil Islamic conquerors but all the other killers of history: Hitler, Stalin, Mao, etc who sold their souls for power.
A WAY OUT
The bastardization of the original Quran and the creation of a monster from Prophet Muhammad life by these men of evil gives Muslim men a way out of the Islamic nightmare that now perils mankind. Muslim men could rise up and renounce these pretenders, denounce their warrior prophet fabrication and embrace Prophet Muhammad and his teachings. Unfortunately this is not going to happen.
Muslim men will never give up the benefits granted to them by these later teachings made up by these Islamic conquerors. Their women and children are their property, unlimited sex with sex slaves, child brides, unlimited booty, unlimited political power and unlimited eternal sex.
So tonight, Prophet Muhammad is in heaven to be joined by all Muslim women who having been brain washed and mentally and physically abused from their birth deserve external solace while all their sons, brothers, fathers, husbands having been born with free will have chosen to follow evil condemning their souls for all eternity.
Unmistakably historical, however, are the Arab conquests and the empire they founded. Every empire of the day was anchored in a political theology. The Eastern Roman Empire was Christian; the Persian Empire was Zoroastrian. The realm of political theology offers the most plausible explanation for the creation of Islam, Muhammad, and the Quran. The Arab Empire controlled and needed to unify its huge expanses of territory, where different religions predominated. Islam began as an umbrella monotheistic movement that presented itself as encompassing the true forms of the two great previous monotheistic movements, Judaism and Christianity.
Whatever be the truth about his existence, Muhammad, as presented in his actions outlined in the Quran, Hadiths, and Sira, was one of the most diabolically evil persons in history. Such an evil incarnate can never be a representative of the supreme creator of the Universe. Even if one claims that Muhammad was thoroughly bastardised by his later followers, it is impossible that a true prophet of the omnipotent God could be so badly bastardised by earthly man to the point of making him the most evil ever. So, Muhammad was never a prophet of God, period!

The historical Koran reveals the primary division of the text. The early Koran written in Mecca is very different from the later Koran written in Medina. The early Koran is more religious and poetic. The later Koran is more historical and political. There is a radical change in its tone, subject and language in the two texts. The difference is even clear to a first-time reader. There is a Meccan Koran and a Medinan Koran. The relative sizes of the two Korans are: Meccan Koran is about 64% of the total Koran; the Medinan Koran is 36% of the total .
Not only are there two Korans, Meccan and Medinan, that are different in tone and subject matter, but also the Koran has many verses that contradict each other.
One of the biggest examples of ethical dualism in Islam is the Jews. The Meccan Koran is filled with stories about Moses, Noah, Adam, and other Jewish figures. The early Koran is very Jewish. The perception of the Jews completely changes in Medina. Every verse, story, and hadith is negative and anti-Jew.
Jihad
Jihad must be one of the most famous Islamic concepts. It takes up a large portion of the Trilogy. Material for jihad is 24% of the Medinan Koran and 9% of the total of the entire Koran. Jihad takes up 21% of the Bukhari material and the Sira devotes 67% of its text to jihad.
Amount of Trilogy Text Devoted to Jihad
Meccan Quran 0%
Medinan Quran 24%

We must consider that both christianity and islam were still different by this time and very much of islam is influenced by the hadith. There are also some scholars suggesting that zoroastrism influenced islam from persia. Anyway, islam became a political ideology much later when the rulers were in need for it in order to provide a legitimation for their rulership.

If this is so, then Prophet Muhammad was a good man who never killed, raped, terrorized, tortured anyone but tried to make a difference to his community. Having lived an exemplary life Prophet Muhammad after his death would have joined Gabriel in heaven.There is nothing in Muhammad's Meccan life and quranic verses that is exemplary or worth emulating. Indeed, average persons of Mecca in his life-time lived a more sober, and peaceful life. And sex with slave-girls was sanctioned in Meccan verse (4:3) itself.

There are only 3 possibilities concerning Muhammad.
1.He never existed. Islam, Muhammad, Quran were manufactured by these late 7th century Islamic rulers as mentioned by Spencer.
2, He existed and all Quranic teachings were from him. The Quran was the creation of this Muhammad.
3. He existed as a failed preacher who created a religion Islam, God – Allah and initial Quran. Tried in his early teachings to convince Jews/Christians/pagans of his prophetship with his early peaceful teachings and went to historical oblivion until these 7th century rulers grabbed onto his Islam, Allah, Quran and changed it into a military manual of conquest. All teachings of Muhammad leading armies into battle etc were fabricated later by the late 7th century rulers. Verse 4.3 would have been part of that fabrication mentioned by Spencer.
Verse 4:3 was revealed to Prophet Muhammad in Madina after he migrated to it from Mecca and established an Islamic state there right after the battle of Uhud in which the Muslims not only had lost badly against the Pagans.
i think this is what author meant. Not the entire Meccan Quran part of which was bastardization but only those peaceful teachings of this failed preacher Muhammad.

I think Surah 4 is a Medina surah.
The Mecca Surahs (23: 5-6) and (70: 29-30) are sanctioning sex with female slaves/captives (even more clear than surah 4:3)
proving that the 'Meccan Muhammad', to our current standards, is indeed a man of shabby morals.
written by Gnostic , June 03, 2012
Some texts even supposed to come from Mecca aree very closely related to already existing texts from bible, apokrypha. talmud and maybe other sources. For example, THE CAVE (Surah 18) quite obviously derived from christian sources such as the Legend of the Seven Sleepers and The Alexander Romance. Muhammad did not invent these stories, they were already existing before and somebody wrote them down. And there is not (only) Muhammad behind it but other people as well, maybe even some jewish or christian scholars as some sources suggest.
Whatever happened during early islamic history, it was quite different from what the islamic tradition is telling us. Perhaps Muhammad was not so important during his lifetime but later, he was raised to heaven by the muslim rulers who were in need for such a hero.

The transition of the Quran's messages -- from non-violent in Mecca to violent and aggressive in Medina -- falls in quite line logically with a likely historical reality. It's all about power equation.
We are told that Muhammad produced verse 4:3 when Khadijah was still alive in Mecca. And before moving to Medina, Muhammad was married to Sauda and to Aisha, waiting to be consummated, although thighing was going on. Given polygamy was common in Arab society and slave-girls were used as sex-partners, and Muhammad's teachings not so extraordinarily radical from Arab traditions, except talking about a singular God (with paganic tinge), nothing new either --- verse 4:3 is no at all unexpected of being produced in Mecca.

Thats why I would say that early islam was not so far away from christianity but many embraced islam because of lower taxes. Islam was constituted and institutionalised much later when the law schools were establisehd and the hadith invented. I do not know exactly but I think this happend under perisan influence because christianity did always separate between relgion and law as well as rulership.

Perhaps Muhammad "revealed" some early texts from Mecca but others were probably written down by others. The quran looks much more like a collection which was compiled in a hurry when Muhammad was already dead and raised to heaven by his followers..

Some was lifted from Greek Orthodox bibles.
Politics and religion were inseparable in all early religions.muslims are the only cult that still uses the g-d/politics system.The rest of the world understands the abuse of power created by uniting the 2 and the inequality it breeds.
If there was a person named muhammad whom g-d talked to it would have been huge news.No matter if he was thought to be genuine or a false prophet,there would be records of him.False prophets were publicly executed ."Real" prophets were well respected and documented .
If g-d had sent a last prophet to earth ,he wouldn't have kept it a secret.Especially from his "chosen people ."
Insane asylums have housed millions of prophets,Jesus' and g-ds throughout history.
The quran and hadiths were copied from memories ,notes on leaves,tree bark and rocks .To claim they are accurate and complete requires you to believe human memories are perfect,leaves/bark/rocks are never damaged/destroyed/altered or lost.Not a single word was ever written by muhammad or his immediate family.
muslims claim muhammad was the perfect man.Yet he lacked the basic communication skills to record messages from a g-d no one heard or saw.He lacked the ability to control his violent nature,greed and jealousy .He did not understand the basic human rights,respect or compromise .

Islamic law means that anybody can claim anything in the name of god. He can even rule to kill people only because they disagree with ones view on islam. This kind of law is the worst one people can imagine: Chaos, disorder and killings are everydays life in muslim countries.

I am sorry it has nothing to do with article except it is being about Islam.
Quran claims, in so many places, like [ 43/11 - 32/27 and many others ] that the land where Muhammad lived, is,was and will be a desert, lacked water for all times until Allah who brings rain to quenched it's thirst .[BTW …snow was not mentioned not even once in Quran even it covers vast portion of lands ]
But the fake Quran [ as it never came from any God] and who ever wrote it, did not know about the fact that the exact region of the where Muhammad lived once being a TROPICAL CLIMATE with more water then any, would need or want from it's abundance .
To me, this is another nail in the coffin of Islam … may be people have known that … but truthfully I did not think about it before and when Iread it, I just laugh at Muhammad and his ignorance and his limited perceptions.
Muhammad the idiot and the idiots who wrote Quran after him [ I believe he did exist but the non exists charge has good reasoning ] …. did not know his land was once a lush heaven with all kind trees and flowing waters just like [ Janat al naeem ] and because he did not know what happen to earth, before the sixty years he lived on it, or not even the years after Muhammad death, it took to complete the book of death, Quran, he only talked about the time when earth became a desert … hahahahaha
I think the word ignorance is not enough word to describe the stupid things in Quran.

At that stage I certainly knew very little, but what I knew was enough to toss the "religion" of Islam out onto the garbage heap where it belongs. Of course the behavior of Muslim I knew by then also did not help allahs cause.
So Muslims hold on to a man-made concept of a deity, a teaching which turns humans after "death" into some kind of zombies especially Unbelievers experiencing the punishment of the grave... There might be worse fairy-tales being told, but none of them claimed to be the divine revelation given by a stoned-gawd whoreshipped 5 times a day - BTW do Muslims know that they stick their rear-end toward mecca? While their face is looking in its direction, the rear-end..... SMACK ON at Mecca! What foolish behavior Muslims are forced to adhere to. Any deity knowing this would not have demanded such a quibla or whatever this is called.

You talked about the one of the cruelest Ayas in Quran ... it is one of the most, that makes me sick, [aside from all the other sadistic Surahs that most readers here are familiar with ] ...
Another is Surit al Muhammad /47/15 ...in the end of this Surah, it says '' ....[ talking about the people of paradise] are they compared to those who shell live for ever in Fire and to be given scorching, boiling water to drink so that IT CUTS UP THEIR INTESTINES [ COMES AS STOMACHS] [TO PIECES ]
In what kind of mind would think it is normal for a God who call IT self merciful [lol] would want to make people drink boiling water to cut up their insides to peaces ...I means pieces .... sad really .. sad
Only in mind of the sick demented sadistic people ... Muslims who think it is justified ...
no crime ever deserves such torture ... Muhammad him self should have been put through that kind of torture

"'A'isha and Abdullah reported: As the Messenger of Allah (may peace be upon him) was about to breathe his last, he drew his sheet upon his face and when he felt uneasy, he uncovered his face and said in that very state: Let there be curse upon the Jews and the Christians that they have taken the graves of their apostles as places of worship. He in fact warned (his men) against what they (the Jews and the Christians) did." -- Sahih Muslim 1082
Except that the Jews and Christians didn't use graves - of anyone - as places of worship. MooHamMAD was wrong! But the Muslim contempt and hatred for Jews and Christians remains.
Islam follows the bloody human sacrifices of the Aztecs and other primitive peoples by dedicating the blood, guts and gore of the victims to a bloodthirsty and vengeful tribal warrior God.
As with many primitive peoples, it is the shedding of blood that gets them excited. The blood is seen as a libation to Allah. To quote the eminent Islamic theologian Abu Hamza al-Masri: "There is no liquid loved by Allah more than the liquid of blood" "Whether you do it by the lamb, or you do it by a Serb, or you do it by a Jew, or you do it by any enemies of Allah," he said. That drop of blood "is very dear."

A coin struck by the first Arabian conquerers between 647 and 658 does bear the inscription muhammad – but this is a figure carrying a cross! – which certainly does not jibe with Islam as we know it.
The first attempt to record stories about Muhammad (“hadiths”) did not begin until the 8th century, under the 5th Umayyad caliph, Abd al-Malik; this project continued on into the 9th century, when the first biography of Muhammad was authored by Ibn Ishaq. All subsequent biographies have been based on Ibn Ishaq’s very late-appearing work.
Ibn Ishaq’s biography goes into great detail about the birth, childhood, adulthood, marriage, visions, raiding campaigns, marriages, etc, but also is peculiarly replete with miracles attributed to Muhammad. This is peculiar because the Qur’an (29:51) asserts that Muhammad did not perform miracles, because the Qur’an itself was a sufficient miracle to convince believers.

As I've said before, Spencer has never lost a debate to any muslim scumbag, and in fact, the scum have been instructed not to debate him as he shows them up as the fools they are. Hadith is as much of islam as the koran, just because you don't think it's right ,doesn't make it so.

Without the original Bible story, we would not know that it was Joseph's father who sent Joseph to check up on his brother's; possibly suspecting they were up to no good. Joseph finds them in Dothan, a Canaanite town, probably painting the town red (temple prostitution was common among the Canaanites) instead of taking care of the family sheep herd. The errant brothers decide to kill Joseph (except for Reuben, who planned to rescue him) by throwing him in a pit so he couldn't tell on them to their father, Jacob; but, instead, one of the brothers - Judah - talks them into selling him for 20 pieces of silver to a passing caravan of Midianites who were heading down to Egypt with their camels bearing spices and myrrh. Then the brothers kill a baby goat and put the blood on Joseph's coat to show to their father. (Gen. Ch 37-47)
The Biblical story not only contains information that directly relates to future events, it also speaks directly to the very human condition of doing things we know are wrong, and then doing even worse things to cover up our trangression.
The Qur'an version, on the other hand, has Joseph's brothers committing cold-blooded, pre-meditated murder out of jealousy - and then justifies murder, even of one's relatives. This is a Cain murdering Abel situation, and entirely without consequences! No hellfire and damnation from Muhammad's god. No threats of punishment in this life - and then in the hereafter as well!! Nothing. NADA. Not a word. Not at all like what Muhammad's stone-gawd promises will happen to apostates, hypocrites, adulterers, and anyone who doesn't prostrate to his royal stone-gawdness 5 times a day!
The story of Mariam (Maria) is likewise an invented, distorted, contrived concoction that bears NO resemblance to the Biblical story -- What-So-Ever.
And, as for Lugman (Lokman) Surah 31, he only exists in the Quran in a few lines: WE (Al-'Aliy, the Sublime and Al-Kabir, the Great) bestowed wisdom on Lugman...We said "Give thanks to ME and to your parents...But MY word shall be fulfilled: "I will surely fill Hell with jinn and humans all." Q.31:13 WhoopTeeDoo!!
