Muhammad of the Qoraish tribe of Saudi Arabia was born in 571 A.D. but his father, Abdullah, died 4 months before he was born. Infant Muhammad and his widowed mother, Amina were looked after by her father, Abdul Mutalib. During this time, Halima, a Bedouin lady, nursed infant Muhammad. After a few weeks, she complained infant Muhammad was possessed by the devil and refused him. His mother Amina then died, when he was only 5 years old. When orphaned Muhammad was 8, his grandfather, Abdul Mutalib also died, and the boy Muhammad was passed on to his uncle, Abu Talib, who had a trading caravan business with Syria. At age 20, Abu Talib handed Muhammad over to work for Khadija, who had a thriving caravan business. At age 25, Muhammad married his boss, 40-year-old rich widow Khadija, and thereby became stepfather of Khadija’s two daughters from a previous marriage. Muhammad did not show ‘his true colours’ while he was married to Khadija. But after she died, Muhammad was ‘let loose’ with enormous wealth and went on to have 9 wives, dozens of concubines, numerous temporary wives, and over a hundred male/female slaves. He was also betrothed to 6-year-old Aisha, and married her at age 9 (8 by our calendar). He took to sexual fondness of his daughter-in-law when he saw her changing her clothes and married her – the initially wife of his adopted son, Zaid. Once when he was caught red-handed raping his wife (Sadiah’s) slave (Mary), out of wedlock, he reprimanded Sadiah for ‘making a big thing out of it.’ Muhammad and his companions frequently raided unsuspecting villages, (even those who had peace treaties with him) decapitating the men, and taking their wives, sons/daughters as slaves, ‘the best always for himself’ according to the Quran. In Sahih Bukhari’s Hadith, when some thieves were caught, Muhammad ordered his companions to dig out both eyes of each thief, and sent them away, blind and bleeding. Out of the 68 wars Muhammad and his companions fought, only one was defensive and the remaining 67 were offensive wars initiated by Muhammad and his companions.

I am not a Muslim but I have done some studying of the life of Muhammad, (I am by no means an expert) and I have never heard of many of the things you claim.
I recommend that you stick with the sources recognized by most Muslims as authentic. They are incriminating enough.
Muslims do not dispute Muhammad's multiple wives, including 9-year-old Aisha and his daughter-in-law (who was married to his adopted son when Muhammad had a "revelation" that Allah had given her to him, thus no divorce or re-marriage was necessary since "Allah had already decided it" To justify the marriage, Muhammad declared that the entire concept of adoption was null and void; therefore, adoption is not legal in many Islamic countries.).
Muslims do not dispute Muhammad's many offensive battles, including a ten-year siege on trade-dependent Mecca where he raided their trade caravans, killed the traders, and stole their stuff, keeping one sixth of the booty for himself and distributing five sixths among his men.
Muslims do not dispute the exile of an entire Jewish tribe from Medina because Muhammad had a "revelation" that their leader was out to get him. They do not dispute the "Battle of the Trench" when the leader of the other Jewish tribe, after seeing how quickly the first tribe had been driven out, decided not to fight on either side when the Meccans attacked, so to punish them, all the men in the second Jewish tribe were decapitated and their bodies thrown in the trench, while the women and children were sold for ransom to the previously exiled Jewish tribe.
But I never heard of many of the details you included -- rapes, multiple concubines and temporary wives, being possessed as a baby, etc. and I expect Muslims will claim your unnamed source is biased or made-up. I see many are saying it is lies. Is it really necessary to use biased sources? Even the most acclaimed Muslim sources are incriminating enough.
Muslim sources say Christians lived in Mecca, and that Medina was predominantly Jewish, until Muhammad came. Where are they now?
Muslimah, as a convert to Islam I hope you have read about the life of Muhammad, especially since you refused to read the question.

The information below is true, the rest is complete rubbish, where did you get your information from?
The Prophet Mohammed was born in the Arabian city of Mecca, roughly 570 years after the birth of another famous prophet, Jesus. Abdullah, his father, had died several weeks before his birth, followed by the death of his mother Aminah around the age of six. The grandfather who had stepped in as Mohammed's father died shortly after.
He was taken in by his uncle Abu-Talib, whom the young Mohammed began to assist as a shepherd, caravanner and shopkeeper. At the age of 25, Mohammed married Khadijah, a rich widow, his senior and his employer. Together they had six children but his two sons died young. His profession as trader brought him into contact with many different groups - Jews, Christians, Chinese, Hindus and so on. He also became active in a charitable brotherhood organised by another uncle.
In AD 605, the Kaaba at Mecca was assaulted first by fire, then by torrential rain. Mohammed participated in its rebuilding, setting in place a black stone in one of its walls and prompting the tradition of circumambulation1 that occurs every year during the hadj, or pilgrimage. After this episode, he spent a good deal of time in spiritual study.

It is a shameful assault on a Religion and a Prophet. The only purpose seems to be create hatred among the people about this religion and the Prophet. It looks clearly a part of Anti-Islamic pro-active Western media's who is afraid of the teachings of this Religion and True life of Prophet Mohammad (May peace be upon him). Otherwise, in this world of infotech, all true informations are available on internet and there is need to put such rubbish things here. The only purpose is to malign Islam and its followers for creataion of hatred.

You mean *insert shocked gasp here* he wasn't perfect? Are you seriously trying to tell me that although he was flawed in many ways, God/Allah chose to use him in such a way that millions of people would follow Allah and become a better, peace-loving people through his words?
Gee, perhaps we could all learn a bit from that eh?

it quite is written in Sunan Abu-Dawud e book 38, variety 4390 Eyewitness-checklist Trenches have been dug in the bazaar of Madinah and numerous Jews between six and 9 hundred have been beheaded therein. Huyai, Ibn Akhtab, the govt of the Bani Nadeer and Safiyah’s father replaced into captured in this siege and delivered to the Prophet together with his palms tied to his neck with a rope. In an audacious defiance he rejected Muhammad and favorite to be beheaded than submitting to his faith by stress. He replaced into ordered to take a seat down and replaced into beheaded instantaneous. to cut up adult males from the lads, the childrens have been examined and if that they had grown any pubic hair, it replaced into sufficient to behead them. Sunan Abu-Dawud e book 38, variety 4390 Narrated Atiyyah al-Qurazi: i replaced into between the captives of Banu Qurayzah. They (the companions) examined us, and people who had started to advance hair (pubes) have been killed, and people who had no longer weren't killed. i replaced into between people who had no longer grown hair. The Muslims historians have been speedy to hold the comparable baseless alibis to justify their raids against their sufferers like, they have been "mischievous", inflicting "sedition" or being "treacherous" and "harboring against Islam". inspite of the undeniable fact that no specifics exists as of the character of those sins to warrant this form of sever punishment and their finished genocide.
