That's a good question, considering the politics of the countries currently governed by Islamic regimes. Islam is very demanding and absolute in its laws, and its also very against associating with those outside of Islam's dictates. That often keeps believers from learning about anything outside the teachings of the Imans associated with governing. In many Islamic nations, converting from Islam to any other religion is punishable by death.
When Muhammad first went to Mecca, the people rejected his religion, so he later returned to conquer Mecca. Followers were often converted by force. In my personal view, faith is something that cannot be forced, so yes, I believe he used Islam as a political tool to build armies and gain power.

Muhammad replaced into working in direction of the religion of pop Abraham the buddy of God it relatively is abstaining from associating companions with God and being submissive to Him on my own . He in spite of the shown fact that did no longer invent islam yet islam as a faith existed a protracted time in the past he replaced into born, somewhat islam replaced into perfected in the process the existence time of Mohammed see qur'an 5:3. all prophets in the past Mohammed have been Muslims all of them surrendered to God in accordance to God's regulations and coaching as such their faith replaced into islam meaning finished and total submission to the choose of God.

Islam was always here started at the time of Adam and Eve. Tawheed (one God) was in the heart of the followers of Moses Jesus, David and Muhammad peace and blessing on them all.
The Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) spread peace and harmony, from him was the Quran revealed.
I suggest you study Islam, your lack of knowledge is scaring me. Its like your making your own religion up?

lol, i only can laugh at it.
seems like you are unaware that Muhammed-pbuh was the son and nephew of the Leader of Qureysh tribe, so he was already a sucessor. and people of Arabia and neighboring countries knew him as AL-AMIN and AL-AZIZ (the trustworthy and the loved) -- for his utter loyalty and goodness.
when the pagans of Makkah came to him via his uncle, offering wealth and leadership in exchange to leave the teachings of ONE GOD, Muhammed-pbuh said
"O Uncle! if they give the sun in my right hand and moon in my left and throw all the wealth under my feet, i will not deter from the path of preaching God's message, until Allah asks me to or i die in the process."
please get to know more about this man.

Agree with Marissa.
If that is what He(pbuh) wanted He would've already begged the title of an Emperor rather He(pbuh) chose to call himself a Servant of Allah and accumulated absoutely no earthly wealth for himself. He slept on a leather carpet on the floor rather than a cosy mattress.

Before posting questions like this , I advise you to read well.
Muhammad could have never invented Islam or Quran..
Islam is very much deep religion , it has controls and justification to everything, Islam provides answer to all harsh questions one could have on purpose of life, reality of God ....etc.
The prophecies made in Quraan , have all come true with all detail es so far.
Also the scientific miracles in the Quraan also prove that it could be nothing but word of God.

I think so.
He was always an ambitious man that's why he married a wealthy widow.
He was peaceful when he had no power but after he got power the only thing he wanted was more power.
Power corrupts.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

Our Prophet(PBUH) was a man of humbleness, mercy and forgiveness. He (PBUH) was in poverty. He barely kept anything without giving it away in charity. He lived a simple lifestyle with little of this world. How much do you know about Islam, Muslims and Muhammad(PBUH)?
Is it possible that you hate Muslims and Islam? Seems so because in every question you post, you curse us and or make an ignorant statement.

He was stoned and spat at for what he was saying (like most of the Prophets). His followers were killed, and he lived a life of poverty. Does this sound like a man who just wanted power?
