Jesus came to us to show us the way. So He Is the Way, Truth & Life. No one comes to the Father except through Jesus Christ the Lord.
Mohammad had a different message and his message directs me to deny my Savior & Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Living God.
Also Mohammads has a legalistic message with do's and don'ts (like bow to Mecca 5 times a day, etc.). Jesus made it simple. Love God and love others to fulfill all the law. Love is the root of God's law.
If I love God, I won't bow down toward Mecca to pray to god, because that would be putting another god before my God, who said that I can pray in spirit & truth anywhere and any time 24/7.

I think Jesus is because he cared for the sick, the handicapped, and poor people, he was always respectful of authority people such the Temple Guards (the local police), he wasn't afraid to stand up for people nor to defend his actions such as healing on the sabbath.
I don't think Mohammad is a good example because there are some "unsavory" elements to his life.

Hands down... Jesus Christ....
Jesus died for us all by freeing us from the penalty of sin and death, not that he had to, but that he loved us, so that we all might have victorious LIFE, both now and forever.
Mohammed did no such thing.

They were both good role models, and taught to love G-d----the one and only G-d. They were each men that had a message in his own time.

Judging by your avatar, I'm thinking you're looking for Muhammed votes. But Jesus came first. And the Jewish tradition was here before him. Course there was also the Mesopotamian pagans before that. Tell you what, I like Santa better. He gave me his list of all the bad girls. I owe him.

Both are equally good according to the culture that they were born in. Mohammed was good for Middle Easterners because of the junk Islam emerged from (jahiliyya). Jesus works for the time and era he was living in.

I think they are both good role models but I more often use Mohamad as a guide to my daily lifestyle because the accounts of him are (IMO) more accurate than Jesus'. As a Muslim though, we shouldn't make any distinction between the prophets and their true message. Peace and blessings.
