Quran 4:59 "O ye who believe! Obey Allah, and obey the Messenger" http://www.usc.edu/dept/msa/quran/004.qm...
Under Islam, Muhammad must be a deity because only deties could deserve obedience equal to that of God.
The Quran could have said "Obey Allah only. You can seek Allah by his revelations made through Muhammad", but it didnt. The Quan instead says "obey Allah AND Muhammd".
According to the Quran, Muhammad must be a God. Period.

Muhammad(SAW) was a Prophet or Messenger of God (Allah) he was human like us, he was appointed as a messenger to preach and guided mankind to the right path through the religion known as Islam and hif followers called Muslim....and this goes with the others Prophets to name some Noah, Moses ,Solomon and this including Jesus (Isa Ibni Mariam) which his followers claimed the son's of god ( Nauzubillah min zalik)..which actually save by god and brought to heaven and will come back to this world before the end of the world to save the MUSLIM againts the infidel..

The ayah is so clear Allah and his messenger,so Prophet Mohamed isn't God, since it came in the Quran which is Allah's word so we obey Allah and his messenger

Did you ever hear the Adhaan (Call For Prayer In Islam)...??? No? then you must know what is the Decleration of Faith In Islam... "There`s No God But Allah. Muhammed (P.B.U.H) Is The Prophet Of Allah."

I am not a muslim, but an atheist.
From what I understand of islam, Muhammad is the messenger of god, a prophet, and not Allah.
It is christianity that converts Jesus into a god, as of the first council of Nicea circa 323AD, which deified Jesus.

The shahadah, the "testament" to becoming a Muslim, is: "I testify that there is no God but Allah, and that Muhammed is the prophet of God."

He was considered a prophet. Anyone can claim to be god, and some people claim to be Christ, thus steering vulnerable people away from the one and only true God.

"There is only one God, and Muhammad is his Prophet." The declaration of which is one of the five pillars of Islam.
Where in the Qu'ran does it say that only a deity must be obeyed? That is the principal weakness in your argument.

Dude, even radical extremist mustlims are going to see that as faulty logic. The Quran did not say muhammed was a god, it said he was a prophet.

He has never claimed to be a god. He has given himself a very high position (just next to god) though

Well some say he was a false prophet.. if this is the case would he not want total obedience from the people he wanted to control thus put himself on the same level as God..
