All of them.......I'd ask them to name the main principle or principles of their teachings and ask questions about those principles so that I could have as much understanding as possible.
Peace, Love, and Blessings

I would love to speak to any of those great people, and I don't think I could decide which one to speak to.
To Jesus I would ask, "Do you love me? I know I'm very flawed, but can I live with you anyway?"
To Mohammed I would say something nice like "Thank-you for being such a courageous person," and I would ask, "How do you feel now, friend? Has anything changed for you?"
To Buddha I would ask something similar to what I asked Mohammed.
To Confucius I would ask, "So what do you beleive?" (I never did get around to finding out.... well, I haven't yet, anyway...)
To Abraham I would ask, "How are you Father? I'm so very glad to meet you."
Ahhh... Thanks for letting me imagine.

Jesus - I would ask about the reason for the choices of messengers he had. I would also ask him what processes occurred to cause Mohammed, Buddha and Confucious to develope their belief systems.... that only scratches the surface.
Jesus is the creator of all, so the "why" is obvious to me.
blessings :)

Buddha.
Abraham has nothing to say. Even if you believe he was the patriarch of the jews, he was still just a primitive tribesman who was willing to murder his son to appease god.
Jesus and Muhammad were both too taken with their prophecy to be worth talking to, although at least Jesus wasn't as wordy as Muhammad.
Confucius was a bureaucrat. Possibly the consummate bureaucrat who turned Chinese bureaucracy into a religion, but still a bureaucrat.
That leave Buddha.

I would ask any of them why the writers of there words did not put in the part about everyone being divine except to the one called Buddha of course. ~ : )

The Buddha. I would ask what was it that made him restless and uncertain to give up so much. And Id ask because It has always puzzled me.

Jesus. The Mohammad over for dessert. Maybe Tolkien could stop by for tea sometime, as well.

I would like to meet Jesus.
I would like to know why God's plan was executed the way it was because it sure is a hard way to go.
Its worth it but still hard.

Muhammad...I'd ask him what I can do to be better person, and ask him what he thinks about the current condition of Muslim Women in terms of our rights and violence agiant Muslim Women at the hands of Muslim Men. .
