Eval­u­a­tion of Com­mon Mis­sion­ary Alle­ga­tions About The Per­son­al­i­ty of Muham­mad (P)

Recent­ly a South African Chris­t­ian mis­sion­ary by the name of ​“Gary” had been post­ing polem­i­cal snip­pets of untruth on his ​“web­site” about the char­ac­ter of the Prophet Muham­mad^(P), with total dis­re­gard for the answers from the Mus­lim side. Most of his mate­r­i­al is depen­dent the mis­sion­ary web­site Answer­ing Islam, of which he whol­ly cuts and pastes. Obvi­ous­ly this bank­rupt mis­sion­ary is unable to think for him­self apart from rely­ing on the obtuse mate­r­i­al from his rabid co-religionists.

We list out the alle­ga­tions that this mis­sion­ary has writ­ten, and we will respond to each and every state­ment that he has made, in defence of the Prophet Muham­mad^(P) and the reli­gion of Islam. This page will also be col­lect­ing links answer­ing the most com­mon alle­ga­tions hurled by the mis­sion­ar­ies and their allies.

What was Muhammad ?

Accord­ing to the missionary :

• Muham­mad mas­sa­cred his pris­on­ers of war indis­crim­i­nate­ly. He was a crim­i­nal and a mass mur­der­er. [Response]
• Muham­mad sent his men to kill his oppo­nents in the mid­dle of the night using deceit and lies. He was an assas­sin. [Response]
• Muham­mad raid­ed mer­chant car­a­vans and stole their goods. He was a high­way rob­ber. [Response]
• Muham­mad cap­tured human beings and sold them or asked for a pay­ment of a ran­som to release them. He was a slave mer­chant and a ter­ror­ist. [Response]
• Muham­mad, at the age of 53, became aroused by a 9‑year-old child. He was a pae­dophile. [Response]
• Muham­mad forced him­self on a cap­tured woman on the same day that he killed her father, hus­band and many of her rel­a­tives. He was a rapist. [Response]

Com­par­ing Muham­mad to Jesus ?

If one were to objec­tive­ly study the mis­sions of both Muham­mad and Jesus side-by-side, it would imme­di­ate­ly be con­clud­ed that Muham­mad is Jesus doing the work of rec­on­cil­i­a­tion in the sev­enth-cen­tu­ry Ara­bia of war­ring tribes while Jesus is Muham­mad doing the same work in the first-cen­tu­ry Pales­tine occu­pied by an over­whelm­ing­ly pow­er­ful Rome. See :

Vio­lence Is Not A Point For Char­ac­ter Assasination

The mis­sion­ary in ques­tion has also fond­ly point­ed out that the Muhammad(P) had waged wars in his life­time. We have nev­er denied that. But what about explain­ing his obvi­ous dou­ble stan­dards ? The read­er is adviced to fol­low the arti­cles chronog­i­cal­ly in order to grasp the demon­stra­tion of our point. See :

A Re-Eval­u­a­tion Of Muhammad

It is unfor­tu­nate that most of the crit­i­cisms direct­ed towards the Prophet(P) even until today shows that many of his crit­ics are still liv­ing in the past. This is evi­dent when we read :

Muham­mad & The Lies

Exon­er­a­tion of the Prophet from the alle­ga­tions of his crit­ics can be seen in :

Towards A Re-Eval­u­a­tion of Muham­mad : Prophet and Man

This arti­cle attempts to give an objec­tive view of the per­son­al­i­ty of the Prophet(P) and at the same time dis­cuss­es the vary­ing notions of the Prophet Muhammad’s(P) char­ac­ter as viewed by the Orientalists.

Con­clu­sions

It can be seen from our respons­es to these alle­ga­tions about the Prophet Muham­mad^(P) that the mis­sion­ar­ies cer­tain­ly have no excuse to attack the char­ac­ter of Muham­mad. Even his con­tem­po­rary mor­tal ene­mies were acknowl­edg­ing him as al-Amin, ​“The Trust­wor­thy”. To see these hos­tile big­otry com­ing from mis­sion­ar­ies who are still smart­ing from their defeat at the Cru­sades is hence laughable.

And cer­tain­ly, only God knows best !
