They have continually striven to turn this man [Mohammed] into an imaginary superhuman being, a sort of God in human clothes, and have generally ignored the ample evidence of his humanity. They have been ready… to present these fantasies as miracles. Reference: Ali Dashti, "Twenty Three Years: A Study of the Prophetic Career of Mohammad"Much is known about the life of Muhammad.  In 1851, the French scholar Ernest Renan wrote that Muhammad lived "in the full light of history."  Muhammad's first biographer was Muhammad Ibn Ishag (704-773 A.D.) who wrote "Sirat Rasul Allah",  a work which has not survived.  No finished biography of Muhammad appeared until 150 years after his death in Arabia.According to tradition, Muhammad was born in Mecca on April 20, 570 A.D.  Shi'ites say he was born on April 26th.  His full name was Muhammad Bin-Abdullah.  At the time Muhammad was born Muhammad's father was the chief of the pagan worshipping tribe of Koreish.  Muhammad's father was ‘Abd Allāh ibn ‘Abd al-Muttalib, of the family of Hashim (Shaiba ibn Hashim).  ‘Abd Allāh" means "slave of Allah". His father died soon after his son's birth--while he was out on a trading expedition. His father was the youngest son of Abdul Muttalib and the great-grandson of Kussai.  Muhammad was orphaned early in his life after his mother Amina died and was raised by his grandfather Abdul Muttalib, then chief of the Quraysh (Koreish) tribe, and his uncle Abu-Talib beginning at age 6.  Earlier, at about 5 years old while in the care of a Bedouin nurse named Halima Muhammad became subject to epileptic fits. The branch of the Quraysh tribe Muhammad belonged to was known as the Beni Hashem. At the age of nine the boy Muhammad mounted a camel and went on a merchandising expedition into Syria.  It was while with his grandfather and uncle that Muhammad learned learned to be lordly, and to exercise power, to fast, and to pray at certain specified times of the day.   The Quraysh tribe prayed to idols at sunrise, noon, and at sunset; and they faced the direction of the idol black stone and the Kaaba.While away from Arabia he saw the sacred places of the Jews. He stood on the spot where the King of Salem came out and did obeisance to Abraham. He was shown the place where his great mother, the bondwoman Hagar, went forth leading Ishmael by the hand. He saw Damascus, city of the desert, and Sinai, the mountain of the law. Then he returned to Mecca full of visions and dreams. His teen years were as a shepherd and an attendant of caravans.At the age of 20 Muhammad was hired by a wealthy woman named Khadija (or Khadeejah) to manage her late husband's caravan business.  When Muhammad was 25 he married Khadija; six children were born to them, but only one survived to adulthood; his beloved daughter Fatima.  While in the caravan business Muhammad happened to make many journeys to Syria and Palestine.  During this time Muhammad became acquainted with both Jews and Christians.  Later, the monk-like Muhammad would cause things to be written in the Koran about both Jewish and Christian history, which shows that Muhammad did not possess an intellect befitting a historian.  It has also been thought that Muhammad could not read or write.  In fact, the Qur'an says Muhammad was illiterate (Ummi) in Surah 7:157.  These Qur'an (Koran) entries you will see below are marred with gross errors and inattention to detail.  This marriage to the much older Khadija, who was then 40 years old and who already had been married twice proved very fortunate to Muhammad.  Muhammad suddenly became equal to the richest men in Mecca.  While married to Khadija Muhammad did not marry any other wife.  However, after she died, Muhammad would show no restraint in his self gratification for lust with multiple wives, slaves, captives, and even his own adoptive son Zaid's wife.  Khadija gave Muhammad two sons, both of whom died young.  They both also had 4 daughters together.  Their names were Rockeya, Kolthum, Zeinale, and Fatima. In his older age, Muhammad used to color his hair red to hide his gray hair. He is said to have had a large hairy egg sized mole under his left shoulder.  Not being able to find any prophecy of Muhammad's coming in the Bible - many foolish Arabs have tried to 'tie' this hairy mole into Isaiah 9, where it is written, "the government shall be upon his shoulder".People used to ask Muhammad's favorite child bride Aisha how the Prophet lived at home. "Like an ordinary man," she answered. "He would sweep the house, stitch his own clothes, mend his own sandals; water the camels, milk the goats, help the servants at their work, and eat his meals with them; and he would go to fetch a thing we needed from the market."Aisha (only 6 when married) believed whatever Muhammad told her about his divine inspiration.  Muhammad claimed that he used to get revelations from Allah only when he slept with Aisha. Why is it that Gabriel did not bother to visit him when Muhammad spent nights with other wives in his harem?Reference: ahadith from Sahih Bukhari: "Muhammad used to get divine inspiration only in Aisha's bed"...3.47.755Aisha did not see Gabriel while Muhammad introduced Gabriel to her…4.54.440  Volume 4, Book 54, Number 440:Narrated Abu Salama:'Aisha said that the Prophet said to her "O 'Aisha' This is Gabriel and he sends his (greetings) salutations to you." 'Aisha said, "Salutations (Greetings) to him, and Allah's Mercy and Blessings be on him," and addressing the Prophet she said, "You see what I don't see."අපි අහලා තියෙනවා නේ සමහර අයට හොල්මන් පෙන්නෙ නැ කියලා මෙකත් එහෙම එකක්ද දන්නෙ නැ</blockquote>
