His teachings are always obscure, though sometimes mixed with  morals and sometimes tainted with misconception about the basics of a  true religion.   A  false prophet, even if he seems to promote a divine call, never  succeeds, because it is not logically accepted that God would allow a  person to do such things in His name.   There is no reference throughout history to a false prophet who successfully established a false religion, simply because he would profess in God's name though God did not appoint him as a prophet, so God would reveal his lies.   If  a false prophet is faced with hardships, afflictions, attempts on his  life and some failures, he would certainly waive his call. Historical  archives are full of stories of those false prophets who would leave  their calls when they would be afflicted with any problem. On the other  hand, the true prophet would always remain steady, strong and ready to  give his life to impart God's word. Prophets were always persecuted,  tortured and even killed.   Among the prophets, the Prophet Muhammad (saw) stands as the one who was afflicted most, yet his soul was indefatigable,  the one who was persecuted most, yet he adhered to his call,  the one who was tortured most yet his he never lost spirit,  the one who faced  more attempts on his life yet he remained, brave and never cared about the swords and daggers hidden everywhere awaiting him.   He alone faced a world of idolaters, never-ended grudge and rancour.  Prophet Muhammad's name is equal to patience, infinite patience.  He had no certain goal for himself, he abhorred wealth though he didn't ban it.        He  never despaired, he never slackened, but rather within only twenty  three years, he changed a nation of polytheists into a civilized nation  of monotheists, who carried his teachings to the world.   The  Prophet Muhammad (saw) was born an orphan, poor and never indulged  himself in worldly desires during his boyhood, nor did he play with his  comrades in their games. When he became a prophet, he was tortured,  persecuted, and he faced murder six times. He spent all his wealth on  the poor and his call, and he would spend three months living on water  and dry dates. If he could not find any dates, he would fast and he  would put a rope around his stomach to kill the pains of hunger. His bed  was a carpet made of straw, and his pillow was filled with poor fibers  that always left impressions on his skin. There was only two dirham in  his house when he died, and even then he was worried about what to do  with them, and kept asking his wife to give them in charity.</blockquote>
