DOES MUHAMMAD THE ISLAMIC PROPHET REALLY EXIST OR MYTH

Many theologians and historians reveal that the historical evidence of the actual existence of the prophet Muhammad [571-632AD] cannot be verified.

There appears to be no supporting evidence that a known prophet was active in Arabia in the sixth century.

There is no mention of Muhammad anywhere in stones, scripts, monuments, or other sources from the Middle East during his actual lifetime. No mention of Muslims living in the area is found either.

Buildings and remains show that no reference to Muslims, Islam or Muhammad existed anywhere in the region Muhammad was supposed to have lived in to prove Muhammad’s historical presence.

The first mention of Muhammad doesn’t appear until decades after Muhammad’s presumed death and only begins to take shape under the active rule of the brutal, cruel and conquering Abd al-Malik ibn Marwan [646–705AD] the 5th Umayyad Caliph.

In 1972, during the restoration of the great mosque of Sarna, the capital of Yemen, workers discovered a mash of old parchments.

Dr Gerd R Puin, a Quranic expert studied the find. Dr Gerd dated it at between 705 and 715 AD. It is the oldest datable Quran in the world but was created 70 years after Mohammed's death.

Fragments from nearly 1000 different Quran’s had been studied and compared with the Sarna Quran and the dates could be well established.

The Sarna Quran shows that verses and chapters had been changed, reformulated and rearranged. So the Quran was not a single product or a single entity that was fixed by 650 but developed much, much later hence the overlaying of texts in different dialects with over 30 different meanings.

– Abd al-Malik, the Umayyad Caliph, compiles the Quran from fragmented plagiarism taken from ancient Christianity, Judaism and Zoroastrian – the common religions of the region during Abd al-Malik’s raids and looting sprees.

– The individual words in the oldest Quran in the world [705-715 AD, seventy years after Muhammad's death], have been washed off and rewritten with layered revisions. Words have been changed, and entire chapters re-arranged.

– Original text is unstable and can have over 30 different meanings, showing it was not transferred word by word. Most likely these many different layers and changes come from adapting plagiarized materials Abd al-Malik came across in his lootings from existing religions. The identical passages can be found in other religious teachings, which were more than 500 years older than the Quran.

– Abd al-Malik then began to make the first efforts to spread Islamic teachings, conquering and looting many regions, killing entire tribes and people to invade their towns and areas.

– The prayers towards Mecca were likely established because Abd al-Malik was born in Mecca, and was the ruler and wanted to be worshipped and honoured as one.

Muhammad was a word/name used as a term of veneration. Leaders in medieval times were often referred to as ‘divine’ personalities to avoid being questioned by the people. Abd al-Malik was born in Mecca, like Muhammad.

It can go even further to claim that Abd al-Malik and Muhammad are probably the same person.

Abdul Malik invaded Medina with a 12,000-strong Syrian army of which 10,000 died, exactly like Muhammad. Malik also built the Dome of the Rock over the tomb of Abraham in Jerusalem to show his conquest and supremacy over the Jews.

Why was this necessary if the area was already made Islamic under Muhammad’s invasions over one century earlier?

Muhammad is said to have flown on a winged donkey to Jerusalem.

Why would Abdul Malik invade Medina when Muhammad had already done this and presumably turned it Islamic 100 years prior?

Incidentally, the descriptions of Abd al-Malik and Muhammad are almost identical.
