His Prophethood 
One of the ways in which a person proves his prophethood is honesty, whether it be in regards to incidents in the past, in their everyday life, or things to come in the future.  In addition to the Quran, there are many sayings of Prophet Muhammad which contain prophecies he made in his lifetime dealing with near and distant future.  Some of them have come true, others await fulfillment.  Hudhaifah, a disciple of Prophet Muhammad, tells us:


There are at least 160 known and confirmed prophecies of Prophet Muhammad which were fulfilled in his lifetime and the first generation after him.[1]  I will mention some here.

(1)  Preceding the Battle of Badr, the first and decisive confrontation with pagan Meccans in the second year of migration from Mecca in 623 CE, Prophet Muhammad foretold the precise spot every pagan Meccan soldier would fall.  Those who witnessed the battle saw the prophecy come true with their own eyes.[2] ("The battle in Mecca took place because the people there knew he was false and a liar. When he entered Mecca the first time the people had seen him for who he really was a bully and a thief, so he went back to the desert and bought himself an army with money from his first wife. And anyone who opposed him were killed on site.")

(2)  Prophet Muhammad prophesied the Battle of the Confederates (al-Ahzab) would be the last invasion the tribe of Quraish (the pagan Meccans) would launch against the Muslims.  It was fought in the fifth year of migration, 626 CE and was the last military conflict between the two sides.  All Meccans embraced Islam after a few years.[3] (Because if the they did not they were threatened with death " From the beginnings of the New Islamic Cult")

(3)  The Prophet informed his daughter, Fatimah, that she would be the first member of his family to die after him.  There are two prophecies in one: Fatima will outlive her father; Fatima will be the first member of his household to die after him.  Both were fulfilled.[4]("For the few months that she survived following the death of her father, Fatimah found herself indirectly at the center of political disunity. In other words she was killed to get her out of the way")

(4)  The Prophet Muhammad prophesied Jerusalem would be conquered after his death.[5]  The prophecy was fulfilled when, according to Encyclopedia Britannica: “In 638 the Muslim Caliph, Umar I, entered Jerusalem.”[6] ("This was never a Prophecy because that war had been raging for years and the city was taken back and forth several times, it was surrendered in 637") 

(5)  The Prophet Muhammad prophesied the conquest of Persia.[7]  It was conquered by Umar’s commander, Sa’ad ibn Abi Waqqas.  In the words of Encyclopedia Britannica: (Lie)

“…raids into Sasanian territory were quickly taken up by Muhammad’s Caliphs, or deputies, at Medina - Abu Bakr and Umar ibn al-Khattab… an Arab victory at Al-Qadisiyyah in 636/637 was followed by the sack of the Sasanian winter capital at Ctesiphon on the Tigris.  The Battle of Nahavand in 642 completed the Sasanids’ vanquishment.”[8] (No evidence during his time  did he ever mentioned this)

(6)  The Prophet Muhammad prophesied the conquest of Egypt.[9]  In the words of Encyclopedia Britannica:

“Amr… undertook the invasion in 639 with a small army of some 4,000 men (later reinforced).  With what seems astonishing speed the Byzantine forces were routed and had withdrawn from Egypt by 642… Various explanations have been given for the speed with which the conquest was achieved.”[10]  (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)

(7)  The Prophet foretold confrontation with the Turks.[11]  The first conflict took place in the caliphate of Umar in 22 AH.[12]  (No evidence during his time he ever mentioned this)

(8)  The Prophet foretold the first maritime battle to be undertaken by Muslims would be witnessed by Umm Haram, the first woman to participate in a naval expedition.  He also prophesied the first assault on Constantinople.[13]  (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)

The first maritime battle in Muslim history was in 28 AH in the rule of Mu’awiya.  It was witnessed by Umm Haram as foretold by Prophet Muhammad, and Yazid ibn Mu’awiya led the first attack on Constantinople in 52 AH.[14]  (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)

(9)  The prophecy that Rome, Persia, and Yemen will be conquered was made during the Battle of Confederates in 626 CE,[15]  under extreme circumstances, as is described by the Quran:  (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)

“[Remember] when they came at you from above you and from below you, and when eyes shifted [in fear], and hearts reached the throats and you assumed about God [various] assumptions.  There, the believers were tested and shaken with a severe shaking.  And [remember] when the hypocrites and those in whose hearts is disease said, ‘God and His Messenger did not promise us except delusion.’” (Quran 33:10-12) ("Copied from his Christian Wives with (His Messenger) added for context")

(10) Prophet Muhammad prophesied an imposter claiming to speak in the name of God would be killed at the hands of a righteous man in Muhammad’s lifetime.[16]  Al-Aswad al-Ansi, an imposter prophet in Yemen, was killed in the Prophet’s lifetime by Fayruz al-Daylami.[17]  (No evidence during his time did he ever mentioned this)

There are at least an additional 28 prophecies pertaining to the end times which are awaiting fulfillment. And the only way they would come true will be by men, not but by or never by divine inspiration. 

Indeed these well-documented prophecies are clear proofs of the Prophethood of Muhammad,  and that he was never a Prophet. But the people that came behind him and reveled in his blood lust and would have done anything to make him seem true will skewer the stories and falsely tell half truths and myths to make him seem more than he really was.  Anyone who is talked into believing in this type of story telling is just looking for some truth in their lives and this is a fascinating story to lure disadvantaged youths to "The Warrior Prophet" but it is a lie. A Liar , Thief , Murder, Rapist , cannot be a teacher of the word of a true God and or a representative of the greatness that is  Humanity. None of this type of behaviour has anything to do with the wonders of the Universe we live in and the beauty of life we experience everyday. All I see here is DEATH.

Islamic Child Brides (Part 2)

In this day and age we would even consider Muhammad a confused pedophile.  Muhammad's sexual appetite was legendary.  Even "Sahih Al-Bukhari" says Muhammad slept with his 11 wives in one night.  Muhammad is estimated by scholars to have had somewhere between 15-25 wives. All agree that he had 9 wives at the time of his death.  Whether you would class Muhammad as a pedophile by today's understanding is moot. The essential feature of pedophilia is that an individual is sexually attracted exclusively or in part to prepubescent children.  It can encompasses just desire, not just physical sexual activity.  We don't know what Muhammad's thought in life but his actions certainly don't look good: at a minimum history attests to Muhammad's gross moral turpitude and sexual abuse. We also know that Muhammad was a heartless terrorist who tortured people by cutting off their heads (over 700 Jews in Medina alone), their hands and their feet. He also made captives die of thirst, and made people bleed to death after cutting off their limbs.  Muhammad took captives attractive female slaves into his harem, and distributed the wives and children of his enemies to his followers as slaves.

Muhammad’s was sexually involved with at least 22 women. Although in the Quran he would limit his followers to having four wives, he himself took more than four wives and many concubines. The question of the number of women with whom Muhammad was sexually involved either as wives, concubines or devotees was made a point of contention by the Jews in Muhammad's day. Ali Dashti comments:

"All the commentaries agree that verse 57 of Surah 4 (on-Nesa) was sent down after the Jews criticized Mohammad's appetite for women, alleging that he had nothing to do except to take wives" (Ali Dashti, 23 Years, pp. 120-138).
Muhammad's first wife - Khadija, died a few years before he fled to Medina.  Later, he was encouraged to take another wife.  At the age of 49 he was betrothed to Aisha, age six in 624 A.D.  Aisha was his closest friend's, Abu Bakr's, daughter.  Abu Bakr was Muhammad’s daily companion and one of his first believers and successor of Muhammad. We can rightfully imagine 6 year old Aisha picking up her toys and moving to Muhammad's house, where he demurely waited until she was nine to have sexual intercourse with her.

In the first year of Muhammad's residence at Yathrib (now Medina) the "Prophet" who never prophesized, celebrated his marriage to Ayisha.  Ayisha was then only a young girl (jariyah) of 9-years old per Al-Bukhari, Abu Dawud and Tabari Aisha was 9 when they  Muhammad sexually consummated his marriage with her.  Muhammad 52.

Aisha herself testified to these facts:
“The messenger of God betrothed me when I was six years old and then married me when I was nine years old.”

Source: Sahih Muslim (by Imam al-Mawawy), vol. 3, p. 577.

Lying with a 9 year old girl in this century or in the 7th century is abominable. It was abominable then in Arabian society also. Particularly distasteful about Muhammad, is that after Muhammad deflowered this young 9 year old girl, he also taught that his followers were to follow his "sunnah" or lifestyle.  And his followers do follow the example of this warrior "prophet", who made no prophecies.  In the last century, the cruel Iranian Ayatollah Khomeini married a ten-year old girl, when he was 28 years old.  This "mad Ayatollah" called marriage to a prepubescent girl a "divine blessing".  He is quoted to have said to fellow Muslims; "Do your best to ensure your daughters do not see their first blood in your house".


Ayatollah Khomeini told the Muslim faithful that marrying a girl before she begins menstration was a "divine blessing."  He then told Muslim fathers: "Do your best to ensure that your daughters do not see their first blood in your house."

The following is the story of Safiyah Bint Huyeiy Ibn Akhtab, the Jewish woman who was captured when Muhammad’s troops attacked Kheibar and brought her to the Prophet as part of his share of the booty. This story, is reported in the Book of Tabaqat Safiyah was seventeen and very beautiful when Muslims killed her father, husband and many of her relatives. In the same day the Prophet of Allah wanted to sleep with her. Here is the exact text of the story:

She was groomed and made-up for the Prophet by Umm Sulaim, the mother of Anas ibn Malik. They spent the night there. Abu Ayyub al-Ansari guarded the tent of the Prophet the whole night. When, in the early dawn, the Prophet saw Abu Ayyub strolling up and down, he asked him what he meant by this sentry-go; he replied: "I was afraid for you with this young lady. You had killed her father, her husband and many of her relatives, and till recently she was an unbeliever. I was really afraid for you on her account". The Prophet prayed for Abu Ayyub al-Ansari (Ibn Hisham, p. 766) Safiyah had requested the Prophet to wait till he had gone a stage away from Khaibar. "Why?" asked the Prophet. "I was afraid for you on account of the Jews who still happened to be near at Khaibar!"

The reason Safiyah rejected the sexual advances of the 57-year-old Muhammad should be obvious to any objective person. I believe most women prefer to mourn than jump into bed with the killer of their father, husband and many relatives on the same day of their death. But the fact that the prophet of Allah could not contain his sexual urges for one day to let this young girl grieve, says a lot of his thinking and moral character.

“The next day a Walima (we dding-feast) was arranged on behalf of the Prophet…

Note that the historian is saying that the wedding took place one day after the prophet got private with Safiyah and made his moves to have sex with her. This presented no problem for the Muhammad as he had his Allah reveal a verse personally agreeable to himself saying it is okay to sleep with women captured in war without marrying them even if they are married.

“And all married women (are forbidden unto you) save those (captives) whom your right hands possess…” (Qur'an 4:24 )
Non-consent forced Marriages in Islam:

What a disgraceful and degrading thing a temporary, contractual marriage is for a woman! This is something which Muhammad made lawful according to all the scholars and chroniclers without exception. What an insult to a woman whom Muhammad stripped of her humanity and dignity in order to become a mere instrument for man’s enjoyment!

Islamic law has codified this principle of non-consent for under-age women based on Muhammad’s precedent:

“A father may give consent to have his young virgin daughter married without obtaining her permission, for she does not have a choice, exactly as Abu Bakr El Sadiq did to his daughter Aisha, when she was six years old. He married her to the prophet Muhammad without her permission.”



According to all Muslim scholars (especially in Sahih Muslim) the temporary, contractual marriage was made lawful by Muhammad simply to satisfy the sexual passions of his soldiers. The “marriage” only had to last 3 days, after which the woman could be deserted and left without any rights. Only the fact that it is temporary a “marriage” separates it from outright fornication and adultery (forbidden in Islam), but there is practically no difference. It was practiced during the beginning of the Islamic era (during the caliphates of Abu Bakr and Ibn Abu ‘Umar) and is continued in practice today by over 100 million Shi’ite Muslims worldwide.
Concerning this practice the following Islamic authority states:

“While in the army, Allah’s Apostle came to us and said, ‘You have been allowed to have Muta (“pleasure”), so do it.’ If a man and a woman agree to marry temporarily, their marriage should last for three nights …”

Lessons in Islam (Part 1)

The Qur’an talks only about scourging and exiling the adulterer, yet Muhammad himself stoned some adulterers. Thus, stoning the married adulterer (male or female) and not flogging them, has become Islamic law. The reason for that is that Muhammad said and did so.

Under Iran's brutal Islamic Sharia Laws, women usually get stoned for crimes against chastity. While men who even murder someone in a fit of rage in these cases, usually get only a few years in jail.

 

Under Iran's strict Sharia law, women sentenced to execution by stoning have their hands bound behind their back. They are wrapped from head to toe in sheets before being seated in a pit. The ditch is filled up to their breasts with dirt, and the soil is packed tightly before people assemble to execute the woman by pitching rocks at her head and upper body. 

 

Article 104 of the Iranian Penal Code states that the stones used for execution should "not be large enough to kill the person by one or two strikes, nor should they be so small that they could not be defined as stones."

Ironically, the court sentenced the woman's brother Abu Bakr Ghorbany and husband Mohammad Daneshfar to only six years in jail for killing her lover. According to Sharia law, murder carries a lesser penalty than "crimes against chastity."

Benevolence and Forgiveness?

One time a woman was brought to Muhammad who had committed adultery.  They asked him, "What shall we do with her?  Muhammad said, "Go away. Bring her back after the baby is born."  So they brought her back after the baby was born, and Muhammad said, "Let her go and nurse the child. Bring her back when the child is two years old."  So they brought her back, and Muhammad said, "Take the baby from her and kill her."  And that is what they did.
