Muhammad (peace be upon him) was real, there is actual documentation. Whether or not you believe he was a prophet, there is historical proof of him. =)
No, but I could be wrong, I hate the arrogance some people exude, especially the Christians, they think their God is the only one possible and that we are all wrong, but you know what, if they could see past the end of their noses they would know that anything is possible.
he was a real person yes just like Jesus was a human i don’t know if either were truly divine in any way…i am a christian and i think if one was the other must be
Muhammad and Jesus could have actually been real people. That does not mean they are descendants of God just because they said they were. We have people that claim the know, see or are related to God all the time. A small few were able to convey there message in such compelling way that people started to follow. We do not have any new religions today because of SCIENCE.
no Muhammad prophet of Islam is not real i believe jesus paid the price fr my sins cause we could never get to heaven bye being good s God pad the price he loved so mush he would take or sins on the cross than on the third day jesus rose again jesus gave it as a free gift for everyone to accept it and have Eternal life say jesus i have sinned against you please forgive me im sorry come into my heart and be lord over my life i believe you died for my sins and rose on the third day jesus forgives you no matter what you he washes away our sins and forgives them and forgets about them all have sinned and fallen shirt of the glory of god
It’s interesting how you lack the understanding of your own Quran which acknowledges Jesus as a prophet but while he is a prophet he is more than a prophet. While on the other hand Muhammad may have been a prophet but a false one. Why? If any partiquilar prophet speaks evil against Israel the land or the people, that prophet is not sent forth by G-d but is pronouncing predictions or threats in his own name.
The problem for a Muslim is that Jesus is regarded as their number 2 Prophet. Prove the non-existence of Jesus and you disprove Mo-ham-mad’s Prophet-hood.
Jesus(pbuh) may seem unreal because of what is written in the Bible about his miracles. He did speak from the cradle, as is in the Qur’an, but the Bible says he was resurrected, which is wrong. Hence, it is quite natural to suspect whether he walked on water and other things or not.
Nevertheless, a person cannot believe in Islam if he/she does not believe in the existance of Prophet Jesus(pbuh). I know your question isn’t regarding belief in Islam, but it is relevant, because believing that Prophet Muhammad(saw) was real, and a prophet, indicates acknowledgment of Islam.
"…and those who are firmly rooted in knowledge say: We believe in it, it is all from our Lord; and none do mind except those having understanding." (3:7 Qur’an)
•Islam, a religion that teaches us there is only one God that has the right to be worshiped and everything else that exists is God’s creation. Further more Islam teaches us that God exists outside His creation. That God is unique, has no son nor partner, there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him, He is All powerful, none can harm or benefit him and none has the right to be worshipped but Him alone
Muhammad (peace be upon him)
In 610 CE God (Allah) commissioned the Muhammad son of Abdullah (peace be upon him) to be His last and final Prophet and Messenger to mankind, in the city of Makkah (Mecca) in present day Saudi Arabia.
Every Prophet was sent exclusively to his own people, but Allah sent His Messenger Muhammad (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) to all of mankind as Allaah said (interpretation of the meaning):
"Allah revealed to His messenger the Quran by which to guide people And We have not sent you (O Muhammad) except as a giver of glad tidings and a Warner to all mankind, but most of men know not"
[Saba 34:28]

The Biblical prophecies on the advent of the Prophet Muhammad are evidence of the truth of Islam for people who believe in the Bible.
In Deuteronomy 18, Moses stated that God told him: “I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their brothers; I will put my words in his mouth, and he will tell them everything I command him. If anyone does not listen to my words that the prophet speaks in my name, I myself will call him to account.” (Deuteronomy 18:18-19).1
From these verses we conclude that the prophet in this prophecy must have the following three characteristics:
1) That he will be like Moses.
2) That he will come from the brothers of the Israelites, i.e. the Ishmaelites.
3) That God will put His words in to the mouth of this prophet and that he will declare what God commands him.
Let us examine these three characteristics in more depth:
1) A prophet like Moses:
There were hardly any two prophets who were so much alike as Moses and Muhammad . Both were given a comprehensive law and code of life. Both encountered their enemies and were victorious in miraculous ways. Both were accepted as prophets and statesmen. Both migrated following conspiracies to assassinate them. Analogies between Moses and Jesus overlook not only the above similarities but other crucial ones as well. These include the natural birth, the family life, and death of Moses and Muhammad but not of Jesus. Moreover Jesus was regarded by his followers as the Son of God and not exclusively as a prophet of God, as Moses and Muhammad were and as Muslims believe Jesus was. So, this prophecy refers to the Prophet Muhammad and not to Jesus, because Muhammad is more like Moses than Jesus.
Also, one notices from the Gospel of John that the Jews were waiting for the fulfillment of three distinct prophecies. The first was the coming of Christ. The second was the coming of Elijah. The third was the coming of the Prophet. This is obvious from the three questions that were posed to John the Baptist: “Now this was John’s testimony, when the Jews of Jerusalem sent priests and Levites to ask him who he was. He did not fail to confess, but confessed freely, “I am not the Christ.” They asked him, “Then who are you? Are you Elijah?” He said, “I am not.” “Are you the Prophet?” He answered, “No.” (John 1:19-21). If we look in a Bible with cross-references, we will find in the marginal notes where the words “the Prophet” occur in John 1:21, that these words refer to the prophecy of Deuteronomy 18:15 and 18:18.2 We conclude from this that Jesus Christ is not the prophet mentioned in Deuteronomy 18:18.
2) From the brothers of the Israelites:
Abraham had two sons, Ishmael and Isaac (Genesis 21). Ishmael became the grandfather of the Arab nation, and Isaac became the grandfather of the Jewish nation. The prophet spoken of was not to come from among the Jews themselves, but from among their brothers, i.e. the Ishmaelites. Muhammad , a descendant of Ishmael, is indeed this prophet.
Also, Isaiah 42:1-13 speaks of the servant of God, His “chosen one” and “messenger” who will bring down a law. “He will not falter or be discouraged till he establishes justice on earth. In his law the islands will put their hope.” (Isaiah 42:4). Verse 11, connects that awaited one with the descendants of Kedar. Who is Kedar? According to Genesis 25:13, Kedar was the second son of Ishmael, the ancestor of the Prophet M

you are right about the evidence
but
the whole god thing and him being a prophet is pure speculation
i do not believe god was talking to him because i do not believe in a personal god
he might have thought so
but he was more than likely a mad man or an oppurtunist
